Whoops, premature posting...
Be careful when interpreting 'how many files are copied'. The line
Nov 25 17:35:44 raspberrypi weewx[1619]: copygenerator: copied 0 files to /
home/weewx/public_html/belchertown
is the result of the copy generator being run. The copy generator is
frequently used to copy css, js or other type files usually not the files
produced by the report generator. If you are properly using HTML_ROOT and
other path related tools there is no need for copy generator to copy a
generated report as the report generator will save the generated file to
the required destination directory. Typically the copy generator copies
files either once only on the first report cycle or on every report cycle.
When files are copied and what files are copied is controlled by the
[CopyGenerator] stanza in skin.conf. Looking at the Highcharts_Belchertown
skin config file [CopyGenreator] stanza is set thus:
[CopyGenerator]
# This section is used by the generator CopyGenerator
# List of files to be copied only the first time the generator runs
copy_once = favicon.ico, images/*, json/index.html, js/index.html,
js/responsive-menu.js
# List of files to be copied each time the generator runs
copy_always = style.css
Since none of the copy_once or copy_always files/patterns exist for that
skin no files will ever be copied. So seeing the log entry above for the
Highcharts_Belchertown skin is exactly what is expected and is not an
indicator of correct or otherwise oepration.
