ImportError for configobj on install

[Bob Breck]

Trying to run the setup.py for 2.5.0 on a Raspberry Pi, and I keep getting an error saying that there's an error in line 56, and that it can't find a module named configobj to import. Any ideas? Have tried to reload a fresh version, but no go. Thanks!

Hi,
Did you install the prerequisites (including python-configobj) as per the setup.py instructions in the user guide? If not that may well be the source of your problem, else you might need to post the weewx log snippet including startup

I think that you're right--I have not done any additional installs. Is there a convenient link to download all of the prerequisite files?

Thanks so much!

I think the User's Guide on the Weewx site will have everything you need! Goto weewx.com, DOCS, User's Guide, 4.3. Installing using the Python tool setup.py. It is very comprehensive and should have all the steps you need to go through to install Weewx.
