Hello, When weewx is starting up, it is using the configuration file /etc/weewx/weewx.conf. Is the snippet from weewx.conf that you posted from that same file?
The log suggests that you have an entry like latitude = 52.9444 1.2110 but that's not what is appearing in the snippet. -tk On Fri, May 1, 2020 at 6:17 AM Phil Owers <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Guys > Just upgraded from v4.0.18b to version 4 and it has stopped weewx > From the logs > > May 1 14:05:56 raspberrypi systemd[1]: Stopped LSB: weewx weather system. > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi systemd[1]: Starting LSB: weewx weather > system... > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1136] INFO __main__: Initializing weewx > version 4.0.0 > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1136] INFO __main__: Using Python 3.7.3 > (default, Dec 20 2019, 18:57:59) #012[GCC 8.3.0] > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1136] INFO __main__: Platform > Linux-4.19.97-v7l+-armv7l-with-debian-10.3 > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1136] INFO __main__: Locale is > 'en_GB.UTF-8' > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1136] INFO __main__: PID file is > /var/run/weewx.pid > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] INFO __main__: Using configuration > file /etc/weewx/weewx.conf > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] INFO weewx.engine: Loading station > type Vantage (weewx.drivers.vantage) > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1124]: Starting weewx weather system: > weewx. > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi systemd[1]: Started LSB: weewx weather system. > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: Caught > unrecoverable exception: > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** could > not convert string to float: '52.9444 1.2110' > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** > Traceback (most recent call last): > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** > File "/usr/share/weewx/weewxd", line 148, in main > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** > engine = weewx.engine.StdEngine(config_dict) > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** > File "/usr/share/weewx/weewx/engine.py", line 72, in __init__ > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** > self.preLoadServices(config_dict) > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** > File "/usr/share/weewx/weewx/engine.py", line 112, in preLoadServices > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** > self.stn_info = weewx.station.StationInfo(self.console, > **config_dict['Station']) > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** > File "/usr/share/weewx/weewx/station.py", line 51, in __init__ > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** > self.latitude_f = float(stn_dict['latitude']) > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** > ValueError: could not convert string to float: '52.9444 1.2110' > May 1 14:05:59 raspberrypi weewx[1140] CRITICAL __main__: **** > Exiting. > > When I look in the weewx.conf file it had the lat an lon figures of > 52.9444 and 1.2110 > I changed the values to mine of 52.944 and 1.211 (not sure where the extra > digits came from) stopped and restarted weewx but it still fails > The above is after I changed the weewx.conf file which has > > # WEEWX CONFIGURATION FILE > # > # Copyright (c) 2009-2019 Tom Keffer <[email protected]> > # See the file LICENSE.txt for your rights. > > ############################################################################## > # This section is for general configuration information. > # Set to 1 for extra debug info, otherwise comment it out or set to zero > debug = 0 > # Root directory of the weewx data file hierarchy for this station > WEEWX_ROOT = /home/weewx > # Whether to log successful operations > log_success = True > # Whether to log unsuccessful operations > log_failure = True > # How long to wait before timing out a socket (FTP, HTTP) connection > socket_timeout = 20 > # Do not modify this.
