Greetings,

I've tried to install the actual piaware version as explained here ->https://de.flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/install. As a result, my running dump1090 won't be getting any adsb-data any more (Ajax-Error). This is the installation log of piaware: sudo apt-get install piaware Reading package lists...

dump1090-fa and dump1090-mutability don't coexist without some configuration. Both want to configure the same lighttpd settings and lighttpd gets confused by having the same setting set twice, even though the values are the same.

You will need to disable one or the other.

mutability commented 7 years ago

Note in particular that the piaware instructions say:

If you don't already have ADS-B receiver software such as dump1090 installed, (... instructions on installing dump1090-fa)

If you do already have ADS-B receiver software installed, then you should have skipped that step.

mutability commented 7 years ago

I can probably do something about this with update-alternatives, I guess, it's just a pain. The assumption is that if you're using dump1090-mutability then you know what you're doing.

JohnDoeIsKIng commented 7 years ago

Okay, thanks for the reply. Of course I'm using dump1090-mutability, but I thought that thre is a chance that, regarding only to the decoder part, the two forks could coexist. I I can do something regarding a patch for the lighttpd-configs, let me know. Btw: I'm running an older dump1090-mutability-dev.version (1.15), maybe from March, that works okay with piaware 2.1-5 ...

mutability commented 7 years ago

piaware and dump1090 are two separate things. Of course dump1090-mutability works OK with PiAware 2.1-5. It also works OK with PiAware 3.0.5. It's only if you install dump1090-fa that you will have issues.

JohnDoeIsKIng commented 7 years ago

I'm confused about the difference between dump1090-fa and piaware ... If there 's a "single" client independent from dump1090-mutability that enables me to send the data from dump1090-mutability to my flightaware account, please let me know !

mutability commented 7 years ago

That is exactly what piaware is.

mutability commented 7 years ago

TBH I suggest you try just using the piaware sdcard image as that has everything preinstalled and preconfigured.

JohnDoeIsKIng commented 7 years ago

But how comes that on my other raspi dump1090-mutability and piaware 2.1-5 work perfectly together and I can feed the data to my fa-account ?

JohnDoeIsKIng commented 7 years ago

Okay, but I want the nice GUI features of dump1090-mutability (different shapes and altitude dependent colors of planes, FR24-Link-Integration and so on) ! :-)

mutability commented 7 years ago

Because.. you installed different software there? Have you tried dump1090-mutability with piaware 3.0.5? No dump1090-fa. You don't need dump1090-fa if you already have a dump1090 installed. Read the piaware install instructions.

mutability commented 7 years ago

Also, for future support, please try the FA forums or mail adsbsupport@flightaware.com, github is not a good place to get general help with installing packages, it's aimed at actual bug reports.

JohnDoeIsKIng commented 7 years ago

Okay, thanks. I will post my questions there. Thanks for your explanations and your patience.

JohnDoeIsKIng commented 7 years ago

I've found a solution: I've build a piaware package like explained here https://www.swiftbyte.com/articles/software-defined-radio/setting-up-piaware-and-dump1090-mutability-on-raspbian-ubuntu-or-debian During the built / installation I had to install a few packages, but after that it runs smoothly. Best regards,

JD.

mutability commented 7 years ago

OK, so that would be "Don't install dump1090-fa, just piaware", like I said above.

mutability commented 7 years ago

I separated out the statcache config in dump1090-fa and I'll do the same in dump1090-mutability at some point, which should mitigate the immediate problem, but having both dump1090-fa and dump1090-mutability installed at the same time still doesn't make much sense because you're going to have to disable one or the other, they can't both use the dongle at the same time.

JohnDoeIsKIng commented 7 years ago

'OK, so that would be "Don't install dump1090-fa, just piaware", like I said above.'

That 's what I thought to do as I installed the package named piaware ... Maybe It comes as a collateral with installing the repository .. So in sum: As I installed the package according to thelink in the first post, it comes to the error I described. To be concrete: I never installed a package called dump1090-fa or something similar, only tried to install the current piaware-version! Anywhere, it runs. Thanks for replying.

mutability commented 7 years ago

And yet the package got installed, so you did something that caused it to be installed. I can't really diagnose that without a careful description of what you did and what the results were.

mutability commented 7 years ago

The piaware package does Recommend: dump1090-fa, so if you installed without --no-recommends it would have been installed too. I guess maybe that should be dropped to Suggests:
