I purchased a new DVP2 with a Davis USB data logger. Since I don't have a RPi yet, I've connected it to the laptop running Ubuntu 18.04. Freshly installed weewx.
I have exactly the same issue as reported above. Is it possible the Davis USB data logger is set to something like "USB Express" mode and that's why it doesn't work? I remember I had to use the Windows software (probably Weatherlink?) to switch the mode to standard USB in my DVP2 at home. Thanks for the hints.
