I am using Weewx for 2 weeks, I need to correct the amount of rain fall, either daily, monthly and annually. You can tell me the procedure for making these fixes. thank you.

See if this answers your question: Cleaning up old "bad" information.

If not, come on back and give us a little more information.

Hello Thomas, I would like to reset the content of the rest of the day on 21-04-2017, how can I make the SQL statement?

We need more information than that.

What time zone? UTC+02:00?

How did you install? Using setup.py, or Debian? Or, something else?

Do you want to zero out all rain data for the day? Or, is there just one bad value? If just one value, roughly how big is the value?

Try this and tell me what you get

cd /var/lib/weewx
echo "SELECT dateTime, rain FROM archive WHERE dateTime > 1492725600 and dateTime <= 1492812000 AND rain > 0;" | sqlite3 weewx.sdb

(NB: 1492725600 is midnight 21-04-2017, and 1492812000 is midnight 22-04-2017 in the time zone UTC+02:00.)

Hi thomas, 1) The time zone for this season is UTC + 02:00 2) First installed the dependency packages autonomously, then installed weewx from the .DEB repository. I installed both, Sqlite3 and MySQL. 3) I would like to know how to reset the value of rain all day long, and how to change a single value. 4) Also the 'datetime' I see is UNIX time? Do you know of an online portal to calculate it?

Google for epoch converter - unix time is epoch time

The daily total is in the sum column of archive_day_rain table

Individual value per archive interval are in rain column of archive table

Values can be amended using phpmyadmin or phpliteadmin or using the appropriate sql statements through sql or SQLite as appropriate

3. Follow the procedure given in the Wiki Cleaning up old 'bad' data. Be sure to work off a copy of your data!

To zero out all rain values for the day 21-04-2017 in your time zone, the SQL statement for SQLITE would be:

cd /var/lib/weewx
echo "UPDATE archive set rain = 0 WHERE dateTime > 1492725600 and dateTime <= 1492812000;" | sqlite3 /var/tmp/backup.sdb

If you wish to change only large values (how large?), say over .1, then use

echo "UPDATE archive set rain = 0 WHERE dateTime > 1492725600 and dateTime <= 1492812000 AND rain > 0.1;" | sqlite3 /var/tmp/backup.sdb

If you are using MySQL, the procedure is similar. If you can't figure it out, then you should stick with SQLITE, which is easier to administer.

Hi Massimiliano,
I noticed you are using Meteotemplate. Weewx and Meteotemplate both use their own databases. So when you correct the data in the weewx database it won't have effect on the Meteotemplate database. You will have to correct the data also for Meteotemplate.
