Belchertown Report Issues

[Michael McClane]

I was having trouble with Belchertown.  Some of it can be attributed that I didn't read all of the documentation more than once and I think I may have mixed versions.  So I uninstalled Belchertown using sudo weewx_extension --uninstall Belchertown.  I reviewed my weewx.conf and the Belchertown skin and they appeared to be normal.

I proceeded to install Belchertown following the instructions on the README.md for Aeris Weather  replacement.  I downloaded the file and ran sudo  wee_extension  --weewx-belchertown-1.1.tar.gz.  Edited weewx.conf and here's the  current Belchertown section:

 [[Belchertown]]
242         skin = Belchertown
243         HTML_ROOT = /var/www/html/weewx/belchertown
244         # enable = true
245
246         [[[Extras]]]
247     belchertown_root = http://localhost/weewx/belchertown
248     #logo_image =
249     site_title = "Amelia Island"
250     foot_copyright_text = "BelchertownWeather.com"
251     forecast_enabled = 1
252     forecast_provider = "aeris"
253     forecast_api_id = 123456789
254     forecast_api_secret = 987654321
255     forecast_lang = en
256     forecast_units = us
257     forecast_stale = 3540
258     forecast_alert_enabled = 0
259     #twitter_enabled = 1
260
I've attached the debug results of my weewx.conf file. I'm not a python expert.  The first errors are http related in request.py Lines 569 and 649

Then it gets weird.  It's a darksky forecast error in belchertown.py  Line 597. Finally permission denied /belchertown/favicon.ico and /json/homepage.json.

  My HTML_ROOT at /var/www/html/Belchertown has the Belchertown report from Sep 7 which I believe was ran under this installation as I total wiped out HTML_ROOT before the new install per Pat's suggestion.

I'm having fun, learning new things, but at a loss here.  Any insight is appreciated.

Aeris does not work in version 1.1. 

Good news; version 1.2 has been released which Aeris works in. I suggest you upgrade.

I’m running Debian 10 on a MacBook Pro. I uninstalled Belchertown and did a deep cleaning of /var/www/html.  Also double checked weewx.conf for any remnants.  

I installed Belchertown using wget https://github.com/poblabs/weewx-belchertown/releases/download/weewx-belchertown-1.1/weewx-belchertown-release-1.1.tar.gz and sudo wee_extension --install weewx-belchertown-release-1.1.tar.gz.  wee_reports ran without error. I could access in my browser at http://localhost/weewx/belechertown.  It worked through couple iterations, then quit. The HTML_ROOT =/var/www/weewx/belchertown showed the last run before it died.

I’ve removed Belchertown again and the generic weewx seems to work fine. It seems that I have an issue with pitting the results of the report generation in the right place.

Could that have been the issue?

Tough to say without debug logs

[Mike McClane]

They were attached to my first message - No worries on with 1.2

Ah, I missed that! Is 1.2 working for you?

[Mike McClane]

Getting ready to install now.  I assume that since I uninstalled and cleared up the previous Belchertown tracks that It is a new install.

Looking at the debug logs, something was up with your forecast settings. Could be the Aeris setting on 1.1 which doesn't support it.
