Hi, This was the subject of an earlier post which has been closed but which did not offer a solution to this particular problem. I have downloaded the ADSB Exchange image and loaded it onto the micro sd card. When the RPi3 is started, many text lines scroll up the screen and then a debian8 log on screen appears. If I look at the URL for the RPi3, I get the message that Piaware is not running. Unsurprisingly, if I try to follow the Flightaware steps to claim the receiver, it tells me that a receiver cannot be found. However, if I load the standard Flightaware image onto the micro SD card and then start the RPi3, I get a Piaware welcome screen and data from Piaware feeds correctly into Flightaware. It seems that there is a problem with the ADSB Exchange image. I know that there are other ways to achieve the end result but I have never seen a Rasberry Pi until today and have zero knowledge about how to program it. According to the "How to feed" section of this website, all that should be necessary is to substitute the standard Flightaware image with the ADSB Exchange image during the set up process. I would be grateful for any advice. Thank you.
Hi ADSBexchange image is based on old Piaware v3.1.0. SSH to your Pi and try this: Code: sudo apt-get -y update sudo apt-get -y upgrade This should update Piaware version to 3.5.1 Reboot your Pi and try to claim receiver.
Hi, Unfortunately that didn't fix the problem. At the end of the upgrade I still had the problem that Piaware was not running. I reloaded the Flightaware standard image and then executed the scripted setup: - On the face of it that appeared to work. Checking the activity log I can see that Piaware is continually contacting both Flightaware and ADSB Exchange. However, while many messages are successfully being sent to Flightaware, the log shows the following: - then after 1 minute It would seem that the messages being sent to Flightaware are NOT being shared with ADSB Exchange. Any further suggestions would be very welcome as I have no idea how to resolve this issue.
Hi Are there any other adsbexchange feeders in your neighborhood? Flightaware has much better coverage so you can sync with FA feeders but not with ADSBX feeders. Which region are you? And what is your username for ADSBX mlat?
Hi, ADSB mlat user name is Tiga1050, location south of Cambridge. There are no other feeders close to me. I’ve set up this RPi3 / Prostick combination with the sole purpose of feeding data to ADSB Exchange to contribute to the data quantity / quality. I have no special interest in the Flightaware aspect. My Piaware installation is contacting both Flightaware and ADSB Exchange but is sending my local data only to Flightaware, which rather defeats the objective. I should really like to resolve the problem with my local installation and be able to feed my local data to ADSB Exchange.
Hi, I assume this is Cambridge UK rather than Cambridge (which state?) in US . It looks that this is same kind of problem as described in other thread started by brains-lans https://www.adsbexchange.com/forum/threads/mlat-feeding-noob-after-guidance.617690/unread
