I have seen something like this before (issue #579 <https://github.com/weewx/weewx/issues/579>).
The problem is being caused by the deep copying of a ConfigObj structure. ConfigObj tries to fill in the interpolations during the copy but, of course, 'asctime' is not available --- it's only available when logging something. This was fixed, but not released yet. In the meantime, you have two choices: 1. You can work around the problem by changing the values in weeutil/logger.py to what you need; or 2. You can use the current (totally runable) version in GitHub. -tk On Wed, Sep 30, 2020 at 2:48 PM vince <vinceska...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Wednesday, September 30, 2020 at 11:50:45 AM UTC-7, Tom Quinn wrote: >> >> that seems to work just fine...
