Thanks for the input, I'm running Weewx on an old laptop with Kubuntu just for learning purposes. I've installed Lighttpd and its working so thanks again. Out of interest, my hope is to run Weewx and interogate my Ecowitt gateway with the GW1000 driver on a Raspberry Pi. Would you recommend I install a web server, Apache2, Nginx or Lighttpd first on the Raspberry PI OS before installing Weewx or doesn't it matter?
