About a month ago I upgraded Weewx to 4.9.1. I've since noticed the webpage is showing some errors and I'm not sure where to look to resolve them.

The first issue I noticed was the dates are incorrect on two plots, UV and Meter Box.

The second issue I've noticed is contained in the 'Current Conditions column.

The data 'extraHumid1 is now displaying data. Previously data displayed the temperature for the 'Hot Water'

I'm not sure how to fix this, so any suggestions welcome.

Current webpage and log attached.

Thanks,

Rob

The Seasons skin has an automatic provisioning feature where it will display and plot data which is non-null in your database.

For whatever reason, both extraHumid1 and UV are not null. For example, look at this packet in your log:

Dec 16 19:59:50 solar weewx[522] DEBUG user.interceptor: mapped packet: {'dateTime': 1671181189, 'usUnits': 1, 'pressure': 29.92, 'outHumidity': 61.0, 'inHumidity': 51.0, 'outTemp': 62.96, 'inTemp': 71.42, 'windSpeed': 2.91, 'windGust': 6.93, 'windDir': 188.0, 'radiation': 2.45, 'rain': 0.0, 'rainRate': 0.0, 'UV': 0.0, 'extraTemp1': 62.96, 'extraHumid1': 61.0, 'soilMoist1': 48.0, 'soilMoist2': 57.0, 'soilMoist3': 41.0}

Perhaps you have sensors you didn't know you had, or perhaps you are picking up a neighbor's sensors, or perhaps your sensor mappings are incorrect. You'll have to sort that out.

If you don't believe these numbers and want to suppress them, you have two options:

Option 1. Remove them from your sensor mappings. This will cause them to become null values in your database. Seasons looks back 30 days to decide whether a sensor has non-null values. So, after a month, it will self-correct. If you don't want to wait a month, you can modify the database and set the values to null yourself.

Option 2. Suppress the values from being displayed and plotted. They'll still be in the database, but they won't get displayed. Go into the Seasons configuration file Seasons/skin.conf and remove 'extraHumid1' and 'UV' from options 'observations_stats' and 'plot_groups'.

Thanks, I obviously haven't explained myself very well.

I don't understand why the plot date/time for 'UV Index' is still at 18th March 2022.

I downloaded the latest png created by Weewx (attached) for 'UV Index' and it clearly shows todays date/time.

The other plots, bar one other, show the correct date/time.

Can you advise?

Thanks

Rob

Looks like 18 December 2022 to me, I gather you are in the +11 UTC timezone so that would seem on the face of it to be correct. Is your site accessible via the internet? If so it might help to have a link.
