How did you install weewx - setup.py method or apt method?

I have installed Weewx on a Raspberry Pi 4 and get the message on the image above. It weems to be directing the command to the wrong directory.

Weewx is installed in  /etc/weewx so cannot be found.

How do I change the startup command to the correct directory.

Is there a way to view the working application on the local pc to test it before uploading to my ftp.

What files do I need to put on the ftp to display it.

Thanks.

If you installed using apt-get, then your weewx.conf will be in /etc/weewx.

Try sudo weewxd /etc/weewx/weewx.conf
