PI24: Replace dump1090 v1.14 -> pre-build package of dump1090 v1.15

[abcd567]

are there many advantages to upgrading to fa from v1.15?

(1) The engine (decoder) in both mutability ver 1.15 and fa version are almost same, so no appreciable/noticeable difference in performance
(2) Appearance of the map in fa version is modern, and is liked by lot of people because of this.

[Graeme2812]

Apologies if this has already been asked elsewhere (I've been out of the loop for some time) but are there many advantages to upgrading to fa from v1.15?

Forum software auto-moderates useful links even to fr24 and console logs.

Doesn't check signature for links.

Sounds like an AI solution!

The source code is still available, only a slightly modified command to clone/download it has to be used now.

In STEP-2, use this command to download the source code:

## As you have already downloaded empty archieved folder, delete it first
sudo rm -rf dump1090

## Now download the source code by this command:
git clone -b "unmaintained" https://github.com/mutability/dump1090

The folder dump1090 will now have following:

COPYING             dump1090.c
LICENSE             dump1090.h
Makefile            faup1090.c
README-dump1090.md  icao_filter.c
README-json.md      icao_filter.h
README.md           interactive.c
anet.c              mode_ac.c
anet.h              mode_s.c
compat              net_io.c
convert.c           net_io.h
convert.h           public_html
cpr.c               stats.c
cpr.h               stats.h
cprtests.c          tools
crc.c               track.c
crc.h               track.h
debian              util.c
demod_2400.c        util.h
demod_2400.h        view1090.c

Cool.
So, in principle I can revert to 1.14 if I want my local plots back

....may be thinking about upgrading my OS and reinstall the new stuff from scratch.

That is better, as you have an OS (Jessie) which is now two steps behind the current OS Buster. Also most likely you have an old version of fr24feed.

I will suggest to leave the current microSD card as is, and try new install on another microSD card. This way if you face some problem in fresh install you can fall back on old card.

[wiedehopf]

what's the problem with the current setup?

You can always switch to dump1090-fa: https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-sc...for-dump1090fa

Then the dump1090 will run independently of fr24feed.
You can also change the fr24feed configuration to beast 30005 and then sudo apt purge dump1090-mutability
If you then install it again, i believe it will run on it's own if you configure it correctly with sudo dpkg-reconfigure dump1090-mutability

But if you ask me, just use dump1090-fa, with the bundle you can have the old same map and it works nicely.

The script/method in this thread is a "replacement" script/method.
It replaces the existing ver1.14 by ver1.15~dev without changing any configuration setting.
Since v1.14 uses setting receiver=DVB-T, the replacement ver1.15~dev also uses same setting.

Please see clarification below regarding my statement "If you select "Receiver: DVBT", the FR24 feeder will replace dump1090-mutability ver 1.15~dev by v1.14. This will cause map and graphs to fail."

The above statement is valid only for the case when:
(1) ver1.15~dev is installed independently (and not to replace an existing v1.14).
AND
(2) ver1.15~dev is installed before installing, setting up, and running fr24feed

Oh I see
So there is nothing I can do right now except may be thinking about upgrading my OS and reinstall the new stuff from scratch.

Thanks again
Mark

Glad to know that the pre-built package of ver1.15~dev could be successfully installed on Orangepi/Jessie and is working OK.

Actually I´m quite satisfied but I´m puzzled by one thing.
Since I have V1.15 I followed your instructions to set the receiver like this:

-> If configuring in browser at http ://<ip-of-pi>:8754/settings.html
Receiver: ModeS Beast (TCP)
Host/IP: 127.0.0.1:30005

I did it and there is no way of feeding FR24
So I restored the old DVBT set-up and actually it is working fine.

I remember your statement "If you select "Receiver: DVBT", the FR24 feeder will replace dump1090-mutability ver 1.15~dev by v1.14. This will cause map and graphs to fail."

and in fact, my graphs are failing right now but when I check the installed version I have:

root@orangepipcplus:/etc# apt-cache policy dump1090-mutability

dump1090-mutability:
Installed: 1.15~dev
Candidate: 1.15~dev
Version table:
*** 1.15~dev 0


So there is still something weird going on but I´m feeding

Hi guys and thanks a lot for your efforts.
Really appreciated.
In the meantime I re-tried the Option 1 of the automatic script and apparently (don´ask me why) it could install V1.15 !

Glad to know that the pre-built package of ver1.15~dev could be successfully installed on Orangepi/Jessie and is working OK.

Just now checked. The pre-built package of dump1090-mutability very 1.14 is still available for download from github. The fr24feed & Pi24 are safe (for now at least)

This is what fr24feed does:

(1) Downloads pre-built package of very 1.14:

wget -O ~/dump1090-mutability_1.14_armhf.deb "https://github.com/mutability/dump1090/releases/download/v1.14/dump1090-mutability_1.14_armhf.deb"

(2) Installs downloaded package of very 1.14

sudo dpkg -i dump1090-mutability_1.14_armhf.deb

[abcd567]

Looks like all our guides need updating. He's archived the source 4 days ago to read only and removed files.

https://github.com/mutability/dump1090

I have just now updated the cloning command in the only thread which used it (How to Install dump1090-mutability_1.15~dev on RPi).

Interesting to see if fr24 now breaks

The fr24feed uses pre-built package of ver 1.14 from github. I think that package is not archieved and is still there. I will check shortly.

In fact I´m feeding data again and I double checked with:

apt-cache policy dump1090-mutability
dump1090-mutability:
Installed: 1.15~dev
Candidate: 1.15~dev
Version table:
*** 1.15~dev 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
root@orangepipcplus:~#

So far so good ?

Try this, not sure if it works on jessie but worth a try:
