Weather34

[Matthieu Devigne]

Hello,

I am installing weather34 with weewx

I put the file service.txt file in weather34

But I have a problem with the installation :

Hi,

The services.txt file must be alongside you weather34 install folder not in it. Eg if your weather34 installer folder is in your home folder, services.txt should be in your home folder as well.

Ian

[Matthieu Devigne]

The services.txt is /home/pi/weewx-Weather34 :

Is no correct ?

[Steeple Ian]

No that is not correct. If that location is where your weewx-Weather34 folder is, services.txt should be /home/pi/services.txt

The reason for that location is to prevent the files services.txt being copied to your webserver during the install process which would the expose all your api keys etc and create a security risk.

[Matthieu Devigne]

Thanks, I have a new problem with weather34.

I don't understand where the problem comes from. I modified weewx.conf

[Steeple Ian]

It looks as though the main weather34.py module has not install correctly.

I will be releasing a new version of the template this evening which I think may help you. 

I will let you know directly when this happens.

Ian

[Matthieu Devigne]

Good ;) , thanks. 

[Steeple Ian]

Hi,

The repository has now been updated to the new vesion 4.2.0

[Matthieu Devigne]

Yes, I download the new version with the method setup py.

I have a permission denied : home/weewx/bin/user/w34hightchartsSearchX.py

And I always have the error messages in syslog.

[Steeple Ian]

Which OS are you using? You may have to prefix your command with sudo

[vince]

Looks like you need to use sudo....

[Matthieu Devigne]

I use debian (raspberry)

[Matthieu Devigne]

When i use sudo python3 /home/pi/weewx-Weather34/w34_installer.py

I have a message :

It is trying to find services.txt using a relative path one level up from the directory you are running the command in.

Try:

• cd /home/pi/weewx-Weather34
  
• sudo python3 /home/pi/weewx-Weather34/w34_installer.py
  

[Steeple Ian]

Vince is correct, it is looking for services.txt one level up from the install folder.

Assuming you downloaded the zip file from the repository into your /home/pi folder and un zipped it, the install folder is weewx-Weather34-main. The services.txt file should also be in your /home/pi folder.

Therefore you should: -

cd weewx-Weather34-main
sudo python3 ./w34_installer.py

[Matthieu Devigne]

Thanks !

Weather34 is running with weewx and debian ! :)

But, I have a message error :

Feb 28 16:56:38 raspberrypi weewx[2897] ERROR user.weather34: Failed getting web service data. URL: https://api.checkwx.com/metar//decoded Header: {'X-API-Key': ''}, Error: HTTP Error 404: Not Found
Feb 28 16:56:38 raspberrypi weewx[2897] ERROR user.weather34: Error Invalid Webservice Data: None, {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_4; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.3 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.103 Safari/534.3'}

And, I don't find a w34_db_backup.py file for put in /home/weewx/bin/user 

Where is he ?

[Steeple Ian]

I am glad the template is now running for you.

Regarding the two errors: -

1. Metar, it looks as though you did not add your X-API-Key or Metar airport code when you generated your services.txt. Did you follow the instructions to obtain a key and find your nearest airport?

The three relevant lines in the web services section of weewx.conf should look something like this (ABCD represents the airport code and 123456789 represents the API Key: -

      me_url = https://api.checkwx.com/metar/ABCD/decoded
      me_header = X-API-Key:123456789
      me_interval = 3600

2. The file should already be in place, all you need to do is edit weewx.conf and restart as in the instructions. I have updated the install instructions to make this clearer>

Ian

[Matthieu Devigne]

Yes, I will watch for the file service.txt.

For weewx.conf I add [Services]] section in the [Engine] stanza. : ,user.w34_db_backup.W34_DB_Backup

And at the end :

[W34_DB_Backup] # database path(s) seperated by , rename this/these database(s) to match your own databases = /home/weewx/archive/weewx.sdb,/home/weewx/archive/another.sdb # backup path(s) comma seperated backups = [your_backup_path]/weewx_backup.sdb,[your_backup_path]/home/pi/another_backup.sdb # set the daily time to backup comma seperated for multiple databases # the time must be set an to archive time so it runs immediately after the archive interval processes are complete backup_times = 00:00,00:00

Yes, sorry but the data for the pression, temperature, and windy for weather34 are not correct.

Is not the real values

What is the problem ?

[Steeple Ian]

Can you let me have your URL please, I need to check your realtime data. The situation in your screen shot indicates that the template is not getting live data from WeeWX.

[Steeple Ian]

Also make sure that WeeWX is actually running after you issued the restart command.

[Matthieu Devigne]

Hi,

Yes, weewx is running.

My URL : www.meteo-champignyonne.fr

[Matthieu Devigne]

With weather 34 : www.meteo-champignyonne.fr/weather34

[Steeple Ian]

You need to change the setting for your live data in the settings page: -

[Matthieu Devigne]

I didn't have change the setting (/var/www/html/weewx/weather34/serverdata/w34realtime.txt) : 

[Steeple Ian]

You need to change the path to serverdata/w34realtime.txt

[Matthieu Devigne]

Yes, the data are in live. Thanks. 😊

1) I see that the wind gust and wind speed are not the true data. Why ?

2) And, the data history data on charts is not run (all the charts) :

With a error message

[Steeple Ian]

1) according to your realtime file, the wind is calm at the moment

2) Most charts are working perfectly for me. You will need to wait for a while for the weekly reports to be run.

Also, you need to activate a free account with Aeris Weather to get your weather warnings working correctly.

Aeris Weather will also give far more detail for your weather forecasts compard with your current choice of Weather Underground.

[Matthieu Devigne]

1) I have a difference between weewx and weather 34 :

For today with weewx, I have gust wind max at 12km/hh and weather34  43.2km/h.

On my weather station him : 12km/k

2) All the charts are stopped for history (when I choose a date) : 

[Matthieu Devigne]

Hi,

I installed weather34 a second time.

Aeris isn't running with weather34. I activate a free version of aeris.

I don't understand how activate aeris.  There is a code somewhere ?
