Unable to setup RASPBERRY PI RADARBOX FEEDER

[AkshayCS]

Hello,

I've been trying to feed data from my pi by following this guide: https://www.radarbox24.com/raspberry-pi/guide, and I'm keep getting this error:

Installation finished
and I don't see the rbfeeder program installed.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Regards,
Akshay.


EDIT: I'm on Ubuntu Mate.
I'm seeing a similar article here:

Can anyone confirm that the issue mentioned in the above topic applies to Ubuntu Mate as well?

Thanks.

I have Ubuntu Xenial installed on OrangePiPC, and faced same problem as you have. I solved it by following workaround:

WORKAROUND
I already have RBFeeder installed on my other Pi (Raspberry Pi) running Raspbian Jessie.

I copied RBFeeder's  .deb file from Raspbian Jessie/Raspberry Pi, and using it, installed RBFeeder on Ubuntu Xenial/OrangePiPC successfully:

NOTE: In code below, the IP 192.168.0.21 is local IP of my Raspberry Pi/Raspbian Jessie. Replace it by local IP of your Pi running Raspbian Jessie (or Raspbian  Stretch) on which Radarbox24 feeder has been installed already..

Code: [Select]

#First find the location and full name of rbfeeder installation package in RPi/Raspbian Jessie
pi@raspberrypi:~$ sudo find / -name rbfeeder_*
/var/cache/apt/archives/rbfeeder_0.2.3-20170527202345_armhf.deb

#Now copy this file to OrangePiPC/Ubuntu Xenial
pi@orangepipc:~$ scp [email protected]:/var/cache/apt/archives/rbfeeder_0.2.3-20170527202345_armhf.deb  ~/
