As I seemed to be spinning my wheels, I started over with a fresh install.
This time it works OK.
However I was surprised that this installation now has the Weather34 (php)
files combined with the weewx (html) files in the /var/weewx/reports
directory.
All log and webpage files are now going to the ramdisk, this is a
configuration that I can work with. I'm going to archive and back up this
configuration.
