SDR no longer supported? :( What's gong on?!

I made the mistake of upgrading weewx to the latest version. Now it won't run.

You must be coming from a very old version…

From the release notes…

4.10.1 01/30/2023¶

Logging handler rotate has been removed. Its need to access privileged location /var/log/weewx.log on start up would cause crashes, even if it was never used.

V5 logging docs are at https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/logging

[Kevin Key]

Thanks. I'm going to see where - unknowingly - I may be calling that in my config...... 

[Kevin Key]

Well I'll be damned. Removing the references to 'rotate" fixed the problem. :)

It always pays to read the Upgrade Guide. That's what it's there for.
