Not a great problem description for us to work on, but my guess is that
your old db is the old wview-compatible schema and the new software expects
the newer wview-extended schema.
Easiest way to check your db is see how many tables are in your db:
echo ".schema" | sqlite3 /home/weewx/archive/weewx.sdb | wc -l
If you see 114 lines there, you have the extended schema. I think the
number is 40 or so with the old wview-compatible schema.
Converting from old to new/bigger schema is documented in the wiki
