Well I knew that was too good to be true. May 26 10:30:21 RPI3 weewx[21915]: sftpgenerator: upload not possible: No module named pysftp
although the problematic pip install of pysftp "suggested" that module was installed, to wit: > Successfully built pysftp pynacl bcrypt > Failed to build cryptography > ERROR: Could not build wheels for cryptography which use PEP 517 and > cannot be installed directly > so I thought since it built the pysftp it would be available for this.
