No, I never came across a scroll bar in drop-down menu.
Try to clear browser cache (Ctrl+Shift+Delete), then reload browser (Ctrl+F5)

Just done a full re-install and it has all gone well but I've ended up with a scroll bar next to the gain setting on the map.
Functionally it makes no difference and I could just live with it but I don't know how I've ended up getting it.
I could simply copy a gmap.html from another pi which is correct but I just wondered if you had come across this before.

Thank you for this brilliant guide, Got my Pi up and running in 2 hours providing data to FR24, Flightaware & Planefinder. Brillant work all of you :-)

sudo: journalctrl: command not found

Sorry, there was a typo in the command I posted. It had an ectra r. The correct spelling is journalctl, and not journalctrl.

arahata:

I have posted this "howto" in flightaware forum. You can use it.

Better use this command, the last 20 lines or so are most often sufficient to figure out the issue.

sudo journalctl --no-pager -u piaware

(ctrl is typo, piaware needs to come after the u, so -eu if anything, but i prefer --no-pager to -e)

Thank you for your quick response. Running the command with parameters in your post, this is returned:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo journalctl --no-pager -u piaware

I do apologize if I missed anything, but now that I'm checking my FlightAware account by browsing the link I see for the first time from above log (in green), it seems all is working fine!

I noticed it seems there are two sites associated with my FA account, the one that was not (and is still not) working is the one shown by default on my account. Is it something I should do to delete that site from my RBPi?

Thank you!

Please issue this command and post its output

sudo journalctrl -ue piaware

Thanks for your quick response. Here is what returns.


pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo journalctrl -ue piaware

sudo: journalctrl: command not found


However, another command wiedehopf suggested works. I'm new to using the forum too. I'll respond to his post shortly showing the results.

Thanks Captain

I'm a little confused about which step to go after running
METHOD-1: (B) RPi 4 with Raspbian BUSTER

First do following:

(B) RPi 4 with Raspbian BUSTER

Package Install of dump1090-mutability (EB_VERSION) from repository.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lighttpd
sudo apt-get install dump1090-mutability
sudo lighty-enable-mod dump1090

Next reconfigure

STEP (6): DUMP1090-MUTABILITY POST INSTALLATION CONFIGURATION

sudo dpkg-reconfigure dump1090-mutability​​​​​​

Next BUG FIX

sudo usermod -a -G plugdev dump1090
sudo systemctl restart dump1090-mutability​​​​​​

Hi - I'm new to the forum and feeding.

I have a working setup that's already feeding fr24 and radarbox: RPi clean image, with dump1090-mutability_1.15~dev. I followed the instructions by abcd567 located here to bring up my ADSB feeding. Thank you abcd567!

However, STEP (11): INSTALLATION OF FLIGHTAWARE DATA FEEDER:
http://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/install (STEP 2 ONLY) does not work fine. After running commands in STEP 2 there (run commands for manual and auto-update too), I was able to claim but it seems no data is being exchanged.


This is what I see when manually running piaware:

One quick comment on the warning in blue, here is my settings from fr24:

My first guess was maybe piaware is looking for dump1090-fa, but not sure.

Any help is much appreciated. Thank you!
