I recently had to rebuild my weewx raspberry pi. I can no longer get weewx
to run using sdr/rtl_433 as a service or on boot. But it works when I run
weewx manually. I am trying to use weewx 4.5.1 but was using 4.2 without
issue.
when I run
sudo weewxd
this is what I see in log (it works!)

Exiting...
I get the same result when I try to run weewx at boot. Running sudo rtl_433
also
works, so I think its installed correctly.
Any ideas?
