fr24feed failed to synchronise time

[balt]

it looks like fr24feed is very unhappy about being unable to synchronise time. How do I tell it which NTP server to use?

It's hard coded. But If you also see this under fr24feed-status

FR24feed Core running. Possible Ping or in-use USB Issue:
[ ok ] FR24 Feeder/Decoder Process: running.
[ ok ] FR24 Stats Timestamp: 2018-01-24 09:15:30.
[ ok ] FR24 Link: connected [UDP].
[ ok ] FR24 Radar:
[ ok ] FR24 Tracked AC:.
[FAIL] Receiver: down ... failed!
[FAIL] FR24 MLAT: not running ... failed!

While it appears to work fine, And are on Stretch/Jessie.. try the ping fix and restart. It will log as time sync failure from ping lookup

sudo chmod 4755 /bin/ping

I don't have fr24feed-status. The only package I could get to run is the precompiled binary fr24feed_1.0.18-5_amd64.tgz.

What source should I be installing from on Ubuntu 16.04LTS? Important that no libusb etc. get overwritten, I need the versions to remain exactly as they are - fr24feed should simply connect to the dump1090 port and do its thing, that's nothing more than store and forward.

There's a manual install (not the bash script) that I Beleive should be ok.

And just the debian engine.

I think someone a week ago or so was doing similar to you with similar full Linux workaround
