[weewx-user] FTP Issue
I have a successful Weewx install running on a PC. Weewx is reading data from my VantagePro, and I can see the current information both at: ///var/www/html/weewx and at http://localhost/weewx I have an FTP account at ftp.RFL.com which is successfully showing the data collected by an another, alternate VantagePro under the directory /AirportWx. Link: http://ericksonfc.ca/AirportWX/ The weewx station is supposed to be using the directory /TownWX at the same server. I edited the file /etc/weewx/weewx.conf (using sudo) to enable the FTP process as noted in weewx.conf, but when I examine the log sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog I see the message (truncated here): Running report FTP Found config file /etc/weewx/skins/FTP/skin.conf FTP upload not requested. Skipped I installed weewx using the http://www.weewx.com/docs/debian.htm method. I have attached the output of wee_debug -- info. I can navigate and log onto my FTP account at ftp.R4L.com using Filezilla, but the directory at http://ericksonfc.ca/TownWX remains empty. One question that I have is - should the line in the FTP portion of weewx.conf that looks like: # HTML_ROOT = /var/www/html/weewx be uncommented? I suspect that somewhere I have missed something basic. Any thoughts?? Dave W. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

[weewx-user] Skin Resembling Wview
I now have a Weewx simulator running on a PC under Lubuntu, with intention to move to a Pi in the future. I have developed an appreciation for the Wview skin format over the years (thanks much, Mark T.), and am wondering if there is a Weewx skin out there that resembles Wview? This is what I currently have running (over many years!) : http://ericksonfc.ca/AirportWX/ I have been looking around the net at various skins for Weewx, but have not yet found just what I want.

[weewx-user] Python Version
I am new to Weewx, and am contemplating my first install. I will be using Debian 9 on a PC, and the Python packages needed by Weewx do not seem to be available in this version of Debian. Is there a work-around? I have scanned the Weewx user manual and find many references to different versions of Python and many problems mentioned due to various versions. This is making me cautious.
