I have done some more research. It have tried again with standard skin, and it is doing the same thing whether I use standard or byteweather, so my challenge is not about Byteweather skin. So far so good.
And as Tom suggests looking in the logfile, there are some things that suggests that the system is not running with the right locale: log snippet: engine: Locale is 'LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NUMERIC=de_DE.UTF-8;LC_TIME=de_DE.UTF-8;LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_MONETARY=de_DE.UTF-8;LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8;LC_PAPER=de_DE.UTF-8;LC_NAME=de_DE.UTF-8;LC_ADDRESS=de_DE.UTF-8;LC_TELEPHONE=de_DE.UTF-8;LC_MEASUREMENT=de_DE.UTF-8;LC_IDENTIFICATION=de_DE.UTF-8' I have tried changing the locale the way you suggest, but with no effect, because if I do a echo $LANG it responds with da_DK.utf8 (I wrote it wrong in my post without the underscore, but it IS with an underscore). So no doubt the problem is within the server, not weewx. But I'm still on a learning curve on linux (and weewx), but I love it (both actually). :-) Bent torsdag den 27. september 2018 kl. 15.17.20 UTC+2 skrev gjr80: > > I looked through the byteweather repo earlier and it is essentially the > same core template code (ie tags etc) as Standard but with different > css/layout applied.
