This evening I have done a complete update on my raspberry PI.

I have tracked a similar fault on my Pi, mine has shut down at 07:00 for 2 days now, the fault seems to be related to the Cron job that runs each day to check for updates: /usr/lib/fr24/fr24feed_updater.sh the feeder fails to restart after this has run.
Any comments from support please?

Same here. For three days in a row now.

[Guest]

can you please post what you see in /var/log/fr24feed.log and /var/log/messages around that time?

Same issue with my fr24feed, for 3 days in a row it stops at 10:00am UTC sharp. No other service in my RPI stops, LiveATC and FlightAware continue running...

[Olga]

Thanks for your reports. I forwarded that info to our developers team and they will take a look on it.

I also have the same issue, third day in a row today, at 06:00 UTC. I don't have a cron running at that time that could cause this issue.
When it happens, the fr24feed service is still running, but gives an error (stupid me, I didn't copy the error...), I just stop the service and start again, and everything is then OK.
But now my stats are ruined :-(

The only message I have around that time in /var/log/messages (in fact the only messages I have in /var/log/messages, apart from a whole slew of messages associated with a manual reboot on Dec 16) is this:

06:25:04 raspberrypi rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="5.8.11" x-pid="1827" x-info="(link removed due to forum posting restrictions - the link is the default one for rsyslog messages...)"] rsyslogd was HUPed

Unfortunately, I no longer have the fr24feed log for that period...

My station is still 24/7 because I have written a script to check fr24feed every 5 minutes.

It's provided that fr24feed will be terminated at the morning after the releasing of 1.0.16-7 according to the log generated by script.

fr24feed is down at Tue 15 Dec 07:05:01 HKT 2015, restarting...
fr24feed is down at Wed 16 Dec 07:05:01 HKT 2015, restarting...

Most likely there is something wrong with auto-update script, that is scheduled to run at 07:00 local time (RPi system timezone).

Just double checked it on Raspbian OS and it works fine, so that may be related to some other OS or different configurations.

Could you please run this update script:

sudo /usr/lib/fr24/fr24feed_updater.sh

and post the output?

[henkverhaar]

My Pi runs on Raspbian "under" NOOBS. Will run the update script. I assume that I have to manually shutdown the feeder (service) before running the script, right?

[henkverhaar]

bot bait... sorry, cannot post the output due do not having more than 4 posts already - this one should up my post count enough to be able to do that...

[henkverhaar]

Anyway, here's the output (with the feeder shut down manually):
