For some time, I can no longer import data via Weather Underground.

Can someone remind me of the procedure?

my configuration file wu.conf has been configured successfully

I do this:

sudo wee_import --import-config=/var/tmp/wu.conf --from=2023-01-01T22:30 --to=2023-04-23T06:00
sudo wee_database --update
sudo wee_database --drop-daily
sudo /etc/init.d/weewx stop
sudo wee_database --rebuild-daily
sudo /etc/init.d/weewx start

I deleted my NOAA and my home/weewx/public_html folder but I can't find my history. It is as if the import procedure did not work.

thanks

The WU import process is covered in the Utilities Guide where it has been since wee_import was released. You are doing a few extra steps (wee_database --update and dropping/rebuilding the daily summaries) that are not required; they won't cause any problems but serve use during an import. We also don't recommend running WeeWX and wee_import concurrently, better to stop WeeWX, perform the import and then restart WeeWX.

What does wee_import display on screen during the import? Did it believe it imported any records? Did you check your log after running wee_import? The log will show you what records (if any) were imported and what records were not.

I'm not sure what you mean by "I can't find my history", do you mean no NOAA files and html files were produced by WeeWX? If so where did you look? What does your WeeWX log show?
