>From what you describe it sounds like WeeWX has finished downloading historical archive records and is now running normally. Presence or absence of files on a website is a gross error check only - you can tell things are (likely) working or not working. To see exactly what your system/WeeWX is doing look at the log. If something doesn't work - go to the log. The tail command I gave you will show new log entries as they come in, but it only shows you log entries from the time you enter the command. If you are using FileZilla to view generated files use it (FileZilla) to open your log and scroll to the end, then scroll up to where WeeWX was last started, look for the WeeWX startup and history download from the logger, then you will see records being saved to archive every minute and reports being run. Are there any errors or reports being skipped that shouldn't?
If WeeWX seems to be running error free then look at your web server. Is is local (eg your WeeWX machine) or is it remote? If it is a different machine to that which runs WeeWX how are you transferring the WeeWX generated HTML files etc to the web server? Is WeeWX doing it - in which case look at the log, or are you doing it some other way? Are the files being transferred successfully? To the correct location? These are the sorts of things you need to look at, you need to start with WeeWX and work through the data flow to your web server verifying operation as you go.
