Hi There, I am feeding ADS-B using a Blackberry Pi and I monitor its status using Virtual Radar Server. It is pulling PiAware messages no prolem and logs and feeds millions every day but no longer works for ADS-B. This is how Virtual radar Server is configured for ADS-B Clicking TEST CONNECTION says a connection can be made using these settings. Any ideas please?
Looking at the Connection Activity Log of Virtual radar Servera dn its giving me this, dont know if that helps?
Not sure what I changed but it is now pulling messages!! Still getting this in the connection log though so looks like I have a problem uploading
Feeding with VRS is no longer supported. Just install the feeding scripts on your Raspberry Pi that has the SDR attached. https://github.com/adsbxchange/adsb-exchange#ads-b-exchange-setup-scripts-airplane Maybe i'm misunderstanding, in that case explain more.
Hmmm that would explain it! Unfortunately due to a recent PC factory restore I dont have the login details for my Pi. Is there anyway of feeding via an app on my PC pulling the date from the Pi like I used to with Virtual radar server?
No, Linux is required to feed. Maybe you are using the defaults? (for the piaware sd-card: user pi, password flightaware)
Because I was pretty sure I didnt have login details I havent tried it in a while used PuTTY this evening to try to SSH to it and get this before I am able to enter a user or password: "remote side unexpectedly closed network connection". I know I have SSH enabled as about 3 months ago when I changed internet providers I was able to get into it to change networks.
I now have been able to log into my Pi and am followign through the commands one by one but when I type the following: git clone https://github.com/adsbxchange/adsb-exchange.git I get the attached error
Might be the piaware is really really really old? You'll need git to work with github otherwise the setup won't work (uses git internally as well) I'm sorry, if you really want to feed i'd suggest re-imaging with a current piaware image (if you want to feed both sites)
My RPi is currently feeding FlightAware with ADS-B data and also PlaneFinder. Both of these are working fine so I dont want to mess them up so whats the most straight forward way I can approach this so I can also feed ADS-B Exchange with ADS-B data without breaking whats already working?
Well try again ... If git clone doesn't work properly, no telling what else doesn't work. Usually it's not an issue, might even indicate your sd-card going bad.
I have found instructions to enable me to upgrade my version of Piaware so I am going to try that and then will try https://github.com/adsbxchange/adsb-exchange#ads-b-exchange-setup-scripts-airplane again
After updating and upgrading piaware I have now been able to run the scrips on https://github.com/adsbxchange/adsb-exchange#ads-b-exchange-setup-scripts-airplane again It asked me to set up a unique name and I used NewtownDAW How do I confirm that you are getting my data?
The script at the end should give you 2 URLs to check. https://adsbexchange.com/myip/ http://adsbx.org/sync/
Your dump1090-fa isn't working. That means your FA feed isn't working either. Check this log: sudo journalctl --no-pager -u dump1090-fa
