The problem is not with attempting to upgrade weewx. There are a few things that have happened that have motivated me to upgrade, hardware, software, and how I go about using weewx. These include unreliable recovery from periodic power outages, webhost interference in how page and image caching are managed, and my desire to completely revamp how I display weather data on my site. I've therefore decided that the least miserable path is to start from scratch. FWIW the version of weewx that I am running is from the very first set of releases, maybe even a pre-release version (reliable nonetheless). A few years back when I was thinking of upgrading I was warned that it would not be a smooth transition due to architectural changes that had been made. Even if that were not the case, I would still want to start from scratch this time around. Thanks, joe
