Hi,

after nearly a year collecting weather data with rtl_433  suddenly the html pages are incorrectly updated, all the graphs and the title screen is stuck on November 12th 2019.

In the syslog i can see that via rtl_433 data is still collected and stored.
The sqlite database seems to be filled with appropriate data as well, the timestamp is also from today (Nov. 14th)

sqlite> quit


But nevertheless   I searched also for some wrong timestamps, but there weren't any...

[  sqlite3 /home/weewx/archive/weewx.sdb
sqlite> delete from archive where dateTime > X;
sqlite> .exit]


I am a bit confused.... even deleting all pngs etc.etc. they are re-generated - but still with the wrong date and data (November 12th....)

Does anyone has a hint, what I can check next?

Thanks a lot!

Cheers,

Check your webserver. Maybe restart it. Are the files in your www directory the old ones or current ones?

Again, as always, we need you to start with setting debug=1 in weewx.conf, start weewx back up (or restart it), and provide the full syslog from the line where weewx begins to start up all the way to after the first or second archive_period happens.

Hi,

I made a backup of the old files in the www directory as well. But now, these are the current ones  with the data and the date November 12th - but the filesystem timestamp last modified 'today'.
So maybe the generation of the gifs and the status page is broken only...
Is therey some known issue with Debian Buster?

Okay, thanks, I'll do thay tonight. My guess is, simply the webpage generation is somewhat broken, but why... the only things which happened on November 12 was that the battery from my bresser-5-in-1 died and had been replaces a day later - but the reception is fine again and the data is also written to the database after replacing.

Hi Again,

I just grepped for "archive_period"  through the log files of the last days and did not find one entry, despite the fact that I already hat set 

"# Set to 1 for extra debug info, otherwise comment it out or set to zero
debug = 1"

quiet a time ago..... 

Erm?

Thanks for your help!

Cheers,

U G

Hi,

What Vince was referring to was the archive_period setting in weewx.conf, you probably won't find it in the syslog as it tends to be spelt out in the log rather than using the actual setting name. I suggest you refer to this entry in the wiki about posting to the WeeWX user group, it will help you obtain the info we need to help. Without this we are just guessing which will leave all of us frustrated and your system still not working.

Also, WeeWX is event driven, so whilst you might find the web pages or plots are not updated it may well be something else broken early in the chain that is causing the web pages or plots not to be generated. We really need to see a log extract from WeeWX startup to determine what the issue is.

Hi,

so, I did reconfigured my syslog to pipe everything from weewx in a seperate file and startet id again.
Here are the first couple of hundred entries so far....:

https://hangoophoodieghahcheuzashohmieyedeizaihooya.mooo.com/angoophoodieghahcheuzashohmieyedeizaihooya/first2000linesweex.txt

The Url seems funny, but I like to delete the subdomain after a couple of months:-)

Your issue is SDR/SDR driver related; the driver is not presenting loop data to WeeWX so hence WeeWX adds nothing to database and no reports are generated. I appreciate your setup has been working for sometime but you might want to go back and work carefully through the SDR setup and configuration from scratch. Failing that you need some help from someone well versed on the SDR/SDR driver setup. Unfortunately that's not me.

Hi,

thanks for mentioning that, I  had only checked that something is added to the database and not WHAT was added to the database...

Somehow my Bresser5in1 changed its ID from 207 to 237, so it was simply ignored by weewx....

why it did that, I don't know.... maybe its because it was freezing cold the last couple of nights, the battery is week and it reseted itself or something...

Just changed the ID to 237 in the config and now its working fine again....

Thanks for the hint! Sometimes you don't see something like that for yourself:-)

Cheers,
