CWOP issues with RPi 3 (Raspbian Jessie) and Davis Vantage Vue

[Brad Bowers]

So I just finished setting up my RPi3 with Raspbian Jessie and my Davis Vantage Vue. I've got weewx installed and running fine with the Vue (Davis brand logger). It posts to Wunderground fine with the rapid fire. But I'm having issues getting CWOP to work. I have the following settings for CWOP but nothing shows in the log and it won't upload. Any ideas? Also trying to get the other errors with the cheetahgenerator worked out too. It SAYS data for station DW8530 will be posted but it doesn't actually do that.... interesting

SO this is a fresh install of Raspbian Jessie, /boot only running off of SD card, everything else is running from a 32gb usb stick. Running a RTC module for proper time keeping on boot which works fine.

Brad,

I am assuming that you have a regular Davis logger. There is some issue that is preventing weewx from reading archive records off it. The WU Rapidfire posts are unaffected because they use LOOP packets (not archive records).

Try resetting the logger. See the section "Corrupt station memory" in the User's Guide.
