rbfeeder for x86_64 or i386

[mignz]

Hello, I have a QNAP NAS running dump1090 + fr24feeder running in Docker. I would like to feed to RadarBox24 also and I can't find rbfeeder built for x86_64 or i386.

Does it exist? Or can it be compiled?

Can't get it to compile on Debian x86_64.

After figuring out all the packages libs and whatever I had to install, it's stuck with a sprintf error...

I am stuck right at this first step. What values of these variables should be used?

Quote from Github/mutability/rbfeeder

To compile this program, you must define the following variables: CONN_KEY, CONN_NONCE and DEF_XOR_KEY.

Example: $ CONN_KEY="abc" CONN_NONCE="xyz" DEF_XOR_KEY="1234" make -j 4

It is very sad, that radarbox does not provide x86 binary. I have found docker image of rbfeeder https://registry.hub.docker.com/r/mikenye/radarbox
That docker image is using qemu to emulate arm on x86. Interesting idea. You on qnap probably have docker, so u can try. I used steps in this docker image build script to get it working on my setup, without docker. I have put my notes on my blog http://blog.erben.sk/2020/08/14/how-to-run-radarbox24-feeder-on-x86/

Thank you @iwik. This is great.
I was waiting for Radarbox24 to release amd64 package. Tonight or tommorrow I will try your method on Ubuntu 20 amd64 on my PC.

I have already successfully installed following on my PC running Ubuntu 20 amd64:

(1) dump1090-fa (by building deb package from source code)
(2) piaware data feeder  (by building deb package from source code)
(3) dump978-fa  (by building deb package from source code)
(4) modesmixer2 (by downloading amd64 binary from google drive using wget command)
(5) flightradar24 feeder (by downloading amd64 deb package using wget command)
(6) planefinder feeder (by downloading i386 deb package using wget command and installing required i386 dependencies)

I have posted the detailed step-by-step method for all the above noted 6 items here:

Did you ever have any success getting RadarBox24 to work properly on x86/amd64?  My old RPi3B seems to have finally died for good, I spent yesterday getting things set back up on an old PC, which is probably better for keeping graphs over multiple years, but I cannot for the life of me make this work.

Currently running; PiAware 4.0, FlightRadar24, ADSBExchange & PlaneFinder Client on the following old junk PC -->

Code: [Select]

OS: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) x86_64
Kernel: 4.19.0-13-amd64
CPU: AMD Athlon 2850e @ 1.800GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430
Memory: 662MiB / 1740MiB
What am i doing wrong here, or what's the best way to approach this?  I managed to spin up the 32-bit version of pfclient_4.1.1_i386 under Linux, but i don't really have the resources (1 CPU core, 2GB memory) just to spin up a Docker host on this junker in order to compile or run software that folks should be making available.  I guess RadarBox doesn't want us to feed their beast.  Too bad.  Sorry to revive a dead thread... there's not a lot of activity on non-ARM platforms.

@abcd567 I tried to follow you thread to the FlightAware forums, but that post appears OUTDATED, as well.  I'll keep poking around.  Thanks for the continued contributions to this community, folks.

Short answer: NO

Radarbox24 do NOT have Linux feeder for x86_64
They have only for RPi (32-bit armhf and 64-bit aarch)
Unfortunately these dont get installed on Debian amd64 due to dependency issue.

The Radadarbox24 forum moderator (Runway31) may contact Radarbox software developer (Jonis Maurin Ceara) and request him to make available amd64 x86_64 package.

In Flightaware forum, there are lot of threads in which I have added [OUTDATED] in the thread title due to EITHER newer versions of OS released by Debian & Ubuntu, OR newer version of Piaware feeder released by Flightaware.

However you can always find a thread for current version of OS and piaware data feeder, and that one will not have [OUTDATED] in it's title. The latest as on Dec 25, 2020 is following:

Howto Install Piaware 4.0 on Debian-10 amd64, Ubuntu-20 amd64 & Kali-2020 amd64 on PC

Guess we'll maybe try this in the "Feedback" section.

Maybe add some comment / suggestions for anything I forgot, or worded poorly? Thanks sir. I'll check your links.

[Runway 31]

Peatrick suggest that you email support direct as they dont look on here very often

[peatrick]

Thanks, I tried to email support.  They don't offer that, only a "normal Linux package" which is exactly what i asked for, I guess only ARM packages are available, no intention to add further support.  I give up.

[Runway 31]

Peatrick

Thats not support you contacted, that was me you emailed and I am not support hence  I advised the information contained on here.  [email protected] is the address you require

I would imagine if there was a big enough requirement they would add it
