I'm not sure if you have understood the weewx concepts ...
What would be the use of changing skins - except you don't like the
Seasons skin ....
But before you do this, you better get weewx running with the default
Seasons skin.
Once running, you can add or switch skins.
You probably want to use data from your station - then you have to
change your station, not the skin
You need to install the driver for your station ...
So you have to install the respective weewx driver for your station
which would then replace the Simulator station.
What's your station ? Brand, model ?

I'm now trying:
change the skin and get out of simulation to real data. Unfortunately,
I have no luck with it.
I'm using the following:
# Stop the daemonsudosystemctlstopweewx # Reconfigure to use your
hardwareweectlstationreconfigure # Delete the old
databaserm/var/lib/weewx/weewx.sdb # Start the
daemonsudosystemctlstartweewx
But seems it does not reflect my selected meteo station and keeps
using Simulation.
The same with skin which I try to change in*etc/weewx/weewx.conf *but
it does not reflect anything.
I'm sorry for these questions, your support is very helpful.

Let's see whats next then. Thanks again.

@Sidney - I think you are confusing a few things and are
comparing apples with pears.
You may not be aware of the functionality of and the need to
have a webserver (program).
CumulusMX has an inbuilt webserver, but not one which is
available to users other than the CMX users.
So when you can reach CMX via a defined port and the URL of
your weewx server e.g. IP:8998 this doesn't mean that a
generally available webserver is installed.
So, as Vince already mentioned, a webserver like nginx or
apache2 needs to be installed for you to see the weewx skin
via a browser via the URL.
You can of course open /var/www/html/weewx/index.html in a web
browser by loading it into the browser, but to reach it via
the URL ip-address/weewx a webserver is needed which has
access to the html-root (default /var/www/html) and
subdirectories and replies to your http request.

Thank you, Vince.
Seems I'm a bit lost in it and will be exploring it to find
the trouble.

You didn't provide enough detail to really understand
your setup. Does Cumulus MX have some software it runs
that responds on port 8998 ?
Did you even install a normal webserver such as nginx or
apache ? If not, see the wiki (link)
<https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/Configure-a-web-server-(Apache,-NGINX-or-lighttpd)>
for
how to do install one and hook it together with weewx.

When I try to go to http://192.168.0.40/weewx I'm
getting This site can’t be reached. Sorry for
probably a silly question. Appreciate your support.
THank you.

correct, but weewx (its Seasons skin) doesn't
have a realtime dashboard (except you install the
mqtt based Belchertown skin).
The update interval is defined in weewx.conf and
could go down to one minute instead of five
minutes (in theory - in practice to be found out
if the reports can complete in that short time)

And for example, when I want to view my

Hi, I believe I've successfully installed
weewx. The manual says:
After about 5 minutes (the exact length of
time depends on your archive interval), copy
the following and paste into a web browser.
You should see your station information and
data.
/var/www/html/weewx/index.html
Can anyone help me how to call for this
index from another computer on the same
network? I'm connected to my Raspberry over
SSH and cannot open the browser there. Thank
you.
