Flghtaware 3.6.3

Yes I have

yes I have

 

Everything working good on flightaware useing image 3.6.3

 

And it's feeding ADSBx now?

 

Cheers James will have another go fingers crossed

 

TeamViewer would be handy

 

I just downloaded 3.6.3 from FlightAware website.

http://piaware.flightcdn.com/piaware-sd-card-3.6.3.img.zip

Burned it to SD using etcher.io and plugged it all in.

FA default login is:

pi
flightaware

Then over ssh I did

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

then installed git and ran the setup script

Code:

sudo apt-get install git
git clone https://github.com/adsbxchange/adsb-exchange.git
cd adsb-exchange
chmod +x setup.sh
sudo ./setup.sh

Then I rebooted .. netcat and mlat both started

I didn't try it without updating the Pi to latest first

My guess (based on initial reports) is that initial FA image has rc.local disabled. This may or may not have been intentional.

Beware Flight Aware has overridden Raspbian software repositories in 3.6.3, so they now control what software you can install and what is available version wise.


It is currently feeding customfeed AZ-Pi

Apparently Google will no longer give altitude for free.

You have to manually edit the adsbexchange-mlat_maint.sh script

so FA ADSBx 3.5.3 image MLAT will never start.

This affects ALL images including installed images out there in the wild. FA ADSBx image is now broken when it reboots. MLAT client will not start - all images need to be upgraded and patched.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

Did you guys get this all sorted out?

 

Has a solution been found for this as I have exactly this problem and its stopping me posting data

I have TV installed if that helps

 

My file had valid data, so does suggest thats not the reason?

Code:

#!/bin/sh
while true
  do
    sleep 30
    /usr/bin/mlat-client --input-type dump1090 --input-connect localhost:30005 --lat 51.49915 --lon -0.86886 --alt 30 --user feeder --server feed.adsbexchange.com:31090 --no-udp --results beast,connect,localhost:30104
  done

 

Haha, I like problems that sort themselves.

I opted for TV, should I get zerotier?

You saw my form for ownership of Zcons-51300?

Thanks for your prompt help!!
