No images being generated

[Richard Cain]

Hi

Everything seems to be working OK, (new readings are being saved to the database) but no new images are being generated on my website (https://www.globalwanderings.co.uk/weather/) . I looked in the docs (

WeeWX generates HTML pages, but it does not update them)

and they suggested unplugging and taking the batteries out of the console which I did and also clearing the memory (wee_device --clear-memory) but that still hasn't fixed the problem. I've attached the log. 

The problem seems to be here:

Not being a computer whizz I don't know what to do.

Any suggestions?

Hi Richard,

It looks like python-imaging has not installed for some reason. Try entering the following at a command prompt:

$ sudo apt-get install python-imaging

Assuming that installs without error stop then start weeWX wait 5 or 6 minutes and see if your plots are generated.

Hi

Thanks for that. As it happens that didn't work for me either (I got the message python-imaging is not available) but I installed pillow which I think is an updated version and this seems to have worked.

I can't understand why this problem suddenly emerged.

thanks again.

Richard
