yeh, i figured that out in the end - thanks. I got the simulator running on both feebsd (nginx) and kubuntu (apache2) and i have installed the interceptor on both with the instructions in her https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-interceptor i set to observer for the Fine Offset WH2900C but it is still showing me the Simulator on both firefox and chrome. I have tried clearing the cache and restarting, but even from a fresh machine it shows the simulator.
