Now you are confusing me. You say 'it should have 4 files to copy', that 
implies to me you are expecting the report generator to generate 4 files 
then you are expecting them to be copied somewhere. Given the conversation 
centres on the copy generator I take it you are expecting the copy 
generator to copy these 4 .json files. The 4 files are in fact generated by 
the report generator, this is evidenced by:

Nov 25 17:35:44 raspberrypi weewx[1619]: cheetahgenerator: Generated 4 
files for report Highcharts_Belchertown in 6.84 seconds

but the copy generator will never copy these files, the copy generator file 
specs in Highcharts_Belchertown skin config file do not match *.json files 
and as I said earlier a properly configured skin does not need such files 
to be copied.

I'm sorry if this seems to be pedantic but when you start talking about 
copying files and copy generators etc you need to quite specific.

In this case I think a bit of sleuthing might be needed on Rich' system to 
ensure the generated files content looks correct (do they have data), are 
saved (not copied) to the correct directory and then suitably made 
available (copied or via symlink) to the web server. Then make sure the JS 
is looking in the correct location for the .json files.
