unable to resolve host address 'raw.githubusercontent.com sudo bash -c "$(wget -nv -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adsbxchange/adsb-exchange/master/install.sh)" trying to add adsbexchange to a flightaware feeder
You likely mistyped something. Try it like this: curl -o /tmp/feed.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adsbxchange/adsb-exchange/master/install.sh sudo bash /tmp/feed.sh (https://github.com/adsbxchange/adsb-exchange#obtaining-and-using-the-scripts) Otherwise you might be having DNS issues, try a reboot (sudo reboot).
I didn't mistype because I copied and pasted. I'm having a hard time getting commands in because it doesn't ssh nicely. Keeps stopping as I am typing and resetting. Sometimes I put in the log in and password and it just sits there. and 5 minutes later it gives the login message but no prompt. when I tried your command I got this reply. It's not playing nice....
Well your network isn't working properly. I'd recommend either reimaging with the piaware sd-card image you're using or using Raspbian: https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-wiki/wiki/Raspbian-Lite:-ADS-B-receiver Somehow your network isn't working and i can't really help you with that beyond checking if starting from scratch will improve it.
Well i know that. Either something is wrong with the image or something is wrong with your local network. (could also be that there is an issue with the sd-card dying .... or the wireless on the pi could be bad ....) So i'm sorry but i can't help you troubleshoot your local network, that's just beyond the scope of this forum. That's why i told you what you could try, if you don't want to try that, sorry can't help you.
Maybe I should give you some background, I was feeding ADSBX, Flightaware, FlightRadar24, Radar Box and Planefinder for a year, when about 9 months ago my Flightaware MLAT indicator started showing Red(No MLAT) So I asked James what to do and he messed with it but we couldn't get the MLAT to quit dropping. I bought a new power supply and burned a SD card with the ADSBx image and then added piaware to it and that worked but I still had MLAT dropping out intermittently, I made a python script to restart my piaware service every 20 minutes and that kept me going until earlier this week when my pi stopped wth "Kernel Panic" Thursday I bought a new SD card and burned Piaware on it and it feeds Flightaware ok, but I wanted to add ADSBx feeder to it. That's where I was when I started this thread.
Ok, let's check the network settings then, please show the output for: sudo piaware-config Please replace your wifi password with password (let's see where we get, i wouldn't rule out your RPi just being broken :/)
Well this is an easy one, i didn't expect a bad static network config (i maybe should have). sudo piaware-config wireless-nameservers "8.8.8.8 4.4.4.4" sudo reboot This should fix the issues, you had a dot between the two IPs.
Well you configured the DNS servers wrong, those are responsible for converting the URL to an IP. (resolving) Also i don't think you should set netmask and broadcast, one of the two should be sufficient. So if you're still having issues: sudo piaware-config wireless-broadcast "" Generally best to just go with DHCP and see if you can tell the router to always give the device the same IP address.
Well install the feed scripts for adsbexchange: https://github.com/adsbxchange/adsbexchange-stats#step-1-feeder-package This should then show you feeding: https://www.adsbexchange.com/myip Also you can check mlat sync here: https://map.adsbexchange.com/mlat-map/
