WeeWx 4.1.1 VM Error

[Francisco Puig]

I just finished configuring a new WeeWx in Ubuntu 16.04 running in a VM and I'm getting the errors below, not sure if this is related with my VM or with the WeWx code.

Hi,

It appears that you have told WeeWX to use the Ultimeter driver is no [Ultimeter] stanza in weewx.conf. Either add it manually or use wee_config --reconfigure and select Ultimeter when prompted for a driver to use.

Thanks Gary, that fixed the issue.
