I'm guessing your clock is wrong initially and you probably have that lame
fake-hwclock thing set up on the pi (?)
bin/weewx/engine.py has the following code in it:
-------------------------------------------------
if self.thread and self.thread.isAlive():
thread_age = time.time() - self.launch_time
if thread_age < self.max_wait:
syslog.syslog(syslog.LOG_INFO,
"engine: Launch of report thread aborted: "
"existing report thread still running")
return
Make sure 'fake-hwclock' is not enabled on your system, and that ntpd 'is'
enabled to start on boot.
