Install weewx on ReadyNas Duo - problem with Python?
I am trying to install the weather software weewx on my ReadyNas Duo. I started without checking for necessary packages, following the installation guideline: http://www.weewx.com/docs/debian.htm ...

Just to follow up on this issue, I got some professional help to get weewx installed on the ReadyNAS Duo v2:
1. Download Python module:
# wget --no-check-certificate https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/c/configobj/configobj-4.7.2.tar.gz
2. Unpack module:
# tar -zxvf configobj-4.7.2.tar.gz
3. Install module
# cd configobj-4.7.2.tar.gz
# python setup.py install --prefix=/opt/python-2.7.3
4. Download software
# wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/weewx/weewx-2.5.1.tar.gz
5. Unpack software
# tar -zxvf weewx-2.5.1.tar.gz
# cd weewx-2.5.1
6. Install weewx
# python setup.py install
Now the installation does not complain about missing Python or what so ever, but I still have trouble running this SW. Some of the modules for communicating wiht the Davis weather station complain when I try to start them up, something like non existing file or directory, although I can see the module name in the folder. I found out that I am missing the CP210x driver, so I cannot even establish basic communication with the Davis weather station via e.g. Minicom because /dev/ttyUSBx is not being created, but I placed my questions about this in a different thread...
