Problem with Vantage Vue

[geo...@gmail.com]

I want to use my Vantage Vue with weewx per tcp/ip. After installing weewx I get the following error messages:

*******************************************************************************

Do I have to install a vantage-driver afterwards?

Connection refused is the other computer isn't listening and accepting traffic on that port.

Check you have the right ip address set in your weewx.conf file

IP is correct. After stop, start or restart showed no change, I restarted the Raspberry. Now this is in the log and apparently stops at Finished Clean php session files:

I used the weewx version 4.6.2 on a Raspberry 2.

All of those log entries were put there by other services. There is nothing in the log that indicates that weewxd is even running.

Sorry, that's right. I reinstalled both the Raspi OS and weewx. Simulator works, when selecting Vantage, unfortunately the error message remains as in the first post, Connection refused. BTW, the other computer is Meteobridge. I'll ask around on the Meteobridge forum.

[geo...@gmail.com]

Small update: Retrieving weather data via ethernet and port 22222 should only work if the Vantage weather station is connected to Meteobridge via USB data logger. My Vantage Vue is connected via Meteostick.

I have now successfully connected my Vantage Vue to weewx using Meteostick and fileparse. The csv import also works perfectly. Unfortunately I forgot the assignment for barometers in the field-maps in the csv.conf, so they are missing now. Can I start the import again just with the missing value? For example, this is the year 2021 with almost 100.000 data records. I use weewx 4.6.2 on the Raspberry, Database is MySQL.
