I failed to include it in my snippet. Here is the entire, non-edited RSYNC
section in my weewx.conf:
[[RSYNC]]
# rsync'ing to a webserver is treated as just another report
skin = Rsync
# If you wish to use rsync, you must configure passwordless ssh
using
# public/private key authentication from the user account that weewx
# runs to the user account on the remote machine where the files
# will be copied.
#
# If you wish to use rsync, set "enable" to "true", then
# fill out server, user, and path.
# The server should appear in your .ssh/config file.
# The user is the username used in the identity file.
# The path is the destination directory, such as
/var/www/html/weather.
# Be sure that the user has write permissions on the destination!
enable = true
server = www
user = weewx
path = /var/www/htdocs/wx
# To upload files from something other than what HTML_ROOT is set
# to above, specify a different HTML_ROOT here.
#HTML_ROOT = /var/www/html/weewx
# Rsync can be configured to remove files from the remote server if
# they don't exist under HTML_ROOT locally. USE WITH CAUTION: if you
# make a mistake in the remote path, you could could unintentionally
# cause unrelated files to be deleted. Set to 1 to enable remote
file
# deletion, zero to allow files to accumulate remotely.
delete = 0
