I am trying to get some weather data out of weewx. In the past I have used this scheme:

Created a new template called temp.txt.tmpl in the etc/weewx/skins/Standard directory. It's only content is: $current.outTemp

In the skin.conf file under [CheetahGenerator] tucked in under [[ToDate]] I added:

[[[temp.txt]]]

# Report that makes current outTemp available to other program

encoding = strict_ascii

template = temp.txt.tmpl

From that I expected to see the data in /var/www/html/weewx/temp.txt

In the past this has worked... but not now?

I recently replaced my weather station with a Vantage and fresh install of Buster, weewx on a Rbpi3+ It all work well right out of the box! Except for the above mentioned issue.

Thanks for any insight!!!

You are running the Seasons skin, but putting the [[[temp.txt]]] entry under the Standard skin.
