the skin cannot find the 'alltime' search list extension.  cannot say how to fix it without knowing more about your configuration.

how did you do the upgrade?  what version of weewx were you running before?

what's in the skin.conf for sofaskin?

what's in your weewx configuration file?

First i made an update from V.3.6.2 to v.3.7.0

Then i get this Error:

So i deactivated this in the skin.conf

[CheetahGenerator]

    # This section is used by the generator CheetahGenerator, and specifies

    # which files are to be generated from which template.

    # Possible encodings are 'html_entities', 'utf8', or 'strict_ascii'

    encoding = html_entities

    # search_list_extensions = examples.xsearch.MyXSearch

This results in the "alltime" issue

It won't solve itself by posting several times ...

First answer the questions of matthew, afterwards we know a bit more and can give better advise.

I'm having the same issue, as I posted in a separate post. Sorry, I overlooked this thread.

I have weewx running on ubuntu 16.04.2. I upgraded from 3.6.2 to 3.7.0. I must say I always performed a manual update until 3.6.2. Now I added the repository and upgraded by apt-get.

after that, I got this:

In my skin .conf there is this reference:

search_list_extensions = examples.xsearch.MyXSearch

I also tried to comment this out, it breaks things even further, as was said by TS.

On a second system, I'm getting the same error after the update. After that i manually re-installed 3.7.0 by dpkg -i. The issue still persists.

Hi Eelco and VM-83,

I thought this had been answered but apparently not. WeeWX 3.7.0 saw the examples moved out of the bin directory and the xsearch.py SLE example was renamed stats.py. Similarly, the MyXSearch SLE was renamed MyStats (the MyXSearch SLE, now MyStats,provides the $alltime and $seven_day tags). Admittedly it was the 28th item in the change log included in the release post:

Moved examples out of bin directory.  Eliminated experimental directory.

Reinforce the use of user directory, eliminate use of examples directory.

Renamed xsearch.py to stats.py.

To get things working again you will need to copy the file stats.py from the examples directory to your bin/user directory (the examples directory is now in /home/weewx for a setup.py install, not so sure about rpm or deb packages though). Also, in skin.conf the line:

search_list_extensions = examples.xsearch.MyXSearch

will need to be changed to:

search_list_extensions = user.stats.MyStats

This should restore the $alltime and $seven_day tags.

Ok, as far as I can tell the examples directory is not in the deb package so anyone using apt-get or dpkg will not have an examples directory. You can download the stats.py file directly from GitHub by typing the following from the command line on your weeWX machine:

$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/weewx/weewx/master/examples/stats.py

That will download stats.py to the current directory, you can then copy it to the bin/user directory.

Dear Gary,

I think this is the issue, thank you for pointing that out. Shouldn't the installer just take care of this?

However I'm afraid I don quite follow your references to the directories. There is no such directory as /bin/user on my systems. So where exactly should the stats.py reside on a ubuntu/debian system?

if you installed using a deb package, then the user directory is /usr/share/weewx/user

if you installed using setup.py, then the user directory is nominally /home/weewx/bin/user

Read carefully, he said bin/user (ie, the user directory under the weewx $BINDIR) and not /bin/user (a hyptothetical user subdirectory under the os /bin tree)

You probably want to check out http://www.weewx.com/docs/usersguide.htm#Where_to_find_things in the User's Guide to find the location.  Best guess is /usr/share/weewx/bin/user for a Debian system.  You might have to create the directory (sorry - I run setup.py so I can't check easily from here).

[Eelco F]

Allright, I did check  /usr/share/weewx/user but that isn't bin/user right? So I wasn't sure to where he was referring to. I know things are different for setup.py en deb install.

Originally there was no stats.py in /usr/share/weewx/user, after the upgrade to 3.7.0. So i copied it manually now from github to this directory as instructed.

my skin.conf now has this line:  search_list_extensions = user.stats.Mystats

I'm still having issues:

Oops, it should read: search_list_extensions = user.stats.MyStats, Iĺl try again

[Thomas Keffer]

Simple typo. Should be MyStats, not Mystats.

I noticed the typo already. It works now, Thanks a lot everyone.

Why isn't the stats file included in the deb package? It's not an extension is it?

​An oversight. It will be included in v3.7.1.

Ah, very well. We're all human aren't we? ;)

Keep up the good work Tom, I really apreciate weewx and all your effort very much.
