Migrate Meteohub to Meteobridge -- RPi

Post by RickNY »

I am thinking of migrating Meteohub to Meteobridge on my RPi.. Can someone please clarify something? I was under the impression that historical data can be imported into Meteobridge on the RPi with the instructions here - viewtopic.php?f=57&t=15453 (which states can be done with PRO, Nano, or RPI)

However -- in this post - viewtopic.php?p=42173#p42173 it is reported that this is only supported on the PRO and the Nano SD - and that doing it on the RPI will lose all the old data. Can someone please confirm which it is?

Thanks,
Rick

you have to read the 2nd post closely 8)
It says if you want to install Meteobridge on the same RPi you are running Meteohub now, you will lose the historical data (of your Meteohub installation), because there is only either MB or MH on that RPi.
If you have saved, backed up your data beforehand, you can of course import them again as described in the first reference post.
You will have lost the data in Meteohub (because it has been overwritten by the Meteobridge installation), but after importing the beforehand saved data from Meteohub into Meteobridge they will then be available on Meteobridge..

Following the instructions in the first post works fine. The second post just adds confusion because it leads you to believe the data import can’t be done on RPI. I should have followed up 10 months ago when I first asked this question.
