Weewxwd installation when weewx installed from deb

[Jacek Skowroński]

Hi,

I have some confusion.

I'd like to install weewxwd. Previously I had installed weewx from deb.

Where should I find setup.py file in general? This is the first step in installation of the weewxwd

sudo find / -name 'setup.py'

gives nothing

Thanks for help

Hi,

The Weewx-WD install instructions have not yet been updated to reflect the removal of the weewx extension management capabilities from setup.py and the creation of the wee_extension utilitiy at weewx v3.2.0. You can safely install Weewx-WD with wee_extension using something like:

./wee_extension --install=/path/to/weewxwd-1.0.0.tar.gz

Weewx-WD v1.0.0 has a few bugs in it that may or may not affect you. I am just putting the finishing touches to a v1.0.1 package that adresses these issues. If you could hang off installing for a week that might be advantageous.

thanks for info about the way of installation and about troubles

I will wait

[Jacek Skowroński]

by the way, the solution you gave me producess errors

pi@raspberrypi:/ $ sudo wee_extension --install= /home/pi/weewxwd-1.0.0.tar.gz

Traceback (most recent call last):

[gjr80]

That error indicates that wee_extension found an error in your weewx.conf and could not parse it. I trust that your weewx.conf is located in /etc/weewx (you said you did a deb install) and that it in fact is not malformed? If everything is fine you might want to tell wee_extension exactly where weewx.conf is rather than have it guessing. You could try:

wee_extension --config=/etc/weewx/weewx.conf --install=/home/pi/weewxwd-1.0.0.tar.gz

[Jacek Skowroński]

Yes file is in the standard location. Weewx is working without any warn on start so It's crazy to have problems with config.
Could i send You a file to chceck? Maybe there is something with program wee_extension

Did you try explicitly setting the --config option as per my last? I also note you ran wee_extension from the / directory. You might want to try changing into the /usr/share/weewx folder and then running it again, it could be a path issue.

Now I have few questions.

If FTP service is on and all files from pi are sent to www serwer, does it mean that all files located in weewx/WD folder should go to the ftp server? Or do I have to prepare other service called FTPWD to send WD files?

Any hint how to fix the mentioned errors?

I did warn you.....

Weewx-WD v1.0.0 has a few bugs in it that may or may not affect you. I am just putting the finishing touches to a v1.0.1 package that adresses these issues. If you could hang off installing for a week that might be advantageous.

The wind rose font issue is easily worked around. As per the Weewx-WD docs installing the GNU FreeFont truetype fonts will fix the problem:
 

sudo apt-get install fonts-freefont-ttf

The next version gracefully handles the lack of the GNU FreeFont truetype fonts.

The other issue is more complex but I suspect it can be avoided by installing pyephem (I say avoided becasue the issue is still there, it is just that Weewx-WD 1.0.0 handles sunrise and sunset times a little differently if pyephem is installed):

sudo apt-get install python-dev
sudo apt-get install python-pip
sudo pip install pyephem

Even with these workarounds I am not certain you will have no more issues. As I said this morning, I recommend you give me a few days to get the next version finalised.

thx

[Jacek Skowroński]

Thanks for warn I do not blame You, I like the risk sometimes.

I did what You pointed.

Still there is some problem. But I do not care at this moment - data are on my webpage - weewx and saratoga also they are sent to the WU

Here is an error log - maybe it would help You in development of very nice plugin.
