        If you HAD dump1090 installed on its own before update or changed feed type to 'DVBT' and then restarted, then that is why. It force installs its own copy and changes settings to start it again (when it already is) so fails

        Change feed type to BeastTCP:30005/AVRTCP:30002 and see if connects

        Else run the normal 'status checks' commands to see what is running on a fresh start and adjust accordingly

        • Thank you, but i have a new problem.

          When i will use ssh and use the Setup wizzard fr24feed --singup i have the follow error:

          Validating email/location information...[e]Could not connect to feed.flightradar24.com, errno: 101
          Got no response or empty response from the server

          The Sharing Key and Email are correctly, Dump1090 ( v1.15~dev) works fine.

            • If you hadnt worked it out my the 3 other new or resurrected threads. There's an obvious issue
              Sit back and let it go till they officially acknowledge

                • Just to let you know. Had a look. Seems to be ipv6 related. Disabled ipv6 and all connected. Something went wrong on DNS lookup for a PTR.

                  not had change to dig into further, but maybe same for all.

                  I disabled ipv6 with this command if you want to try

                  sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1

                  Comment


                  • Yup ran the disable and am now up and running

                    Comment


                    • Unfortunately it is more than that I think. I disabled ipv6 without any change.
                      Look at this thread: https://forum.flightradar24.com/thre...385#post106385

                      • Same here in Canada.

                        Last night I made a fresh install (Raspbian Stretch + dump1090-mutability v1.15~dev + fr24feed). The fr24feed-status showed feed failure.
                        [FAIL] FR24 Link: unknown ... failed!

                        Thanks to tech007 for his post #24 and post #893, I fixed it by following command given by him.

                        Code:
                        sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1

                          • FYI, I too have run into connection issues, which might be related to IPv6, which is strange as I have a full IPv6-enabled network at home, and the connection would work the same via IPv4 or IPv6. Go figure.

                            Nonetheless, it was clear that the issue was related to IPv6 when I decided to create a simple hack which would force IPv4-only connections, of a very different kind than blocking completely IPv6 (which I DON'T want to do!) and neither changing the configuration of the getaddrinfo config file /etc/gai.conf.

                            The hack consists of fixing the IP address of the initial connection to feed.flightradar24.com and its CloudFlare counterpart to a fixed IPv4 address, which will take precedence over a DNS-resolved IP address.

                            Here is what I added in /etc/hosts:

                            # hack to fix the IPv6 issue with feed.flightradar24.com.cdn.cloudflare.net (104.20.0.101) - solved on 2018-08-25

                            104.20.0.101 feed.flightradar24.com
                            104.20.0.101 feed.flightradar24.com.cdn.cloudflare.net


                            Obviously I now have a fixed IP address and not a dynamic one out of a pool, and if FR24 someday decides to change the IP address of the feed, I will need to modify it by hand.

                            By doing this I was able to make my newly refreshed RasPi 3, which used to run Jessie and now runs Stretch, work again after the dist-upgrade which crippled fr24feed.

                            Bye, Luca

                            • Anyone managed to stop the latest rendition auto update check unless you manually do.

                              Something seems to kill internal webserver and clients connections at about midnight UTC every couple of days for me.

                              Made the fr24feed_updater.sh no execution as located elsewhere but something still is.

                              • Happy to reply to myself on this thread which just was made active again, albeit on another topic, with an update on my workaround regarding IPv6.

                                I went back to my configuration, which I had changed back in August 2018, and tested again IPv6 which right now seems to be working fine, so I removed the /etc/hosts workaround and now my machine is happily feeding FR24 over IPv6.

                                Not sure about the problem raised by @Oblivian, I am not seeing that kind of behaviour.
