      • I'm trying to run the new fr24feed software with the following configuration: feeding server is pulling SBS1 data over TCP from port 30003 on a remote device that is running antirez's original dump1090 (i.e. https://github.com/antirez/dump1090#port-30003)

        Up until now I was running the legacy client using fr24feed_x64_241 --fr24key=abcd --bs-ip=example.com --bs-port=30003 (where example.com is the IP of the device running dump1090)

        What is the equivalent of this on the new client? I can't seem to find any configuration that works, and the lack of docs isn't helping :/

        • If the hosting device is running dump1090, the client (Im assuming you are talking running on a separate windows PC here? - why not run it on the Pi too?) needs to use the raw out (avrtcp) of dump1090 from port 30002

          • Ah! Success with the following command line:

            fr24feed --fr24key=abcd --host=example.com:30002 --receiver=avr-tcp

            Just as some background on my setup, I'm running dump1090 on a very lightweight OpenWRT device (https://blog.y3xz.com/blog/2014/04/2...dar24-dot-com/) so there's currently no way for me to run the FR24 client on the same device, I have to run it off another host and pull the data over TCP.

            Thanks for the help!

            • Hi all!

              I've installed the fr24feeder on my Paspbery Pi 2 B.
              Configuration etc is done

              I see no errors but with "sudo service fr24feed status" I get the follwoing output:
              pi@rpphg ~ $ sudo service fr24feed status

              It seem's that there's something wrong or missing.
              Any ideas?

              thanks!

              • Is there a non Debian *.tgz available anywhere? On the feed page I can only find a link to the old 1.0.13 version.

                  • Hi all!

                    The feed overview in my account shows an update: #232
                    How can I update my PI?

                    thanks

                        • Hi all!

                          I got a strange issue.
                          After ~1day no planes are seen.

                          The fr24 service restarts by cron every night, but this does not help.
                          A complete reboot of my PI fixes the problem.

                          Any ideas how to debug this?

                          It suddenly "stops":

                          • Hello,

                            a couple of day's before MLAT works BUT Now following is seen if reading out the monitor.txt

                            last_rx_connect_time_s="2015-12-11 17:14:49"
                            local_tods="24654"
                            mlat-ok="NOT-PERMITTED"
                            mlat-started="FINISHED"
                            mlat_problem="mlat-disabled"

                            have done nothing !

                            then i made the reconfigure procceed with mlat "yes" = always the same message
                            Any Idea ??

                            thx any information

                              Volunteer MLAT was temporarily disabled for technical reasons, it will be enabled back as soon as possible.
