I tested dropping a couple of columns like that and started getting errors:
such as:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/weewx/bin/weewx/reportengine.py", line 202, in run
obj.start()
File "/home/weewx/bin/weewx/reportengine.py", line 285, in start
self.run()
File "/home/weewx/bin/weewx/imagegenerator.py", line 41, in run
self.genImages(self.gen_ts)
File "/home/weewx/bin/weewx/imagegenerator.py", line 180, in genImages
aggregate_interval=aggregate_interval)
File "/home/weewx/bin/weewx/xtypes.py", line 91, in get_series
raise weewx.UnknownType(obs_type)
weewx.UnknownType: radiation
radiation was a field I knew I would never use. Before I dropped anything
I dumped the database so was easy to put the columns back in including most
of the data.
So I was convinced there was more to this that simply dropping columns from
the database.
This was where I knew I was in deep over my head.
