This is a guide to installing <span class='code'>weewx</span>
|
|
from a DEB package on Debian-based systems, including Ubuntu, Mint, and Raspian operating systems.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Download</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Download the DEB package from <a href="http://weewx.com/downloads"><span class="code">weewx.com/downloads</span></a>. It will have a name similar to <span class='symcode'>weewx_X.Y.Z-R_all.deb</span>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Install</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you are running a graphical interface, you can install by double-clicking the .deb file.
|
|
Alternatively, if you are running from a command line, use the command:</p>
|
|
<pre class='tty cmd'>sudo dpkg -i <span class="symcode">weewx_X.Y.Z-R_all.deb</span>
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>The installer will prompt for a location, latitude/longitude, altitude,
|
|
station type, and parameters specific to your station hardware.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If dpkg complains about dependency problems, use <span class="code">apt-get</span>
|
|
to resolve the dependencies and complete the installation:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre class='tty cmd'>sudo apt-get update
|
|
sudo apt-get -f install</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
When you are done, <span class="code">weewx</span> will be running in the background as a daemon.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Status</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To make sure things are running properly look in the system log for messages from
|
|
<span class='code'>weewx</span>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre class='tty cmd'>sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog</pre>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Verify</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
After about 5 minutes, open the station web page in a web browser. You
|
|
should see your station information and data.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre class='tty'><a href="file:///var/www/weewx/index.html">file:///var/www/weewx/index.html</a></pre>
|
|
<p>If your hardware supports hardware archiving, then how long you wait
|
|
will depend on the
|
|
<a href="usersguide.htm#archive_interval">archive interval</a>
|
|
set in your hardware.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Customize</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To enable uploads such as Weather Underground or to customize reports,
|
|
modify the configuration file <span class='code'>/etc/weewx/weewx.conf</span>.
|
|
See the <a href="usersguide.htm">User Guide</a> and <a
|
|
href="customizing.htm">Customization Guide</a> for details.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<span class='code'>weewx</span> must be restarted for configuration file
|
|
changes to take effect.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
<p>
|
|

|

|
|

|
|
|
|
<h2>Uninstall</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|

|
|
and data:

</p>
|
|
