Following the documentation: http://volttron.readthedocs.io/en/4.1/core_services/service_agents/weather/WeatherAgentInstallation.html#configuring-and-launching-the-weather-agent

the steps worked smoothly until the: Configuring Weather Agent with API Key and Location

$ nano services/core/weather/settings.py

first this message shown after typing the above script:

 [ Directory 'services/core/weather' does not exist ]

even I went to the directory and typed: ls it shows the directory and files exist.

init.py settings.py weatheragent.py

After inserting the key value from weather underground, I attempted to save the modified file (settings.py) using (ctrl+x = exit)

first this message shown after trying to exit :

Save modified buffer (ANSWERING "No" WILL DESTROY CHANGES) ?
Y Yes
N No
^C Cancel

I typed Y , and then

File Name to Write: services/core/weather/settings.py

I hit enter

I got the error message :
