blame it on more redhat-ification (and disregard for users) of debian. in debian 7 and earlier, DocumentRoot was /var/www in debian 8, DocumentRoot is /var/www/html in redhat and suse, DocumentRoot has been /var/www/html for quite some time there are at least two solutions: a) modify HTML_ROOT in weewx.conf: sudo sed -i -e 's%HTML_ROOT =.*%HTML_ROOT = /var/www/html/weewx%' /etc/weewx/weewx.conf b) create a symlink to the weewx report directory: sudo ln -s ../weewx /var/www/html i tend to prefer the latter, especially for systems such as rpi where the weewx reports are on a tmpfs to minimize sd card wear. i have not yet figured out a solution for the weewx .deb package that will work out-of-the-box with pre deb8 and post deb8 systems. it would be nice if it worked with lighthttpd and nginx web servers as well as apache. m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
