Hello I reinstalled weewx with python3 , and installed the wh23xx driver. 
It shows up in the /home/weewx/bin/user directory. 
But somehow it isn't recognized by wee_config.
What did I do wrong, can someone plz help me?

Greetings, Arp77

Hi,

The  wh23xx driver has not been ported to python3. Whilst that doesn't prevent you from installing the driver under python3, if there are any errors when importing the driver this will cause wee_config to ignore the driver. My guess is there are errors when importing the wh23xx driver under python3 (these will be transparent to you when running wee_config). You have a couple of options; first is to install WeeWX under python2, second is to convert the driver to python3 (which should not be too difficult).

Hi Gary,

thank you, for your answer. That makes sense, I didn't think it could be that
I will install it the old way with Python2 again.

Greetings, Arp
