No upload

[Jens-Jørgen Kjærgaard]

In two days now, the station is not uploading files. They are correctly generated, but I get a timeout on ftpupload:

Manually , I can upload all - and ftp works fine?

[Tom Keffer]

I thought you switched to rsync? If at all possible, you should see the transition through --- rsync is far superior to FTP.

Regarding FTP, I am assuming that you did not change anything, such as switching to FTPS?

What version of WeeWX? 

Run again, this time using debug=1 and post the log. The debug setting will give us information about how the server is responding.

It's possible your host switched FTP software, or changed a setting. Some servers are known to have bugs. It would help if we knew which server they are using.

I am already using debug=1.

Weewx 3.8.0

No change in FTP, nothing changed at all, just stopped working.

I post here the moment it happened:

That version of WeeWX is over 5 years old. There have been some substantive changes to the FTP uploader, mostly about FTPS. Again, are you using FTPS? It would be simplest if you just show the [[FTP]] section of weewx.conf, taking care to obfuscate any passwords.

If it suddenly stopped working, then it's possible your host changed the server. Again, it would help if we knew what kind of server they are using. Or, possibly, there is a firewall issue.

You say that you can connect manually?

If all else fails, email me your username and credentials and I'll try on my end.

[Jens-Jørgen Kjærgaard]

I've tried to get information on the server or whether they changed anything, but it does not seem so. The site is hosted by simply.com (unoeuro.com).

Should I update to a newer version of weewx?

I think I have tried rsync sometime long ago, and tried the option now again, but get: Permission denied (publickey) when I try to generate the keys.

The section of weewx.conf you asked for:

 [[FTP]]
        # FTP'ing the results to a webserver is treated as just another report,
        # albeit one with an unusual report generator!
        skin = Ftp
       
        # If you wish to use FTP, uncomment and fill out the next four lines.
        #user = replace with the ftp username
        #password = replace with the ftp password; put in quotes to guard against parsing errors.
        #server = replace with the ftp server name, e.g, www.threefools.org
        #path = replace with the ftp destination directory (e.g., /weather)
       
        # Set to True for an FTP over TLS (FTPS) connection. Not all servers
        # support this.
        secure_ftp = False
       
        # To upload files from something other than what HTML_ROOT is set
        # to above, specify a different HTML_ROOT here.
        #HTML_ROOT = public_html
       
        # Most FTP servers use port 21
        port = 21
       
        # Set to 1 to use passive mode, zero for active mode
        passive = 1
       
        # If you wish to use FTP, uncomment and fill out the next four lines:
        user = jensjk.dk
        password = x
        server = linux83.unoeuro.com
        path = /public_html/hytte

The path=/public_html/hytte/backgrounds is almost certainly wrong.   That would be a privileged (unusual) location on any kind of system.

You want the absolute pathname on the filesystem of the remote computer, which likely starts with "/home/<account>" or "/var/www/<account>" or something similar.

If you can log into the remote computer and get a shell, type "pwd" and see what it reports.

If 'you' did not change anything, then the only explanation is 'they' changed something.   It happens.

See if https://www.simply.com/en/support/faq/php/589/ helps any...

Try path=/var/www/jensjk.dk/public_html/hytte and see if that works.

I doubt a newer version of WeeWX will make a difference. That part hasn't changed.

The article that Vince linked to is where to find the results in the WWW, not where to have FTP upload to.

Keep trying different paths. For example, path = public_html/hytte (no leading slash).

Also, you may have the right path, but the wrong permissions on the server. Log into the web server (if you can) and make sure that the permissions have been set correctly.

The article that Vince linked to is where to find the results in the WWW, not where to have FTP upload to.

Sigh - yes.  Agree.  Sorry for the confusion.

The webserver could be mapping a user's public_html to the path in the link I provided.

 

Keep trying different paths. For example, path = public_html/hytte (no leading slash).

Agree.  I'd try that next.

The leading slash in the previous posts is very likely wrong.

Also, you may have the right path, but the wrong permissions on the server. Log into the web server (if you can) and make sure that the permissions have been set correctly.

Agree.  Manually ftp 'any' file from the shell and see if it works.

To figure it all out, a manual ftp from the shell would likely answer the questions.

• ftp linux83.unoeuro.com
  
• when prompted, enter your username
  
• when prompted, enter its password
  
• the prompt will change to ftp>
  
•    then you can use the 'pwd' command to get the full pathname for your user's home directory
  
•    you can run the 'ls' command to see if there's a public_html tree there and what it's permissions are
  
•    enter 'bye' to exit

I think the problem was in the ftp-server - now I am near a solution.

However, while waiting, I installed weewx 4.10.1, and used my old configuration, installing in /home/jjk/weewx:

##############################################################################

# This section is for general configuration information.

# Set to 1 for extra debug info, otherwise comment it out or set to zero
debug = 1

# Root directory of the weewx data file hierarchy for this station
WEEWX_ROOT = /home/jjk/weewx

# Whether to log successful operations
log_success = True

# Whether to log unsuccessful operations
log_failure = True

# How long to wait before timing out a socket (FTP, HTTP) connection
socket_timeout = 20

# Do not modify this. It is used when installing and updating weewx.
version = 4.10.1

##############################################################################

#   This section is for information about the station.

However, when I use 

sudo cp util/systemd/weewx.service /etc/systemd/system
sudo systemctl enable weewx
sudo systemctl start weewx

it apparently starts, but when checking with sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog, it has exited, haven't been able to find:

Feb 20 14:19:58 raspberrypi systemd[5453]: weewx.service: Failed to execute command: No such file or directory
Feb 20 14:19:58 raspberrypi systemd[5453]: weewx.service: Failed at step EXEC spawning /home/weewx/bin/weewxd: No such file or directory
Feb 20 14:19:58 raspberrypi systemd[1]: weewx.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=203/EXEC
Feb 20 14:19:58 raspberrypi systemd[1]: weewx.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

- apparently, it is looking for weewxd in the default directory, and not in /home/jjk/weewx?

I must have missed something?

I would not be surprised if the problem is with your web service provider.

You need to modify /etc/systemd/system/weewx.service to point to the correct location for weewxd. Look for option "ExecStart".

Yes, the problem was with my web service provider - could have spared you, Vince and me a lot of trouble, but they wouldn't admit it in the first place, only when I persisted.

Good to hear you solved it !
