OK thanks guys... I'm a bit of a linux noob so I am not sure how to do symbolic links. Therefore I opted to change the directory where the web pages are living, to: HTML_ROOT = /var/www/html - This fixed it... but now I have another issue, undoubtedly related to the Vantage data corruption issue. I now get the correct web server, but the web page shows a date from two days ago and does not update. When I try to run wee_device commands I get a permissions issue on the USB port. PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/dev/ttyUSB0' How can I get permissions on the USB port? (Remember Linux noob)... I can start a new topic about this if necessary.
