Feature request WX info #35 Error using example

Open DB1MIC opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Hello everybody, I'm trying to use Direwolf with weewx and wxnow.txt. weewx is working, wxnow.txt is written, direwolf.conf is set up with the example here: https://github.com/wb2osz/direwolf/issues/35

But I receive the following output: Reading config file direwolf.conf Config file: No = found in, -1, on line 264. In Line 264 is my PBEACON configured like: PBEACON every=1 LAT=49^29.08N LONG=8^32.43E symbol="digi" commentcmd=”tail -1 /var/tmp/wxnow.txt”

I have no idea what is wrong.

DB1MIC, Michael

You probably did a copy/paste from somewhere rather than typing all of it. Some document editing applications, change ASCII " characters to what they call "smart quotes" where different symbols are used at the beginning and end of quoted sections. Solution is to retype the " characters for commentcmd.
