Goodmorning,
I have an old current cost envir and I want to use measureit to send data to PVoutput.
I just bought a raspberrypi zero w and would like to use it.
Please consider that I have no experience with raspberry and linux.
The raspberry pi zero w came with a 16GB sd card with an OS already installed.
When I started it I got a prompt to look for updates and answered yes.

After the update the OS installed is the following
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)"
NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="10"
VERSION="10 (buster)"
VERSION_CODENAME=buster

I tried to do the measureit manual installation using the "dirty script" from this page

I probably did something wrong or the procedure is not working with my OS version.
As far as I understand I should be able to see the envir data using a browser and typing the IP address of my raspberry (which I believe is correct as I got it from my router). However I got an error message "ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED"

I kindly ask for suggestions: should I try to flash the card with the pre-installed measureit version 121?
I read that it should work on pi 3,2,1 and zero but don't know if it works with my pi zero w.
Anyway I tried to access this page but it's not working

Any other suggestion?
Thanks
Riccardo

I was able to install the 121 release from this page

Everything works fine on my raspberrypi zero w.
Please do not consider the previous help request.

Thanks
Riccardo
