Feeding Help / Delay?

Hi all,
I've been running PiAware for a while and came across this exchange and wanted to feed data. I've followed the instructions for SSH since I didn't want to harm anything with my exisitng PiAware feed, I got a success message but I'm not seeing my data in the global feed. I found a /logs/ folder in my installation folder but it's empty, I tried running the MLAT maintenance script and it said I was already connected, so seems good? I also see the outbound connection alive in netstat.

Can anyone point towards a debugging step, or does it just take some time for a new feeder to integrate?

 

Did you use a custom ADSBexchange port? What's you Pi name - can you find yourself in the sync matrix?

We have a custom image that is piaware based. Easier than using setup script and more reliable.

Save your piaware-config.txt

DON'T JUST COPY FILE OVER AND OVERWRITE. YOU NEED ADSBEXCHANGE.COM SPECIFIC STUFF IN THERE.

EDIT IT PLEASE.

Piaware custom ADSBexchange image has ADSBexchange specific stuff at the end of the piaware-config.txt

Copy your config items over from old piaware-config.txt and fill out the appropriate adsbexchange fields. Boot and it should work.

ALWAYS BACK UP YOUR piaware-config.txt

Example of adsbexchange specific items is here.

Thanks for feeding!

 

Thanks for this - my pi name is Mattryyc-01 - I am showing up in the synchronization matrix, but I was looking in the Custom Feed dropdown filter list. If I'm in the syncronization matrix can I assume that means I'm feeding data?
