## Problems on a Raspberry Pi?
I'm not sure about the cause of this behaviour, but **Andreas DG0LFL** reported, that his
Raspberry Pi 4 (running Debian 10 Buster) could not update the token so he solved this by
creating `/etc/systemd/system/weewx.timer` with the following contents:
```ini
[Unit]
Description=WeeWX-Timer
[Timer]
OnBootSec=5min
OnUnitActiveSec=120min
Unit=weewx.service
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```
As for my understanding this should start `weewx.service` 5 minutes after system boot as well as
every 120 minutes after the services last start.
He had noticed, that the netatmo-driver wasn't updating the token so it got invalid after 10800
seconds (3 hours).
You would probably need to run `systemctl enable weewx.timer` to enable the timer.
