Well, it took a couple of days, what with work .. and with idiotically
locking myself out of my new VM by changing the ssh port before I was sure
I could login on another session. Not done a newbie error like that in
while. :-P
Anyway, I have a CentOS 7 VM sitting ready to rock.
I install the prerequisites, and then grab weewx v. 3.8.0. Untar it, and
run ./setup.py build and then install it.
I install the start-up scripts into /etc/init.d even though it's CentOS 7
and thus systemd. Why they 'fixed' something that wasn't broken, I have no
idea. But that's another story.
I remember from the last time I installed this, there are issues with the
wmr300 driver, so I delve into my old e-mails from you guys, and get the
appropriate driver -
[root@weather bin]# ./wee_config --list-drivers
Module name Driver name Version Status
weewx.drivers.acurite AcuRite 0.24
weewx.drivers.cc3000 CC3000 0.16
weewx.drivers.fousb FineOffsetUSB 1.9
weewx.drivers.simulator Simulator 3.0
weewx.drivers.te923 TE923 0.24
weewx.drivers.ultimeter Ultimeter 0.18
weewx.drivers.vantage Vantage 3.0.10
weewx.drivers.wmr100 WMR100 3.3.3
weewx.drivers.wmr200 WMR200 3.3.4
weewx.drivers.wmr300 WMR300 0.19rc6
weewx.drivers.wmr9x8 WMR9x8 3.2.2
weewx.drivers.ws1 WS1 0.25
weewx.drivers.ws23xx WS23xx 0.26rc1
weewx.drivers.ws28xx WS28xx 0.35
I think my issue comes from the use of the dot (or 'period') as a directory
separator, because I am so used to the slash.
[root@weather bin]# grep wmr300 /home/weewx/weewx.conf
driver = bin.weewx.drivers.wmr300
The driver...
[root@weather drivers]# pwd && ls -l wmr300*
/home/weewx/bin/weewx/drivers
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 63025 May 2 10:00 wmr300.py
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 56413 May 2 10:01 wmr300.pyc
Yet when I fire her up...

So the problem is either in the weewx.conf or in the placement of the py
file. I suspect the former. But I get the same error if the weewx.conf
file has the driver as ..
driver = bin.weewx.drivers.wmr300
... or as ..
driver = weewx.drivers.wmr300
... or as ...
driver = weewx.drivers.wmr300
... or as ...
driver = drivers.wmr300
... or as ...
driver = drivers.wmr300
... or even as ...
driver = wmr300
Is there any particular reason why the driver location can't be defined at
the top of the config file much the same as..
WEEWX_ROOT = /home/weewx
.. and then all directories come by definition under that? I would then
expect ..
driver = bin.weewx.drivers.wmr300
... to work. But it doesn't.
