to answer that one it may help to know how you installed weewx in the first place!! Different installation methods put things in different places.
what exactly do you mean by 'getting data on the GUI'?? the likely explanation is that the webpages are being generated from a version of weewx.sdb which is located in a different place - and weewx itself is possibly using a version of weewx.conf which is not the one you looked at!!
