john, weewx does not install anything into /var/www/html. however, it *does* put files and images in /var/www/html/weewx as soon as it has some data from the hardware. that will not happen until after one archive interval, and the factory default archive interval on fine offset stations is 30 minutes. see the 'where to find things' table in the user guide, or the 'layout' table at the bottom of the debian.htm guide itself. the log snippet you posted shows that weewx is unable to communicate with your weather station. if you post more of the log we could help figure out why. please post from the first weewx log entries. what is your archive interval? are you using hardware record generation? the log will tell us all of this. it would also help to know which kind of fine offset hardware you are using. btw, you could install directly from the suse rpm or tarball if you don't want to bother with a virtual machine. m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
