I have running a LoRa Gateway and would like to setup the feeder on this Pi. As I read, the script can be used if I want to install the tar1090-feeder on a Pi that is already feeding a commercial website. Well, my LoRa-Gateway of course has no dump1090 or similar running. So my question is: Will the script install all necessary packages too? Or do I have to install dump1090 by myself and then use the install script to get the rest?
https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-wiki/wiki/Raspbian-Lite:-ADS-B-receiver So i guess LoRa is not what you want for the uplink right? Because that's insufficient bandwidth.
Yeah see the link i posted please. Obviously you can disregard the the info about installing Raspbian.
When I try to run the 978 script, after "Reading state information... Done" the next line is "E: Unable to locate package libncurses5-dev" and then the install ends. Thoughts?
Try this: sudo apt update Then run the script again. If it doesn't help then you have an unusual setup, may i ask what system it is, which Rasbpian? If you don't know, this command will give some clues: cat /etc/os-release
Raspbian ... PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch)" NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="9" VERSION="9 (stretch)" ID=raspbian ID_LIKE=debian HOME_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/" SUPPORT_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianForums" BUG_REPORT_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianBugs" I tried uninstalling the adsbx feeder, stats, and 978 and then re-ran the adsbx feeder install but now I get the frown face so something maybe corrupted on my SD card.
That might well be the case. Here some tips for the rebuild: https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-wiki/wiki/Raspbian-Lite:-ADS-B-receiver
Thanks - that link will be helpful. It will be a 1090+978 setup and I only want to feed adsbx + FA and I also want RealVNC remote access so I need the Raspi GUI. Does Raspbian Lite have a GUI?
No it does not, use another Raspbian image then. Really SSH is sufficient, try and use MobaXterm / Putty.
The box will be in another city - I thought Putty only works on a local network. Port-forwarding on the remote router isn't an option so I've been using RealVNC - does MobaXterm do the same thing as RealVNC?
Try zerotier, @wiedehopf is not big fan of this software but it works (zerotier is kind of VPN). With ZT you can use SSH or VNC, everything will be in your local private network.
If I follow this guide, will there still be the 2 FA aircraft.json files (1090+978)? I have a Golang program that reads these files to control a PTZ camera that tracks aircraft in the landing pattern. If the aircraft.json files will be formatted differently, I may need to stick with the FA initial install and then feed adsbx.
That's fine, we don't mind. 978 needs more than that guide, you'll also have to look at: https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-w...-fa-and-feeding-adsbexchange-with-UAT-traffic And yes that would have boths jsons.
The rebuild is running but the FA site does not show the 978 UAT feed. The adsbx myip is showing 2 beast.front and 1 mlat.front so I think adsbx is getting both 1090 & 978. Any suggestions on how to fix the 978 feed to FA?
Use piaware-config to tell piaware to use 978 data. There are some threads over at their forum, i'd have to search myself, so i leave that to you.
