    How to Install dump1090-fa and fr24feed on Fedora & RHEL

    How to Install dump1090-fa and fr24feed on Fedora & Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)

    Tested on:
    Fedora 31, x86_64
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8.1, x86_64


    STEP-1: Install dump1090-fa (see below)

    STEP-2: Install FR24 Data Feeder (Scroll down to post #2)

    STEP-3: Install Planefinder Data Feeder (Scroll down to post #3)


    STEP-1: Install dump1090-fa

    FEDORA - Dependencies & Tools
    Code:
    sudo dnf install git wget
sudo dnf install make cmake libusb-devel ncurses-devel


    RHEL- Dependencies & Tools
    Code:
    sudo dnf install git wget
sudo dnf install gcc-c++ make cmake libusbx-devel ncurses-devel

## In case of issues in building binaries, use following command to instal complete package of tools.
## sudo dnf groupinstall 'Development Tools'


    (2) Fedora & RHEL - Build & Install package "librtlsdr"
    This package is essential for building dump1090-fa linux binary in step (3)

    NOTE: The command starting with "sudo cmake ../" has 4 flags after it and is very long, and full command is not visible directly. Please scroll right to see and copy it in full.
    Code:
    cd ~/
git clone https://github.com/steve-m/librtlsdr.git
cd librtlsdr
sudo mkdir build && cd build
sudo cmake ../ -DINSTALL_UDEV_RULES=ON -DDETACH_KERNEL_DRIVER=ON -DLIB_INSTALL_DIR=/usr/lib64 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
sudo make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig


    (3) Fedora & RHEL - Build dump1090-fa linux binary from source code.
    Code:
    cd ~/
sudo git clone https://github.com/flightaware/dump1090.git dump1090-fa
cd dump1090-fa
sudo make BLADERF=no


    (4) Fedora & RHEL - Test the dump1090-fa Linux Binary
    Code:
    cd ~/dump1090-fa
sudo ./dump1090

Sat Jan 25 16:52:54 2020 EST dump1090-fa starting up.

    (5) Fedora & RHEL - Configure & enable systemd for dump1090-fa by copying necessary files from cloned source code.
    Code:
    sudo cp ~/dump1090-fa/dump1090 /usr/bin/dump1090-fa
sudo cp ~/dump1090-fa/debian/dump1090-fa.default /etc/default/dump1090-fa
sudo cp ~/dump1090-fa/debian/dump1090-fa.service /usr/lib/systemd/system/dump1090-fa.service

sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/dump1090-fa/
sudo cp ~/dump1090-fa/debian/start-dump1090-fa /usr/share/dump1090-fa/start-dump1090-fa
sudo cp -r ~/dump1090-fa/public_html /usr/share/dump1090-fa/html
sudo useradd --system dump1090

sudo systemctl enable dump1090-fa
sudo systemctl start dump1090-fa
sudo systemctl status dump1090-fa

## If status shows FAILED, then reboot the computer, and after reboot check status again
sudo reboot
sudo systemctl status dump1090-fa


    (6) Install lighttpd web server

    Fedora
    Code:
    sudo dnf install lighttpd


    RHEL
    Code:
    sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm  
sudo dnf install lighttpd


    (7) Fedora & RHEL - Copy necessary dump1090-fa integration & configuration file from source code.
    Code:
    sudo cp ~/dump1090-fa/debian/lighttpd/89-dump1090-fa.conf /etc/lighttpd/conf.d/89-dump1090-fa.conf
sudo chmod 666 /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
echo "server.modules += ( \"mod_alias\" )" >> /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
echo "include \"/etc/lighttpd/conf.d/89-dump1090-fa.conf\"" >> /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf

sudo sed -i 's/server.use-ipv6 = "enable"/server.use-ipv6 = "disable"/' /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf

sudo chmod 644 /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf

sudo systemctl enable lighttpd
sudo systemctl restart lighttpd


    (8) Fedora & RHEL - Configure SELinux to run permissive for httpd
    This will enable lighttpd to pull aircraft data from folder /var/run/dump1090-fa/:
    Code:
    sudo semanage permissive -a httpd_t


    (9) Fedora & RHEL - Configure Firewall to permit display of SkyView Map from LAN/internet

    Code:
    sudo firewall-cmd --add-service=http  
sudo firewall-cmd --runtime-to-permanent  
sudo firewall-cmd --reload

    (10) Reboot Computer

      How to Install Planefinder data feeder on Red Hat (RHEL) & Fedora x86_64

      NOTE:
      On RHEL and Fedora the "pfclient_4.1.1_i386.deb" package cannot be installed.
      We will therefore use linux binary tarball "pfclient_4.1.1_i386.tar.gz".
      Since the tarball does not contain any configuration, init, or service files, we will create all this manually.

      2.1- Prepare x86_64 OS to accept i386 linux binary.

      RHEL
      Code:
      sudo dnf install glibc.i686 libgcc.i686 libgcc.x86_64 audit.x86_64

      Fedora
      Code:
      sudo dnf install glibc.i686 glibc.x86_64 audit.x86_64

      2.2 - Download and uncompress tarball "pfclient_4.1.1_i386.tar.gz"
      Code:
      sudo dnf install wget

sudo mkdir /usr/share/pfclient
sudo wget -O /usr/share/pfclient/pfclient_4.1.1_i386.tar.gz "http://client.planefinder.net/pfclient_4.1.1_i386.tar.gz"
sudo tar zxvf /usr/share/pfclient/pfclient_4.1.1_i386.tar.gz -C /usr/share/pfclient/
sudo cp /usr/share/pfclient/pfclient /usr/bin/pfclient

      2.3 - create configuration file
      Code:
      sudo touch /etc/pfclient-config.json
sudo chmod 666 /etc/pfclient-config.json
sudo echo "{}" > /etc/pfclient-config.json

      2.4 - Setup systemd service for auto-start at boot, and for start, stop & status.
      2.4.1 - Create system user pfc to run the pfclient
      Code:
      sudo useradd --system pfc
      2.4.2 - Create a new blank file pfclient.service
      Code:
      sudo dnf install nano

sudo nano /lib/systemd/system/pfclient.service
      2.4.3 - In file pfclient.service, copy-paste following code:
      Code:
      [Unit]
Description=Planefinder Feeder
After=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=simple
SyslogIdentifier=pfclient
RuntimeDirectory=pfclient
RuntimeDirectoryMode=0755
User=pfc
PermissionsStartOnly=true
ExecStartPre=-/bin/mkdir -p /var/log/pfclient
ExecStartPre=-/bin/chown pfc /var/log/pfclient
ExecStart=/usr/bin/pfclient --config_path=/etc/pfclient-config.json --log_path=/var/log/pfclient $ 2>/var/log/pfclient/error.log
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=30

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
      Save file (Ctrl+o) and close file (Ctrl+x)

      2.5 - Enable the pfclient service by following command
      Code:
      sudo systemctl enable pfclient
sudo systemctl restart pfclient

sudo systemctl status pfclient
      2.6 - RHEL only: Configure firewall
      This is necessary to enable display of Planefinder Configuration and Map page at IP:30053 in browser of another computer on same LAN
      Code:
      sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=30053/tcp
firewall-cmd --runtime-to-permanent
sudo firewall-cmd --reload

##Give following command to see that port 30053 is included in the list
sudo firewall-cmd --list-all --zone=public
      2.7 - Configuring Planefinder Feeder:
      In RHEL or Fedora computer, go to page localhost:30053 (or to IP:30053 from another computer) and add your sharing key, latitude, longitude.

      2.8 Useful Commands:
      Code:
      sudo systemctl status pfclient
sudo systemctl restart pfclient
sudo systemctl stop pfclient
