This is the place for support questions about installing and using
weewx
, the open-source weather software system.
Before you post, please see if you can find the answer to your question in the
documentation
, or in the
wiki
.
When you post a question, please remember to:
Post the relevant portion of the system log
The log is essential to diagnosing any problem.
It helps to turn on the "debug" flag (set
debug=1
in the configuration file
weewx.conf
), then run again.
Post the relevant portion of the weewx configuration file and/or skin configuration file;
Specify the type of weather station hardware you are using;
Tell us how you installed weewx.
For more information about what makes a good post, see the guidelines
Help! Posting to weewx user!
in the wiki.
There is a separate group,
weewx-development
, for developers who are actively working on extensions and the weewx codebase.
Please do not cross-post to both weewx-user and weewx-development!
Mark all as read
