Simplest thing to do is a test. Save your old db (you want to do this anyway) and run the steps you mentioned. Then check the schema for the new updated one and verify it's using the big schema. The number of fields is far higher so it's an easy thing to check for.
echo ".schema" | sqlite3 mydbname | wc -l Mine using the big schema returns a value of '114' for the above command. I think the original one was 50 or so (it's been forever so I forget) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
