Good evening!
I slowed down and took the following actions:
1. I checked time of RPi:
*pi@raspberrypi:~ $ dateTue Mar 10 09:54:45 PM +03 2026*
2. I stopped weewx
*pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo systemctl stop weewx*
3. I've set debug=2
*# Set to 1 for extra debug info, otherwise comment it out or set to
zero.debug = 2*
4.When I try to view the system log, I get the following error:
*pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog | tee /tmp/mylogtail:
cannot open '/var/log/syslog' for reading: No such file or directorytail:
no files remaining*
Or
*pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo journalctl -u weewx -f | tee /tmp/mylogMar 10

Do I have to create the directory manually?
Using the command
sudo mkdir /var/log/syslog?
