Last bit of info . . . upgraded to weewx v3.8.0 and it made no difference.
It appears weewx is core dumping on exit (after issuing the "sudo
/etc/init.d/weewx stop" command), and that wee-import is doing the same
thing on its start-up. Problem is, they dump into a directory that's
deleted by the CentOS abrt-srvr before I can get at it.
There are ways to reconfigure CentOS to save this core dump, etc. However,
I want to be sure I don't have a misconfiguration somewhere in one of
weewx's config files before I start chasing after linux permissions or
whatever. This is the infuriating scenario where I (think) changed nothing
in months and then things went awry once I tried to use we-import. Has
anyone else used wee-import lately?
Bottom line is https://www.ve1dx.net/ seems to be running fine now with
repaired hardware and v3.8.0, but I can't import the missing 13 days of
data from WU using wee-import from either v3.7.1 or v3.8.0.
Andrew:
You email/post just came in. I agree it makes no sense! When either weewx
is shut down OR when wee_import is invoked, the following entry is put in
my system log:
Dec 14 13:25:44 norge abrt-server[17163]: Package 'weewx' isn't signed with
proper key
Dec 14 13:25:44 norge abrt-server[17163]: 'post-create' on
'/var/spool/abrt/Python-2017-12-14-13:25:44-17158' exited with 1
Dec 14 13:25:44 norge abrt-server[17163]: Deleting problem directory
'/var/spool/abrt/Python-2017-12-14-13:25:44-17158'
I's possible my linux system is misconfigured somehow and the improper key
message in the log is a red herring. This thing works now, other than I
can't run wee_import. It's only 13 days of data and if I never get
wee_import to work for this instance, it won't make much difference.
However, it may manifest itself more seriously in a different scenario if I
can't find and fix the root cause.
I just ran wee-debug and attached the output. If one of you weewx gurus
can assure me nothing there looks out of place, I'll start Googling keys
and permissions . . . I need to get a handle on what's up.
