I do it in the opposite direction. The /var/www/html/weewx path is a
directory. The /home/<user>/weewx-data/public_html path is a symlink 'to'
the webserver directory.
For a pip installation:
sudo mkdir /var/www/html/weewx
sudo chown ${WEEWXUSER}:${WEEWXUSER} /var/www/html/weewx
ln -s /var/www/html/weewx /home/${WEEWXUSER}/weewx-data/public_html
