 Hi , I am new to Linux and its language but am getting it bit by bit . I finally successfully installed weewx and have it uploading to the main weather page : file:///home/weewx/public_html/index.html . But  it will not update to wunderground or PWS sites respectively . I did the log thing and can not determine what is wrong by reading  it so ...... here is a copy of log .  Thx in advance .

Hi Tim,

On my system Weewx is uploading to both Wunderground and PWS.

As an example, these are my settings in /home/weewx/weewx.conf respectively:

    [[Wunderground]]
        station  = IPARAMAR5
        password = mywundergrounduserpassword
        driver = weewx.restful.Ambient
    
    [[PWSweather]]
        station  = SRPBMUITVL
        password = my pwsweatheruserpassword
        driver = weewx.restful.Ambient

Cheers, Luc

Follow the example given by Luc.

Also, check the system log when weewx starts up. It will give you more information about whether the service was started, particularly if debug=1.

Hey Tom , thanks for quick reply ! 

This is what I did : 

 [[Wunderground]]
        
        #
        # This section is for configuring posts to the Weather Underground
        #
        
        # If you wish to do this, make sure the following two lines are
        # uncommented and filled out with your station and password:
        #    station  = KMODORA3
        #    password = mypassword
        
        driver = weewx.restful.Ambient
    
    [[PWSweather]]
        
        #
        # This section is for configuring posts to PWSweather.com
        #
        
        # If you wish to do this, make sure the following two lines are
        # uncommented and filled out with your station and password:
        #    station  = Doramo1
        #    password = my password

        driver = weewx.restful.Ambient

Tim,

Try deleting the '#' at the beginning of the password and station lines.
See this link http://www.howtogeek.com/118389/how-to-comment-out-and-uncomment-lines-in-a-configuration-file/

 I'm working on it now on my Pi to see if that's it.

What happened with your barometer pressure? From 1013 via 947 to 1052 hPa!

Hey Luc, Sorry for late replie . I have been working on the windows OP (seems to be more troublesome than what it is worth ) and am just booted up . Once I get my webcam online , I will not be using windows as much . Have some nessasary things on win or I would wipe it off my disk . Anyway to your question : What happened with your barometer pressure? I have been trying to correct it in calibration in the weewx config ..but with little success... so far ..  It jumped as high as 31.74 0r so .

   # The pressure calibration offset, in hPa (millibars)
      pressure_offset = -5 .... I'm clueless to this adjusting in millibars to correct in inches :(
