you want this:

ps ax | grep wee

or, if you prefer:

/etc/init.d/weewx status

or, if you have taken the kool-aid:

systemctl status weewx

i'm partial to ps - no extra layers or ideologies :)

you can use nginx, lighthttpd, apache, or any web server you prefer.  just 
symlink from the web server's document root to the weewx public_html 
directory, for example:

ln -s /home/weewx/public_html /var/www/html/weewx
 
public_html should already have the correct permissions (must be writable 
by whatever user owns the weewxd process).

drwxr-xr-x  6 root root  4096 Jan  1 17:20 public_html

be sure that weewx is actually running.  'ps ax|grep wee' will tell you 
that, and if it is not running, take a look at /var/log/syslog to find out 
why it quit. 

just earlier today we found another usb failure mode for the wmr300 
stations:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/weewx-user/teVxjoRMOb8

you might want to grab the wmr300-0.19rc3.py driver from the end of that 
thread.  but please check  your syslog first and let me know if you go the 
same failure.  it looks like "Operation timed out" and "Connection timed 
out" really are different types of failures (i suspect the latter is more 
common on raspberry pi, where the weewx service is up and running before 
the usb subsystem has been fully initialized).
