Hi all,

I configured RPI with Buster and installed Weewx with install script.
the location is /home/weewx/  
http://weewx.com/docs/setup.htm ( WeeWX: Installation using setup.py )
I made different installs (MySQL and default sbd DB)  
 
Configuration Weewx is made in simulator mode because i want to use a NOOELEC – Nano2+  NESDR RTL SDR device

https://www.nooelec.com/store/downloads/dl/file/id/72/product/0/nesdr_installation_manual_for_ubuntu.pdf

i blacklisted the default drivers conform the manual, 1 made another file (blacklist.conf) to.

with the command lsusb i see thee device with ID: obda:2838 conform Udev setup ( source:  git  lheijst/rtldavis)

install driver:

after installing the driver: (some parts ar already done while installing the driver, step before)

test results:

is this ok so far?

next test:
cd /home/weewx sudo 
./bin/weewxd weewx.conf  

after some time the system will crash. (10 a 15 minutes)

I can't speak to your RTL/SDR problems, but the "No module named configobj" error is because you are trying to run under python 2. Try this:

sudo PYTHONPATH=bin python3 bin/user/rtldavis.py --help

Hi Tom,

Tnx for quick respond, this is the result,  


Source:  https://github.com/lheijst/weewx-rtldavis

 

How to diagnose problems

First try running the rtldavis application to be sure that it works properly:

$GOPATH/bin/rtldavis  

 

This works!

Be sure that you are capturing data from the sensors you care about.  To do
this, you might want to experiment with some of the options to rtldavis.  
 
Once that is working, run the driver directly to be sure that it is collecting
data from the rtldavis application.
 
cd /home/weewx
sudo PYTHONPATH=bin python bin/user/rtldavis.py

 

advise Tom K. creates the next error. 


pi@wsb-meteo:/home/weewx $ sudo PYTHONPATH=bin python3 bin/user/rtldavis.py


Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "bin/user/rtldavis.py", line 1387, in <module>
    syslog.openlog('rtldavis', syslog.LOG_PID | syslog.LOG_CONS)
NameError: name 'syslog' is not defined
pi@wsb-meteo:/home/weewx $

I created a rtldavis.log and a rtldavis file in /var/log….. still the same result.  ( --help gives same result)


when i start  pi@wsb-meteo:/home/weewx $ sudo ./bin/weewxd weewx.conf  , the already started program $GOPATH/bin/rtldavis –ex 200 will quit. (looks logical because  sudo ./bin/weewxd weewx.conf  starts the same program)

 

that’s why I tried the following troubleshooting:

In the weewx configuration file, enter the Rtldavis options (if necessary).
Then run weewx directly in one shell while you monitor the weewx log in a 
separate shell:
 
in shell 1:
cd /home/weewx
sudo ./bin/weewxd weewx.conf
 
in shell 2:
tail -f /var/log/syslog

 

After aprox. 5 minutes with sudo ./bin/weewxd weewx.conf  the program quit.

Are you sure that rtldavis.py has been updated to python3 ?

The repo you mentioned hasn't been touched in almost 18 months...

I started with python (see 1st post) which give me a error, Tom made a suggestion to try python3....

I think you are right it should work with python like the repo of Lheijst.
