Import of driver failed???

[couchfisher]

Hopefully someone can help. I have the Lacrosse Weather Station and when I initially set it up, everything worked. I could see the log data and information in file:///var/www/html/weewx/index.html. After I modified the weewx.conf for weather underground it no longer finds the driver. I cannot seem to get it to work. If I uninstall everything and re-install it works again, only when I first start weewx. ??

After initial setup:

[matthewwall]

is there something else listening on port 80?

are you certain that weewx was fully shut down after you did '/etc/init.d/weewx stop'? do 'ps ax | grep wee' to see if weewx is still running. do 'netstat -a | grep http' to see if port 80 is in use.

[matthewwall]

closing this because no activity. if it is still a problem, please post to the weewx-user group. use this issue list once we isolate to a specific bug in the weewx-interceptor code.

Same issue here... Nothing on netstat command.

Edit: The Listen IP should be the ip of the weewx computer, NOT the Acurite Bridge's ip.

[matthewwall]

are you running weewx as root?

[Danie10]

Pity no-one has responded with whether they came right or noty. I'm getting the same errors but am running weewx as root and port 80 seems to have LISTEN active. If I navigate to that bride IP address and port, the bridge's web page comes up. Here are my outputs:

Did you not see my edit Danie? The Listen IP in the config file should be the ip of the weewx computer, NOT the Acurite Bridge's ip. After I did this I had to configure my router to point traffic going to acurite servers to my weewx computer. It was a simple DNS configuration.

[Danie10]

Thanks I did miss your edit. I'll see if I can set up that DNS config change.

[Danie10]

@RightRozz after a bit of a struggle I think I got the DNS hijacking to work. If I now ping hubapi.myacurite.com it returns the IP address of my weemx computer (192.168.1.85). But I'm still seeing the error below.

[matthewwall]

some other process is already listening on port 80. kill that other process before you start weewx.

[Danie10]

Thanks @matthewwall that makes sense yes. I did find ip6 listening on that port but after disabling it and rebooting I still get the error so something is still there. It seems to be the essence of what this error is about. I ran the command again to check what is listening but it looks like ip4 TCP? Not sure if it is my Apache server that is serving the webpage? Maybe I should try changing the Apache server to serving on port 8080?

Changed the Apache server listening port to 8080 and it is now all working fine, no errors, and data pulling through fine:

Edit your port by running this command sudo nano /etc/apache2/ports.conf

Change Listen 80 to 8000 To exit nano editor, press ctrl + x then y to save

Then restart apache sudo service apache2 restart

Thanks @Danie10 I made those changes to apache and it got rid of the problem
