How to add BMP180 to WEEWX? I´m trying....

[Julio Morais]

Hi !

I am not succeeding in installing the BMP180 sensor for reading and printing from WEEWX.
Phyton's reading is ok:

pi@raspberrypi:~/Adafruit-Raspberry-Pi-Python-Code/Adafruit_BMP085
$ sudo python Adafruit_BMP085_example.py

Temperature: 30.10 C

Pressure:    988.77 hPa

Altitude:    206.01 The following steps were:

Rename Adafruit_BMP085_example.py to : BMP180.py

a)Copy for user directory(Debian): /usr/share/weewx/user

b) Include in weewx.conf ....Engine...Services.....report_services = weewx.engine.StdPrint, weewx.engine.StdReport, user.BMP180.Barometer

sudo /etc/init.d/weewx stop

sudo /etc/init.d/weewx start

Don´t work and Apache stop working! Any help? Tks!

I suspect that your problem is that there is a big difference between a
test program that writes to standard out and a weewx driver.

It would help to point out where you got the instructions to do that,
and probably ask the author.
