Your weewx.conf works ok versus the uajqq version in github, but the
belchertown.py that you uploaded here looks like it's not that version.
In the belchertown.py skin you uploaded line 244 is the locale error
if belchertown_debug:
log.error(
* f"Locale: Error using locale
{self.generator.skin_dict["Extras"]["belchertown_locale"]}. "*
f"This locale may not be installed on your system
and you may see unexpected results. "
f"Belchertown skin JavaScript will try to use this
locale. Full error: %{error}"
)
But around line 222 (much different) in
https://github.com/uajqq/weewx-belchertown-new/blob/master/bin/user/belchertown.py
I see:
if belchertown_debug:
log.error(
f"Error using locale {belchertown_locale}. "
"This locale may not be installed on your system
and you may see unexpected results. "
f"Python could not set the requested locale, but
Belchertown skin JavaScript will attempt to use the provided locale string.
Full error: {error}"
)
So my wild guess is you have some hacked/previous/miscellaneous/unknown
version of the forked skin. Perhaps try installing the real one ?
