WU and PWS sites are working and are being updated, However WeeWx pages are not.

WeeWx pages are stuck at 7:40pm yesterday and the Belchertown reports/skin version is stuck on 5:50pm.

I was in the process of adding the Belchertown skin and making changes to the Weewx.conf file when this happened. I assume that Stopping and Starting the Weewx service may have done something, but that is a guess.

I am not sure what to do about it as I am not a Linux person and don't know my way around it. I would appreciate some guidance and assistance.

Hi,

Impossible to say. Refer to the wiki article Help! Posting to weewx user for how/what to post.

If you look at the bottom of 'mylog' you will see that your Aeris forecast setup is broken and they're responding with 'unauthorized', and the reportengine thread looks like it's terminating as a result. Try disabling the forecast part of Belchertown for starters and see if that helps any.

This is just weird. All I have done is disabled the failing Aeris connection and ran the log capture a couple of times and then left it for a while and now the Belchertown Skin is working, but not the Standard Weewx skin. I will keep trying a few changes in the WeeWx.conf file and restart EVERYTHING and see what happens. I have to admit that I am very confused.

OK. Looks like WeeWX is having a problem with obtaining data from your station but empty archive records are being produced. This is enough to fire off WU and PWS updates but the lack of new data is leaving your generated pages with an old timestamp. I have no experience with Acurite stations but I believe they are subject to USB lockups etc. There seems to be no particular solution short of trying restarting WeeWX, software resetting the USB port (if possible), disconnecting/reconnecting the station or power cycling the station. You may find further advice by searching the user group.

Of course you have a Belchertown problem but that is not the cause of any problem other than the Belchertown skin not generating.

Okay. I have found out what was tripping me up.

In my Weewx.conf file I had skin = Standard

enable = true (was false changed it back to false)

HTML_ROOT = /var/www/html/weewx/standard

[[Inigo]]

skin = Inigo

HTML_ROOT = /var/www/html/weewx/Inigo (Removed the /inigo from the path)

Thanks guys for your direction.
