I am running weewx 3.9.2 on a Raspberry Pi. I have a Peet Bro’s. Ultimeter 2000. It has stopped sending, or weewx has stopped reporting my rain data. It did show a while back, but then stopped reporting to Wunderground. It is also not showing on local index.html page.it shows all other data, temp, wind, barometric pressure, and humidity.

The head unit shows rain totals for the day, for instance today .6 inch

I have the Ultimeter set to send the data in “data logging” mode.

Has anyone encountered this? Any suggestions for solutions or further troubleshooting?

Hi,

Best place to start is the log. Edit weewx.conf, set debug = 1, save weewx.conf then restart WeeWX. Let WeeWX run for at least three archive intervals then take a log extract from when WeeWX was restarted through until the three archive intervals have elapsed. Make sure you include the full WeeWX start up sequence. Post the log extract back here.

Gary,

I enabled debug. over multiple days I continued to see this error, but no others.  The log resets at midnight.  I have attached the log from this morning and yesterday, as well.
