My 2016 WeeWX setup recently crashed so I decided to upgrade with a fresh install with Raspberry Pi OS (Bullseye - I'm using a RPi Zero W as my dedicated computer) and WeeWX 5.1. I am a complete klutz in Linux so I tried to follow the installation instructions as closely as possible.
All went well until I began setting up the local web server. I chose nginx because I have a low power RPi Zero W and because I used nginx in 2016. Unfortunately, I had long since forgotten how I set it up. I used the instructions at the GitHub wiki <https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/Configure-a-web-server-(Apache,-NGINX-or-lighttpd)>. It suggests adding: server { location /weewx { alias /home/weewx/public_html; } to the 'default' file in the </etc/nginx/sites-available/> folder. However, this did not work with my installation. After much head-scratching, I edited the 'alias' line to: alias /var/www/html/weewx/; Because of my limited knowledge of WeeWX and nginx, I didn't try to fiddle with the wiki entry. I don't think I did anything out of the ordinary during the installation. Could these instructions be for an older version of WeeWX? Maybe someone who knows can figure out if the wiki needs to be corrected - the current suggestion didn't work for me. All now seems to be working well with my WeeWX+RPi Zero W+Vantage Vue weather station setup. I hope this helps someone.
