I have installed the sky weather2 system as per the tutorial and relying on several forum posting when things when wrong. However I have got to the point where I am starting the system and when I run: sudo pyhton3 SkyWeather2.py I get error messages that I cannot find an answer for.

Output below:
pi@raspberrypi:~/SDL_Pi_SkyWeather2 $ sudo python3 SkyWeather2.py

./SkyWeather2.JSON File exists

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/home/pi/SDL_Pi_SkyWeather2/SkyWeather2.py", line 35, in <module>

import wiredSensors

File "/home/pi/SDL_Pi_SkyWeather2/wiredSensors.py", line 8, in <module>

from past.utils import old_div

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'past'

Does anyone have any ideas as I have obviously doing something wrong?

cheers
Maurice

You are missing a package called future (weird I know - looking for past but need future to get it)

use pip and install - that should fix the problem

Example:

pi@WPI2~$ pip install future

Here's a link that explains what it does

I have installed the system but when I run the sudo python3 testWirelessSensors.py I do not see the main weather sensor I only see the indoor temp unit.

This is the output from running the py script:

pi@raspberrypi:~/SDL_Pi_Skyweather2 $ sudo python3 testWirelessSensors.py
Starting Wireless Read
rtl_433 version -128-NOTFOUND branch master at 202104131855 inputs file rtl_tcp RTL-SDR

Use -h for usage help and see triq.org/ for documentation.

quiet option (-q) is default and deprecated. See -v to increase verbosity

Consider using "-M newmodel" to transition to new model keys. This will become the default someday.

Is there any recomendations as to which battery manufacturer is best for skyweather2?

It's worth the price difference. BP
