Hi Matthew I am aware that /var/www/html is not the same as /var/www/html/weewx. Under html is my joomla Homepage and under html/weewx should weather data go. That worked fine with version 4.10.2
I made again a new installation in the meantime, version 5. with the same permission problem. Now I realise that "weewx" is NOT running the process `weewxd`. It runs under my own user. How can I set required permissions to my user or how can weewx take over the the weewxd process? Sorry to ask but my Linuxknowledge is limited :-| Thanks again for help.
