Raspberry Pi type B + DVB-T Dongle to feed FR24

[Oblivian]

Hi all

Raspi seems to hang occassionally???!! Had to write a cron reboot schedule to keep it online 24/7

Anybody else have this problem? Also any foolproof way to remotely access the pi over the net?

Thanx

If you do not have a good power supply, invest in one. The USB puts a lot of load on the port and they disconnect if not powered

Even if you have a good power supply mine dump1090 stop working, raspberry is online but dump1090 is not running as desired, i checked on the monitor page i have, and the only way to make it work again is restarting raspberry.

YEs it happen to me, i dont know if is because the load or ram, im using a model B ( 512MB ram ) and im next to buy a 3 model, so i can compare if CPU and RAM do the difference.

can you share with me that cron?

also if someone need to host any kind of .iso or software i have enought space in my servers to do it for free. please PM me

EDIT:
for the remote access, normally you should enable port forwarding, and open many stuff at your home internet and router ( in case is in home)

but i find this site, and im going to test it.

Hi Dedicados

The cron would be

sudo su

crontab -e

This opens the cron file. Then type ur commands as u wish and save

thanks, my raspberry is online but is reported as offline in FRradar24/account.

maybe dump1090 stop working or fr24feed, i will try restarting dump1090 once a day.

well an update, with dump1090-mu is not needed to do anything, it actually send messages to stay online. works awesome.

Offline (not so)

"Offline" may possibly just mean that you haven't been feeding data for a while (some minutes; half an hour or so), but that may simply be because there are no nearby planes. Take a look at the "Last upload" information to see if your receiver is working or not. In my case, mine is frequently offline because of lack of nearby planes, and will toggle between "offline" and "online" status and back as soon as planes come and go. If that's the case, you have nothing to do or to worry about, everything is fine.

Hope it helps, best regards.

First post after searching for awhile, apologies for my not understanding...

I finally got my Pi up and running, and have received a key from FR24, along with the statement "please make sure to start sharing data within 3 days as otherwise your ID/KEY will be deleted."

That's what's tripping me up... how to I start sharing data???

Ensure you have received a code (looks like it) And login to the webpage with the same email/password entered when running the wizard to ensure you are showing online.

Ok, my account shows I'm offline, no uploads or recent statistics, but the map is centered on Memphis, where I am... Should I re-run the wizard to plug in my key, or is there a different way to do that?

I also tried to "activate" from the website, but when I did this, it gave me an error suggesting my email is already in use twice for the same signal... Any idea on this too?

Thanks for the help!

Have you tried settings on this page through your browser:

http: //<ip address of your RPi>:8754/

AND


http: //<ip address of your RPi>:8754/settings.html

Map location is saved from last view or IP lookup via google. Unrelated

If you already ran the wizard it should be present, and I suspect your setup is not actually connecting to the USB stick? correctly.

Suggest following some of the tips here...

For error "email already in use" or "invalid email", enter your email, sharing key and other details by this command:

sudo fr24feed --signup

After completing configuration by above command, and restarting the fr24feed (sudo service fr24feed restart), open your browser and type:

http://xxx.xxx.xx.xx:8754/settings.html

(replace xxx.xxx.xx.xx by Local IP address of your RPi)
Check your settings

If you go to:

http://xxx.xxx.xx.xx:8754

(replace xxx.xxx.xx.xx by Local IP address of your RPi)
it will show status

Hello, i set up my raspberry pi model B with a fresh installation of raspian jessie and fr24 feeder with automatic installation and a DVB-T dongle chip R820T2 RTL2832U SDR.

Aircraft Uploaded: 1
Receiver: dvbt, Connected
