Error when starting weexw with station_type Simulator

[Karl Napp]

Hi,
I'm new using weex.
I cannot start weewx with  station_type = Simulator in wweex.conf.
Following error appears:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/weewx/weewxd", line 249, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/share/weewx/weewxd", line 148, in main
    engine = weewx.engine.StdEngine(config_dict)
  File "/usr/share/weewx/weewx/engine.py", line 81, in __init__
    self.setupStation(config_dict)
  File "/usr/share/weewx/weewx/engine.py", line 103, in setupStation
    driver = config_dict[station_type]['driver']
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 554, in __getitem__
    val = dict.__getitem__(self, key)
KeyError: 'Simulator'

Any ideas ?  thanks in advance

You are missing a section [Simulator] in your configuration file.

A station type (in this case, "Simulator"), must have a matching stanza (in this case, "[Simulator]").

Don't just set station_type to "Simulator". Instead, use wee_config --reconfigure.
