Assuming the upgrade to 4.7.0 goes OK, if you do run into issues with WeeWX just edit weewx.conf, set debug = 1, save weewx.conf and restart WeeWX. Let WeeWX run for at least three archive periods/report cycles and then post a log extract showing the entire WeeWX startup through until the three report cycles complete. That way we can see exactly how WeeWX is configured and exactly what it is doing.
