Hi, I’m new to all this weewx stuff, and I am running into some setup issues, any help would be appreciated.
I apologise that this particular post is a duplicate of one I made a few hours ago in a different thread, but I had issues with Groups quarantining my messages. Anyway here is the request in its own thread.
Situation so far, Davis Vantage Pro 2 died, so has been replaced with a WeatherFlow Tempest.
Using:
Linux Mint 20.3
Weewx v4.8
BelcherTown v1.2
WeatherFlow-UDP v1.1
I am attempting to get the Forecast displayed on the main page of the Belchertown skin.
This is what I’ve done so far:
Got the “stock” BelcherTown skin. Weewx and WeatherFlow-UDP all playing nicely together and uploading data to my weather page.
Setup PSW account and got an API key
Setup forwarding to PSW
[[PWSWeather]
enable = true
station = STRANDHERDMEADOWS
password = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
PWS receives and displays my data
Setup Aeris weather account and got both the ID and Secret key
Downloaded the forecast extension “weewx-forecast-master.zip” from
https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-forecastThen installed it
sudo wee_extension --install weewx-forecast-master.zip
There were no errors on install.
At this point when I restart weewx it seems to go through a cycle of data collection and then the syslog records this and weewx stops.:

Anyone
any thoughts on what the problem may be, I have never done any programming with
Python, which is where the errors appear to be coming from. Even better, is
there an idiots guide to installing the forecast capability out there.
