Thanks for the link. Still trying to get it installed on the Mac. I seem to be close. Not getting any errors it seems but I don't have the directory: - *file:///Users/Shared/weewx/public_html/* and the file *file:///Users/Shared/weewx/public_html/index.html.*
So I think it's running in the background but I need that folder and file to see it. Is that right - you type that into the browser and it launches? Thanks again, Peter.
