Weewx with WeatherlinkLiveUDP crashing

[joh....@googlemail.com]

Hi,

I am using WLL from https://github.com/grebleem/weewx-weatherlinkliveudp

Basically it is working but I have from time to time crashes of Weewx with the following errors:

Sep 25 12:34:15 Weewx weewx[2970] CRITICAL __main__:     ****    File "/usr/share/weewx/weewxd", line 154, in main

Sep 25 12:34:15 Weewx weewx[2970] CRITICAL __main__:     ****  Exiting.

When I restart (or sometimes two restarts are needed) then it is working again some days.

Any IDeas?

Br,

It looks like the extension author forgot to check 'rain_rate_last' for None values. Try filing an issues report with him/her.

I've written a driver for the same, and what I found while doing so, is that sometimes the weather link live device just doesn't want to participate, or there's some other network error. it seems that grebleem hasn't handled that any better than I did (thought I'm working on fixing that now)
