So I tried something to that effect, and still no dice. I referenced this
old thread that it looks like you may have been active in:
https://groups.google.com/g/weewx-user/c/_ysq-eyjJrM/m/mJFiwufeCwAJ
within bin/user/units.py I have:
import weewx
import weewx.units
weewx.units.obs_group_dict['extraTemp14'] = 'group_temperature'
weewx.units.obs_group_dict['extraHumid14'] = 'group_percent'
class Units(weewx.engine.StdService):
pass
Then in weewx.conf, I have:
[Engine]
# The following section specifies which services should be run and in
what order.
[[Services]]
prep_services = weewx.engine.StdTimeSynch, user.units.Units
data_services =
process_services = weewx.engine.StdConvert,
weewx.engine.StdCalibrate, weewx.engine.StdQC,
weewx.wxservices.StdWXCalculate
But then I still get the same errors. Anything else I am missing?
