"ERROR weewx.drivers.acurite"

[Ξ]

Hello,

I've just installed WeeWX 5.1 using the apt method as described for Debian on a Linux Mint laptop.

It appears weewx is unable to get the data from the console, I've tried swapping the cables and changing the USB setting to 3 and 4, restarting weewx, the OS, and the console.

Model: Acurite 01036

Here is what I get in the message log:

Aug 11 00:36:57 weewxd[2883]: ERROR weewx.drivers.acurite: Failed attempt 7 of 10 to get LOOP data: Unable to find station on USB

Pretty sure bus= and device= should be populated but for some reason they're not.

Would anyone be able to help me?

Thanks,

Ivo

Quick update, after another round of restarts now only the 'DEBUG' message appears and the 'ERROR' is gone:

I have an Acurite and use the USB. I recall having some problem like this the first time I ran it. I think I unplugged the USB and rebooted the PI running Weewx and plugged it back in. Maybe I just rebooted. It was months ago. I might even have switched the USB port for another one. I never found out what caused it since it went away quickly.
