Having a problem getting autowx2.py to run:
pi@raspberrypi:~/autowx2 $ ./autowx2.py - It looks like something with how matplotlib might be installed, and not sure what to do here. Can you help? Error codes below:

Hi, thanks for this report. However it seems there is a problem with matplotlib, please see this thread: matplotlib/matplotlib#9344 - maybe you could follow advises mentioned there (like re-installing matplotlib, or downgrading it)?

Anyway, please share your progress in solving this problem here :)

[ZL1RAH]

Hello Thank you for the reply, but I managed to get that going by typing "sudo apt-get install python-matplotlib" However I'm stuck because the rest seems to be running, expect the flask server. I don't see any web pages, and when I change the port number, the startup crashes: This is my startup: 2020-04-23 09:57  ⚡ Program start 2020-04-23 09:57  Killing all remaining rtl_* processes...

WebSocket transport not available

Hallo from Sweden to New Zealand,

please try to see how it will change the startup if you install
pip install gevent
It seems that this is missing.

I also recommend to use Apache or lighttpd instead of flask. Working better for me.

Try to run pip as sudo if you install something.
And yes why not upgrade but run it as i wrote. Use Sudo or command "su -" and then as root

Hello there OK I had to do the following to get gevent to install: It was missing the ffi library #sudo apt-get install libffi-dev #sudo pip install gevent However I still get this error: [2020-04-24 01:52:56,026] WARNING in __init__: WebSocket transport not available.

Hey Rodger,

that is not an error just a warning.
You may give this a try.
https://pypi.org/project/gevent-websocket/
Use sudo or login as root.

[ZL1RAH]

Hello Thanks for the help so far. I think its mostly working, except that I cannot see the flask web server from any other computer on my network. I can see it from the Rasp PI. Is there a way to change this and how? It's only looking at 127.0.0.1.  I want to look at 192.168.1.3 on my network.

Hallo Rodger,

im not using flask just because of that. I was getting the same problem and could not figure out how to get access to flask from the locale network or give access to public.
Im using Apache2. Makes some symlinks to my locale webserver and done.

So im sorry at this point i cant help you.

Best from Sweden

Take care of you

[ZL1RAH]

Hello All I did some reseach and found this: Change the flask IP from 127.0.0.1 to 0.0.0.0 so that all machines on that net can see the web server *_Change: _* /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/flask_socketio/ *__init__.py *to host='0.0.0.0'.

You may missing rtl_433
https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433

[filipsPL]

@ZL1RAH rtl_433 is not required to run autowx2. Could you share your config file /autowx2_conf.py? Maybe you have it enabled by default in:

scriptToRunInFreeTime = baseDir + "bin/rtl_433.sh"

just comment that line and uncomment the follwing:

scriptToRunInFreeTime = False

best,
Filip
