Found the error in weewx.conf. In [Engine ]it had added "data_services = data_services = user.gw1000.GatewayService" where it should clearly have been just "data_services = user.gw1000.GatewayService" (I deliberately say it, because I didn't do it :-) )
So now it works! thank you all for helping me out. I have some other issues, but I'll open another thread with that :-) Cheeres Bent fredag den 3. oktober 2025 kl. 09.12.49 UTC+2 skrev [email protected]: > I have the driver up and running, That is good.
