Issue with weewx-meteotemplate after upgradeing weewx v4

[J Stargazer]

Hi all.

I'm having a bit of an issue with installing the weewx-meteotemplate extension.

I had few other issues as well, but have resolved most of those by uninstalling the extensions and reinstalling them.

The error I am getting is;

May  8 14:21:01 jupiter weewx[2718] CRITICAL __main__: Caught unrecoverable exception:

I followed the error to - File "/usr/share/weewx/user/meteotemplate.py", line 106

Line 106 shows (highlighted yellow);

       super(Meteotemplate, self).__init__(engine, cfg_dict)       
        loginf("service version is %s" % VERSION)
        try:
            site_dict = cfg_dict['StdRESTful']['Meteotemplate']
            site_dict = accumulateLeaves(site_dict, max_level=1)
            site_dict['password']
        except KeyError, e:
            logerr("Data will not be uploaded: Missing option %s" % e)
            return

Unfortunately I have no idea what this is telling me.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks,

Jono

Thanks JD.

Unfortunately when I upgraded my system python was up dated to version 3.

And I'm no programmer convert the code is probably not going to work for me.

Hi,

Three choices run under Python 2.7 or find a python 3 version of the code or convert the code from python2 to python3.

I have had success converting other scripts using a program called 2to3 

sudo apt install 2to3

If you run sudo 2to3 -w meteotemplate.py it might just work and it will also create a .bak file

I have the same issues.  Thanks to Google I was able to correct the "except KeyError, e:" error but then other error messages appeared.  I sent Matthew, the owner of the extension, an email earlier but have not heard back from him.

Matthew and I are working on converting all of the uploaders. I'm working on meteotemplate, and expect to have something later today.

Try this version: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tkeffer/weewx-meteotemplate/master/bin/user/meteotemplate.py

Thanks Tom.  Seems to be working fine under Python3 and version 4.
