With all due respect, you should bug your son-in-law to give you a working
system and at least minimal training for how to use it.
Anyway, you mentioned that sudo ls /usr/share/weewx "got me a file listing
of some daemon stuff and a bunch of weewx stuff."
- note for the future: "a bunch of weewx stuff" is a pretty poor problem
report. We can't help you much if you answer cryptically.
That said, if you found things in /usr/share/weewx then he (probably) used
the pre-packaged version. That helps.
Try "sudo systemctl status weewx" and give us the 'full' output of what it
returns. It should return something that looks like the following.
# sudo systemctl status weewx

(if it gives you something at the end saying lines 1/17 in reverse
highlight, hit 'q' to get out of that)
Then wait for the next interval period which (probably) is 5 minutes if he
took the defaults. Then do the systemctl command again and the output
should have changed to something like the following. Note that it shows
weewx is working as expected.
# sudo systemctl status weewx
