Hi Chris,
I guess you followed the documentation for installing on a Pi?
http://www.weewx.com/docs/debian.htm
In that case first uninstall WeeWX {should keep configuration}:
sudo apt remove weewx
Also keep in mind that the WLL driver uses the Python *requests* library.
Install it using:
sudo apt install python3-requests
Then re-install according to the page linked above. In the first section
only run the command that's labeled "*For Debian10 and later, use python3*".
Skip the following line for Python 2.
Follow all other sections as usual.
