My CheetahGenerator is executing regularly but when I make changes to: "/etc/weewx/skins/Standard/index.html.tmpl" I do not see any changes to my html output.  FWIW, I upload data to Wunderground and sftp to a private server and the data is current.  This is my path:

/etc/weewx/weewx.conf

[StdReport] 
SKIN_ROOT = /etc/weewx/skins

Any ideas why changing the index.html.tmpl doesn't do anything?

Hard to speculate with a two line snippet from weewx.conf and no excerpts from the logs at all....

I should have been more clear perhaps.

Is the /etc/weewx/skins/Standard/index.html.tmpl file the template I should edit to make changes to my html file given the following path:

[StdReport]
SKIN_ROOT = /etc/weewx/skins

No idea.  Again we need to see the StdReport section of weewx.con and some logs per the FAQ and Wiki so we can see what you do or don't have enabled.

Thanks for your help vince.  After going through the syslog I was able to discover that I'm using "Seasons" skin.  It's still somewhat confusing but at least I narrowed it down.
