E: Unable to locate package weewx </pre>

Hi,

Try to instal and I'm getting E: Unable to locate package weewx

Please advise

Could probably list a bunch of reasons but would be speculation without some insight on what you have tried.

Configure apt

Tell apt where to find the WeeWX releases. This only has to be done once - the first time you install WeeWX.

Tell your system to trust weewx.com:

wget -qO - https://weewx.com/keys.html | sudo apt-key add -

For Debian10 and later, use python3:

wget -qO - https://weewx.com/apt/weewx-python3.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/weewx.list

For Debian9 and earlier, use python2:

wget -qO - https://weewx.com/apt/weewx-python2.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/weewx.list

Install

Use apt-get to install WeeWX. The installer will prompt for a location, latitude/longitude, altitude, station type, and parameters specific to your station hardware.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install weewx

You didn't follow the instructions.

1. add the key to trust the weewx package

2. add the repository to be able to install from the weewx repository

3. update your system's knowledge of what is in the weewx repository

4. install the package

You didn't do step 3.

You need to do the apt-get update before doing the apt-get install.
