Hi all,

I'm trying to run both klimalogg pro and Fine Offset WH 1080 on my rbp 2. It has worked before, but four weeks ago my rp2 froze so i had to set it up again including weewx. 

Since then i got this error from my klp installation.

As far as i understand the error, something seems to be wrong in the binding section, it should be "kl_binding" for the klima logg pro and it says so in the klp config file
as you can see here:

Anyone having an idea what i could do?

Hi

I'm also using KlimaloggPro

in my weewx.conf the sections look like below
it also has an [[wx_binding]] and creates an extra sqlite DB weewx.sdb which is empty and never updated,
but somehow it seems it needs to be there.
Maybe it's just redundant but it works 😉
I'm running weewx 4.4.0 for the KLP installation.

Same with the [Databases] section
So I would try to add the below lines to your weewx.conf and see what it gives

Did you do any version update (weewx, Python) when that happened ?

#--------------- weewx.conf excerpt start -----------------

#   This section binds a data store to a database.

[DataBindings]

    [[wx_binding]]
        # The database must match one of the sections in [Databases].
        # This is likely to be the only option you would want to change.
        database = archive_sqlite
        # The name of the table within the database
        table_name = archive
        # The manager handles aggregation of data for historical summaries
        manager = weewx.manager.DaySummaryManager
        # The schema defines the structure of the database.
        # It is *only* used when the database is created.
        schema = schemas.wview_extended.schema
    [[kl_binding]]
        manager = weewx.wxmanager.WXDaySummaryManager
        database = kl_sqlite
        table_name = archive
        schema = user.kl.schema

 [Databases]  
    # A SQLite database is simply a single file
   

[[archive_sqlite]]
        database_name = weewx.sdb
        database_type = SQLite
    [[kl_sqlite]]
        database_name = weewx-kl.sdb


        database_type = SQLite

    # MySQL
    [[archive_mysql]]

        database_name = weewx
        database_type = MySQL
    [[kl_mysql]]
        database_name = weewx-kl
        database_type = MySQL

#--------------- weewx.conf excerpt end -----------------

Hi,

What binding have you specified under [StdArchive]? You should also be looking at the startup log for the weewx-klp instance to see what bindings are being used. I am guessing this is reproducible? I would set debug = 1 in the WeeWX config file used by weewx-klp and restart weewx-klp. The startup log will indicate what bindings are being used. When the error occurs we should be able to work out the context in which the binding is being used, that may give a clue. WeeWX defaults to using wx_binding if no binding is specified for some operations, so that is possibly the source of wx_binding.

WeeWX should work if wx_binding is not specified (provided another binding is specified), if it doesn’t it’s a bug that should be fixed.

your [StdArchive] section in weewx.conf should look like this

[StdArchive]
   
    # If the station hardware supports data logging then the archive interval
    # will be downloaded from the station. Otherwise, specify it (in seconds).
    archive_interval = 60
   
    # If possible, new archive records are downloaded from the station
    # hardware. If the hardware does not support this, then new archive
    # records will be generated in software.
    # Set the following to "software" to force software record generation.
    record_generation = hardware
   
    # Whether to include LOOP data in hi/low statistics
    loop_hilo = True
   
    # The data binding used to save archive records
    data_binding = kl_binding

if there is still "data_binding = wx_binding", then that's the cause of the error

This is my [StdArchive] section of my klp.conf file.

Apart from Gary's suggestions for switching on debug = 1 in weewx.conf and restart ....

the only difference I see in (those parts of weewx.conf shared) is that your record_generation is set to "software" while mine is set to "hardware".
Not sure if this could have an impact, but it's surely worth trying

Changing record_generation should not have any effect, if it does it is masking an underlying problem. I would much prefer trying to identify the underlying cause in case there is a wider issue we need to address.

Hi,

Thanks for the advice, but unfortunality it didn't help. Still get the wx_bindings error again.

Thanks. Just to give the complete picture could you post a sanitised weewx.conf, that might be easier done using the output from wee_debug. If using wee_debug just check the output for sensitive info before posting, wee_debug should obfuscate such info but it’s not perfect.

Georg,

The issue you are encountering is an undocumented requirement to tell the StdWXCalculate service the binding you are using if you are using a binding other than the default wx_binding. Edit weewx.conf and under [StdWXCalculate] insert the line binding = kl_binding, it should look something like this:

[StdWXCalculate]
    data_binding = kl_binding
    [[Calculations]]
        ....

restart WeeWX and it should be fine.

That is interesting - so now come my question here:

how come my KLP installation is running without errors without having this entry ?

Is this because I'm still running it under weewx 4.4.0 or
is it, because I have the wx_binding additionally activated in [Databases] and a related DB (even though empty) ?
Thanks
Rainer

The reason you don’t see the same error is because you have defined a binding named wx_binding. In your case when StdWXCalculate is initialised WeeWX first looks for a binding under [StdWXCalculate] and when it cannot find one WeeWX tries to use the default wx_binding. Which of course WeeWX finds and WeeWX continues without error. In Georg’s case there is no binding named wx_binding and hence the error. Georg could define an unused binding named wx_binding, that would prevent Georg’s error, but when StdWXCalculate tries to obtain historical data to calculate any derived obs that historical data would not be available (since wx_binding refers to an unused database) and the derived obs will be inaccurate or more likely None.

Just to tie this off the following will be implemented as of v4.6.0:
  • the StdWXCalculate data binding will be logged on startup
  • the log will also warn if the data bindings used by StdWXCalculate and StdArchive are different
  • the StdWXCalculate data_binding config option will be documented in the User's Guide
