Well, I ran into a problem.....
I installed weewx 4.2.0 by yum:
rpm --import http://weewx.com/keys.html
curl -s http://weewx.com/yum/weewx-el7.repo | sudo tee
/etc/yum.repos.d/weewx.repo
yum install weewx
cd /etc/weewx
wee_config --config=weewx.conf
Using configuration file weewx.conf
Internal logic error in config.py
I manually edited the weewx.conf file and added a section [Ultimeter] with
the following I found on the web:
[Station]
location = "Fremont Comm Site, Salida CO"
latitude = 38.446630
longitude = -106.010750
altitude = 11000, foot
station_type = Simulator
station_url = http://www.cmrg.org
rain_year_start = 1
week_start = 6
[Ultimeter]
# Connection type: serial or ethernet
type = serial
# If the connection type is serial, a port must be specified:
# Debian, Ubuntu, Redhat, Fedora, and SuSE:
# /dev/ttyUSB0 is a common USB port name
# /dev/ttyS0 is a common serial port name
# BSD:
# /dev/cuaU0 is a common serial port name
port = /dev/serial-0
# If the connection type is ethernet, an IP Address/hostname is
required:
#host = wlip.ka0wuc.org
######################################################
# The rest of this section rarely needs any attention.
# You can safely leave it "as is."
######################################################
# Serial baud rate (usually 19200)
baudrate = 2400
# TCP port (when using the WeatherLinkIP)
#tcp_port = 22222
# TCP send delay (when using the WeatherLinkIP):
#tcp_send_delay = 0.5
# The id of your ISS station (usually 1). If you use a wind meter
connected
# to a anemometer transmitter kit, use its id
iss_id = 1
# How long to wait for a response from the station before giving up (in
# seconds; must be greater than 2)
timeout = 30
# How long to wait before trying again (in seconds)
wait_before_retry = 1.2
# How many times to try before giving up:
max_tries = 50
#model_type = 2
# The driver to use:
driver = weewx.drivers.ultimeter
Then I ran the wee_config:
cd /etc/weewx
wee_config --reconfigure --config=weewx.conf
Using configuration file weewx.conf
Enter a brief description of the station, such as its location. For
example:
Santa's Workshop, North Pole
description [Fremont Comm Site, Salida CO]:
Specify altitude, with units 'foot' or 'meter'. For example:
35, foot
12, meter
altitude [11000, foot]:
Specify latitude in decimal degrees, negative for south.
latitude [38.446630]:
Specify longitude in decimal degrees, negative for west.
longitude [-106.010750]:
You can register your station on weewx.com, where it will be included
in a map. You will need a unique URL to identify your station (such as a
website, or WeatherUnderground link).
Include station in the station registry (y/n)? [n]:
Indicate the preferred units for display: ['us', 'metric']
units [us]:

So, at this point I'm stuck.
Any suggestions?
thanks
