OK. So when run directly rtl_433 runs as expected. I appreciate that
running WeeWX directly resulted in no output, I suspect that is due to the
sdr driver (for one reason or another) not providing WeeWX with any loop
packets (the only console output you will get when running WeeWX is loop
packets and archive records and if WeeWX is not receiving any loop packets
then you will see nothing). However, the last portion of the log you
attached showed the sdr driver picking up data from your station:

Sure, no data is passed to WeeWX via loop packets but that is likely
because you have no sensor map defined:
weewx[6158] INFO user.sdr: sensor map is {}
you can confirm the lack of a sensor map by looking at the [SDR] stanza in
/etc/weewx/weewx.conf, is there a [[sensor_map]] stanza and if so what are
its contents. I am betting there either is no [[sensor_map]] stanza or it
is empty. I would follow the 'How to diagnose problems' steps in the SDR
driver readme <https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-sdr> (but you can jump
down to running the driver directly (as distinct from running WeeWX
directly) as you have already proved rtl_433). Note that since you have a
package install you wil use the following command to run the driver
directly:
$ sudo PYTHONPATH=/usr/share/weewx python /usr/share/weewx/user/sdr.py
Assuming this works you should be able to determine the sensor map from
this output and once put into weewx.conf things shoudl be back to normal.
