My first post here and I'm confused already. Must be something to do with
my age! If I'm doing something wrong just dig a hole and bury me.
This is advice on a fix rather than a call for help.
Ok, I'm setting up weewx v4.2 on a RPi4 as a new installation. I had been
running v3.8 on the computer but it wasn't live, but worked fine. Weewx 4.2
appears to be working fine (with simulator) but my first extension, cwxn
0.4 bombed out with an error ...
$ sudo tail /var/log/syslog

My online search for "except Exception, e:" revealed a change in syntax for
Python v3.x and, after changing line 94 in cwxn.py to read "except
Exception *as* e:" the extension now works as intended.
Thought mwall might like to know.
BTW, cwxn formats humidity to 3 digits whereas the aprs spec calls for just
2. If cwxn is used for aprs the last digit is truncated making 20% (020)
humidity appear as 2% (02). For my use I modified cwxn.py - problem solved.
