Yes thank you it works Vince!
I've been racking my brains over these Apache directories for a while and I
admit I haven't thought about reversing my symbolic links, idiot that I
am...! :-(
Perhaps an even simpler solution would have been to put the version 4 path
back in weewx.conf...?
However, I would have liked to understand why I was unable to reach my
~/weewx-venv/public_html directory with my initial symbolic links... The
rights seemed to have been assigned correctly to the directories.
But in any case it works with your method! So I'm keeping it :-)))
Thank you Vince and have a good weekend
