OK I'm making progress. I have RTGD creating the gauge-data.txt file every loop and placing it in the html_public directory and it is uploaded at the archive interval. I also have the WU forecast showing on the LED screen.
I can not get the post_gauge-data.php to work. It is not uploading. I placed the php file in the same directory as the SS gauges, www.kq5s.com/weewx/ss<http://www.kq5s.com/weewx/ss>. This is from my weewx config file: [RealtimeGaugeData] date_format = %Y.%m.%d %H:%M scroller_source = WU rtgd_path = /home/weewx/public_html # Remote URL to which the gauge-data.txt data will be posted via HTTP POST. # Optional, omit to disable HTTP POST. remote_server_url = http://www.kq5s.com/weewx/ss # timeout in seconds for remote URL posts. Optional, default is 2 timeout = 1 # text returned from remote URL indicating success. Optional, default is no # response text. response_text = success >From RTGD.PY # Path to gauge-data.txt. Relative paths are relative to HTML_ROOT. If # empty default is HTML_ROOT. If setting omitted altogether default is # /var/tmp rtgd_path = /home/weewx/public_html # File name (only) of file produced by rtgd. Optional, default is # gauge-data.txt. rtgd_file_name = gauge-data.txt # Remote URL to which the gauge-data.txt data will be posted via HTTP POST. # Optional, omit to disable HTTP POST. remote_server_url = http://www.kq5s.com/weewx/ss Any help please?

As you have found the instructions in rtgd.py (step 6 I think) are correct. The offending staff member has since been fired.

I’ll give it a go though I may wait until tomorrow morning when I am fresh. The steps seem pretty involved for us novices. It does appear as though the gauge-data.txt file generated by SS is placed in the public_html/ss directory and the RTGD will place it in the public_html do it should not be an issue.

I intend to use the post_gauge-data.php to get the files on my off-site server. The instructions say: Note: If the SteelSeries weeWX skin is installed either disable the skin or ensure that the Realtime gauge-data extension generated gauge-data.txt file is saved to a different location to that generated by the SteelSeries weeWX skin. Doesn’t the SS skin generate the index.html file and the graphs. I might have read somewhere that the graphs do not work with the RTGD extension but I would think you need the index.html? So do go into the weex.conf file and but ##skin=ss and that is all other than modifying the rtgd.py file?
