I am setting up a WeeWx for a remote site, it will be running a Weatherfllow Tempest
just like my home system.

This ia a RPi Zero 2W  I have installed WeeWx 5.1.0 on this device. I followed the
instructions under the Debian install got the stinking Locale thing straight. 

Now I am met with the message:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'user.weatherflowudp'

Here is the log of the messages in the dump:

Dec 07 17:34:15 kp4djt-weewx02 systemd[1]: weewx.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

In the past I recall just installing the text files and setting the system up, and after a
bit it was scraping UDP frames off of the network and populating the screen but, so far this has been a failure. I found a file which I downloaded and tried to install but it does not have the driver that is being called for. 

I have never had issues getting WeeWx going until now. Even when I moved to the Tempest it was pretty straight forward.

Did you install the driver? If so, how did you do it?

https://github.com/captain-coredump/weatherflow-udp has installation instructions. Make sure to edit in ‘your’ tempest sensor id.

Sorry late on this, but I got it taken care of, it was a fat finger... (I am good at that)... The station is now
on line and reporting just fine. I do not see it on the weewx map. My original station is on there but 
the 2nd one kp4djt-1 is not, I have the stanza set true, but do not see it on the weewx map, 
Beyond that it is working quite well. 

This station is at an unattended location, it is linked back to the network over microwave.

Give me the value for station_url, and I'll look into it.

OK, out of town I will get it as soon as I get back sometime late next week.

I found a station by searching for "kp4djt" in the station_url. It's been registering regularly every day at 16:53. It's also showing up on the map. 

I am not seeing a station with "kp4djt-1" in the URL.

Check the log and make sure it's really registering. If you can't figure it out, set debug=1, restart, post the log from startup through the first report generation.

OK, I will do so. Going to see if I can reach it from Albuquerque, see if I can ssh into it.

Got into it, forgot to remove the octothorp in front of the url:
station_url = http://kp4djt-weewx02.local.mesh/weewx/
