I did a little poking around my syslog this morning and noticed the following for my VP2 setup. I notice the same pattern every 5 minute archive period.
WeeWX is 4.5.1 set to debug=1 with a serial logger connected via serial2usb converter. * the starting index goes 0,1,2,3,4 then rolls back to 0 in subsequent archive periods * the Retry #0 failed is always there followed by a 'rude wakeup' message * the DMPAFT complete message is interesting - does that show the oldest record in the logger ? Looks like about 10 days which should be about what the logger can hold No problems I'm aware of, I just thought I'd ask for a little explanation if anybody knows... #---- grep -i vantage /var/log/syslog ----- Jul 27 07:50:16 debian weewx[13327] DEBUG weewx.drivers.vantage: Getting archive packets since 2021-07-27 07:45:00 PDT (1627397100) Jul 27 07:50:17 debian weewx[13327] DEBUG weewx.drivers.vantage: Retry #0 failed Jul 27 07:50:19 debian weewx[13327] DEBUG weewx.drivers.vantage: Rude wake up of console successful Jul 27 07:50:19 debian weewx[13327] DEBUG weewx.drivers.vantage: Retrieving 1 page(s); starting index= 0 Jul 27 07:50:21 debian weewx[13327] DEBUG weewx.drivers.vantage: DMPAFT complete: page timestamp 2021-07-18 10:35:00 PDT (1626629700) less than final timestamp 2021-07-27 07:50:00 PDT (1627397400) Jul 27 07:50:21 debian weewx[13327] DEBUG weewx.drivers.vantage: Catch up complete.
