Windows Setup/Feed Migration (virtualVM) Assistance

[wiedehopf]

You got the wrong binary for your architecture.

[abcd567]

Sems linux binary "fr24feed" is missing.or corrupted, or mismatching with you machines architecture.

Either
(1) the tarball "fr24feed_1.0.24-5_amd64.tgz" did not get downloaded

OR
(2) the tarball downloaded, but extrsction of binary "fr24feed" failed

OR
(3) the linux binary "fr24feed" did not get copied to folder /usr/bin/


Please post output of following cimmands to reveal what is missing

Check binary

ls /usr/share/fr24  

ls /usr/bin/fr24feed

Check architecture of you machine/os

dpkg --print-architecture  

dpkg --print-foreign-architectures

[Oldertarl]

I guess the mismatch break the code.
Now I am not at all familiar with the difference between amd64 and i386
is that to be corrected on the linux build or in the way to install it fr24feed?

pi@FlightHost:~$ dpkg --print-architecture
i386
pi@FlightHost:~$ ls /usr/share/fr24
fr24feed_1.0.24-5_amd64.tgz fr24feed_amd64
pi@FlightHost:~$ ls /usr/bin/fr24feed
/usr/bin/fr24feed
pi@FlightHost:~$

EDIT
2.1.2. CPU Support
Both AMD64 and Intel 64 processors are supported.

They clearly got me on the wrong foot
Starting from scratch ;-)

[abcd567]

Oldertarl:

STEP-1:
Remove amd64 package and binary

sudo rm /usr/share/fr24/fr24feed_1.0.24-5_amd64.tgz  

sudo rm -rf /usr/share/fr24/fr24feed_amd64  

sudo rm /usr/bin/fr24feed

STEP-2:
Download, extract, and copy to folder /usr/bin/ the i386 binary

sudo wget -O /usr/share/fr24/fr24feed_1.0.25-3_i386.tgz "https://repo-feed.flightradar24.com/linux_x86_binaries/fr24feed_1.0.25-3_i386.tgz"  

sudo tar xvzf /usr/share/fr24/fr24feed_1.0.25-3_i386.tgz -C /usr/share/fr24  

​​​​sudo cp /usr/share/fr24/fr24feed_i386/fr24feed /usr/bin/

Restart fr24feed

sudo systemctl restart fr24feed

.

Was away for the weekend, but was able to install the correct linux version for the listed scripts
Also installed the fr24feed and dump1090-fa, including graphs1090 with all options I hade before
I am a very happy man as we speak!

Almost coming to my last topic on my list for this first feeder, getting the antenna to the best possible position, as 50nM is just poor knowing where I live (north of Luxembourg)

Thanks a million for the assistance !

[Oldertarl]

When looking at graphs1090 the range is not showing any data
Browsing the forums I found that the location is required in dump1090
When adding the location in DECODER_OPTIONS="--max-range 360 --lat 50.0 --lon 6.0" , removing the --fix
The service restarts without issues and shows the range data in the graphs
Is there a special reason this is set to --fix rather than adding the lat and lon that I am missing in oversight?

[abcd567]

Is there a special reason this is set to --fix rather than adding the lat and lon that I am missing in oversight?

The receiver location is determined by adding arguments --lat xxxx --lon yyyy.

The parameter --fix has nothing to do with the location of receiver. It does error correction on some messages which have been damaged by noise in transit, which would otherwise be discarded. The downside of this is that it increases the chances that badly damaged messages could be wrongly “corrected”, producing bad data.

Usually these bad messages are then filtered out by subsequent processing (this is where the “single tracks” statistic comes from).

[Oldertarl]

Alright all clear
placed --fix back in the options
now project "bring the antenna outside" has to start as the 50nM is just not doing the trick for me

I have problem to install fr24feed on Linux in VM on windows 7. as show on step 2 of this guide:

https://forum.flightradar24.com/foru...indows-feeder=

I enter this code:


sudo dpkg-buildpackage -b


but I got this error:

"debian/rules build sub process returned exit status 2"

as show on picture:

what can I do to solve this error?

No need to build dump1090-mutability from siurce code as given in the guide. Now it is available in repository. Installed by following command:

sudo apt install dump1090-mutability  

sudo usermod -a -G plugdev dump1090  

sudo systemctl restart dump1090-mutability

To set your latitude, longitude give following command. Accept all other default settings by pressing Enter key.

When asked address to bind, remove default value "127.0.0.1" to make it blank, then press Enter key.

sudo dpkg-reconfigure dump1090-mutability

Dear abcd567

arash:

You have not installed fr24feed, or is broken install.

First purge it.

sudo dpkg --purge fr24feed

Now make a fresh install

wget https://repo-feed.flightradar24.com/linux_x86_64_binaries/fr24feed_1.0.25-3_amd64.deb

sudo dpkg -i fr24feed_1.0.25-3_amd64.deb

CONFIGURE

CASE (a): If you have a sharing key:

sudo nano /etc/fr24feed.ini

Above command will open a file with following entries

bs=yes
raw=yes
mlat="yes"
mlat-without-gps="yes"

Add following lines to the file fr24feed.ini (replace xxxxxxxxxxx by your actual sharing key).

receiver="beast-tcp"
host="127.0.0.1:30005"
fr24key="xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Save file (Ctrl+o) and close (Ctrl+x)

Restart fr24feed

sudo systemctl restart fr24feed

Wait for few minutes, then check status

fr24feed-status

CASE (b): If you do NOT have a sharing key:
signup using following command and provide your details such as email, latitude, longitude etc

sudo fr24feed --signup
sudo systemctl restart fr24feed

Wait for fe minutes, then check status

fr24feed-status

(1) Why are you quoting my entire post in your replies? No need to do this. It makes reading posts unnecessary lengthy and difficult. Please edit your posts and remove the quoted part.

(2) What are the output of following 3 commands

cat /etc/os-release

apt policy fr24feed.

uname -a
