Good day
I have been running raspberry pi with USB link to a vantage pro 2 console happily for years. The console went dead and I replaced it with a Vantage Vue
I got data from the vantage vue once but now no matter what I do, at the five minute interval, nothing happens.
I am using the python installer version. I set debug = 1 in weewx.conf but that hasn't really added more info. Here is the log:
pi@raspberrypi:/home/weewx $ sudo systemctl stop weewx
pi@raspberrypi:/home/weewx $ sudo systemctl start weewx
pi@raspberrypi:/home/weewx $ tail -f /var/log/syslog

After this, nothing happens. No errors, weewx continues to run, but silence.
I would really appreciate an ideas.
Kind regards
Robin
