vnc makes no relevant difference. command = ‘screen’ below shows program ‘screen’ has a ‘pi’ user process open on /dev/ttyUSB0 at the moment. not weewxd. probably left over from earlier troubleshooting. kill it with “sudo killall screen”. check if any weewxd’s or screen’s hanging around with “ps -ef | grep -e weewxd -e screen”. kill them if you find any. you should now be back to a clean state with /devttyUSB0 ready for opening. do “sudo lsof /dev/ttyUSB0” to be sure
