Dedicated UAT Pi won't feed

[thespeedycab]

All
I have a dedicated UAT pi, that has dump978-fa running, and feeds FA without a problem. It is a PiAware SD-card 5.0. But I can't get it to feed RB. There is no 1090 and MLAT. On the pi I see the following:

pi@piaware:~ $ sudo rbfeeder --status

It just goes on.
I can see AC locally on the Pi. But on the radarbox site, it notes zero message, though the total is 108 (0+0+0=108, apparently).

Any tips appreciated

You need to modify settings under [dump978] in file /etc/rbfeeder.ini

Please see following post for details:

Hey @adcb567
that solves one problem: I now see UAT on RB.  In

sudo rbfeeder --status

I still have the cannot connect message:

Thoughts on this one?

Fun fact: UAT feeder also sends TIS-B data!

[abcd567]

This message will be there since the setting under [network] in file /etc/rbfeeder.ini are as follows, but there is no dump1090 running to provide data on port 30005

Code: [Select]

[network]
mode=beast
external_port=30005
external_host=127.0.0.1

You may either ignore it, or change "external_port=30005" to "external_port=30979". This may or may not work. Try it, if it creates problem, change port number back to 30005.

Dont forget to save file then restart rbfeeder after every time you make a change in file /etc/rbfeeder.ini

that has done the trick
thx, abcd
