Hi,

I presume the message you refer to is:

Oct 27 06:25:18 Plexserver weewx[14446] INFO weewx.reportengine: Copied 0 
files to /home/weewx/public_html

This is normal and is not necessarily a sign that anything is amiss. The 
line concerned is the from the CopyGenerator and is quite correct, it did 
not copy any files. The CheetahGenerator is creating files from your 
cheetah templates and the ImageGenerator is creating image files for your 
plots. These generators place the generated files in the correct 
destination directory not the CopyGenerator.

The CopyGenerator <http://weewx.com/docs/customizing.htm#[CopyGenerator]> 
is used to copy static files from a skin directory to somewhere else on the 
system. It is typically used to copy static css or javascript files for use 
by a web server. The CopyGenerator has two modes of operation; copy once 
where it copies files on the first report cycle after WeeWX has started or 
copy always where it copies the specified files on every report cycle. The 
WeeWX Seasons and Standard skins (by default) run the CopyGenerator (along 
with the CheetahGenerator and ImageGenerator) on each report cycle but 
the CopyGenerator is not used to copy any files.

If the line is annoying you can do one of two things. You can prevent the 
Seasons skin from invoking the CopyGenerator by removing it from the 
generator_list config setting at the bottom of the Seasons skin config file 
(skins/Seasons/skin.conf). You could also set log_success = false under 
[StdReport] in weewx.conf, but this will also have the effect of silencing 
all log entries for all generators not just the CopyGenerator.
