John,
I have done a bit of thinking and testing on my Ubuntu setup. Three things
here.
1. Missing LC_ALL is an issue. Find your favourite information to fix on
Google.
2. Missing LC_ALL will mean "%x %X" will give what you are seeing on
index.html
3. I expect that Niculskin code for localising strings is giving havoc to
weewx ConfigObj code and making weewx.conf override skin.conf (just a
guess).
Fixes?
A. Fix LC_ALL (Looks like setting in /etc/environment is best bet). Can
test by running in python interpreter .
You will see for me, where I also have the LC_ALL issue, I get the wrong
format with "%x %X", even though the rest of my LC_X and en_AU.
>>> import datetime
>>> datetime.datetime.now().strftime("%x %X")
'01/22/17 19:16:00'
B. Since you don't need Niculskin localisation, you can not use the
Niculskin binaries CheetahGeneratorTranslated. Revert back to
weewx.cheetahgenerator.CheetahGenerator.
Good luck.
Cheers
Darryn
