I'm running weewx on Fedora 34 also with the same concerns about the weewx
folder being owned by root. However, it runs okay.
Do you have a weewx.conf in /etc/httpd/conf.d? Mine looks like
alias /weewx /home/weewx/public_html
<Directory /home/weewx/public_html>
WSGIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL}
Options FollowSymlinks
AllowOverride None
<IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
# Apache 2.4
Require all granted
</IfModule>
</Directory>
Best,
Clifford
