I have enountered this problem in an unexpected way. I have been using weewx for nearly a year running on an old raspberry 2 and a David Vantage Pro with an ethernet adapter. I have tried to move things to a raspberry 4B with a fresh install of weewx and the same weewx.conf settings. If I stop the weewx running on the old raspberry and just to be sure, power it off, and then start weewx on the 4B, the log includes, "Starting main packet loop." then "Successfully woke up Vantage console" but then "send_data: no <ACK> received from Vantage console" and "Main loop exiting. Shutting engine down". If I then start up the old raspberry, weewx operates normally. Why is weewx failing on the 4B?
