Help Setting Up Flightradar24 Software

[wildthing01]

Many thanks to all here in the forum.

Now my Raspberry is feeding.

[wiedehopf]

Don't type start, type restart!

sudo systemctl restart fr24feed

Anyway you can also reboot the RPi.

Also consider upgrading dump1090, fr24 is by default using a very old version.

Hello,

The feeding software now seems to be fully configured
Except for a few minor misunderstandings.
How do I get the software to feed.
with the command:
sudo service fr24feed start
Do not start feeding?
Can someone help me please? or is it enough if I restart the Raspberry?

Many thanks in advance for your reply

Leave the prompt for the sharing key empty.

You will then get a new sharing key.
Old sharing keys often cause problems.

The system tells me that my email address is wrong. Earlier on the Windows feeding software I logged in with the same email address.
What am I doing wrong?
I'm sorry for the questions to the forum.

After running the signup, you'll need to restart fr24:

sudo systemctl restart fr24feed

I suspect you'll have to look up how to use putty/ssh, it is described here:

Hello everybody,

many thanks for the help. I downloaded the software from Fligthradar24. The feeding software seems to work, but the software does not feed the data into the internet
My question: What am I doing wrong? Are the parameters / entries not entered correctly? (see attached photo)
What am I doing wrong. Can someone help me get the feeding software to work?

sudo fr24feed --signup

Re-enter same details as before.

Which OS you have installed?

PI24 image downloaded from https://www.flightradar24.com/build-your-own

OR

Raspbian image downloaded from https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/

Hello everybody,

I've tried so hard to set up the FR24 software for feeding, but I can not get it to work. Can someone help me with the installation of the FR24 software on my Rasberry Pi 2? The software I have already copied to an SD card and the software also starts. The DVBT stick is also recognized. I do not know where to enter my access data?

Many Thanks
Nils

I have to admit my hardest time was ssh into the Pi shell. I cannot express how important to type exactly and watch your spaces

Problem solved.

As per Nisbo's posting on the PP thread I changed the following:

In set up I said no to the questions about raw data and base station.

I added --net to the dump1090 arguments

In ADSBscope I choose Port 30002 for RDC (nothing new there)
and what made it work was selection Beast as the decoder instead of the obvious dongal choice.

I have no idea what any of this means or why it now works but I am probably too old to learn.

Thanks for the help,

Jack

--net that worked for me too, Thanks alot !!!
