Linux feeder software for Flightradar24 (Old software)

[Foxconn11]

There's now a new build available (241) in the first post that should resolve the incorrect coordinates reported issue as well as eliminate the need of exporting FR24AUTHIP for the static build. Please report any issues here.

Thanks for the info. Would try it tonight. Hopes it works. Greetings Foxconn11

Works for me (static version).
Now there is no "Segmentation fault" when I'm starting feeder with FR24 key only in parameters.
Thanks.

Finally investigated and partially solved.

No luck with trying to make fr24feed_arm-le_233 (w/o s) work.

And here is the result for fr24feed_arm-le_233s:
The issue was with my internet gateway. I'm using squid (transparent mode) + HAVP(clamav) + iptables redirect. So I've excluded HAVP - no result.
Then I've disabled NAT and iptables redirect. Pointed to my proxy with export http_proxy=.... Feeder continued to connect w/o using proxy, ignoring http_proxy variable.
Then NAT was enabled, iptables redirect rule was edited to exclude ODROID IP. So ODROID box got access to internet using NAT - finally ok. Workaround, but it works.

But I've got interesting bug with command line parameters.
When I'm running feeder w/o "--bs-ip=127.0.0.1 --bs-port=30003" I'm getting segmentation fault. (localhost is declared and can be looked up, ping, etc.)

Already online & feeding data

Hi Demetr,
use statically linked version of feeder for ARM architecture: fr24feed_arm-le_233s.tgz with this cmd: "FR24AUTHIP=83.140.247.20 ./fr24feed_arm-le_233s --fr24key=YOUR_SHARING_KEY". And everything will be fine!

[Demetr]

Hi HermanZA
I've mentioned before that it's ARM architecture board (please see uname above). So it wouldn't solve the issue.
Anyway I've followed your advice:

root@odroid:~/fr24feed# ./fr24feed_x86_233 --fr24key=<deleted> --bs-ip=127.0.0.1 --bs-port=30003
-bash: ./fr24feed_x86_233: cannot execute binary file

root@odroid:~/fr24feed# ./fr24feed_x64_233 --fr24key=<deleted> --bs-ip=127.0.0.1 --bs-port=30003
-bash: ./fr24feed_x64_233: cannot execute binary file

[HermanZA]

Hi Demetr,

As PeterHR said, you should be using the x86 or x64 version of the feeder and then to start it all up, the line should read (I don't specify source and port):

export FR24AUTHIP=83.140.247.20
./fr24feed_x86_233 --fr24key=[your own key] > /tmp/fr24feed.log &

Can be obtained on this page: http://forum.flightradar24.com/threa...-Flightradar24

There is a newer version of the feeder out however, but presumably still in testing phase with the FR24 techies.

[Demetr]

Thanks peterhr.
Actually I've done everything with rtl-sdr and dump1090 before my previous post. Everything is up and running. The problem is with running FR feeder only.
Anyway awesome manual for beginners!

[peterhr]

have a look at post 8 in this thread http://forum.flightradar24.com/threa...e-to-feed-FR24

The Pi is an arm based machine, wheezy & Xubuntu are both based on Debian Linux.

HermanZA has built a an Ubuntu 12.04 feeder on an old PC using those instructions (with x86 feed software version) using those instructions ... and they did work for the BeagleBone Black too

Nice looking machine

I'm trying to feed FR24 on such device: ODROID-U3 (ARM) with XUbuntu 13.10 onboard. I downloaded both bins for ARM. And I'm getting errors running both of them. I'm not a PRO in Linux.
Some tech info:

Hello Mike
sorry if this question has been dealt with previously on the forum. How can I confirm that the fr24 feeder software running on my raspberry pi is actually sending data to fr24?
Thanks.
