rbfeeder receives dump1090-fa, but isn't sending anything to Radarbox

[wooter]

I have an odd one here.

My rbfeeder setup went smoothly, and airplane positions show up in /var/log/rbfeeder.log, but my Sharing Key is not found in RadarBox, and according to rbfeeder.log no packets are sent.

 A snapshot from rbfeeder.log:

This "Connection established" and "Could not start connection. Timeout." happens in regular intervals, and each 30s the statistics are shown that there are 0 packets sent.

So to me it looks dump1090 is working fine, rbfeeder is receiving its data but no packets are sent to RB.

Any clues where I should be looking? The RPi resolves radarbox24.com and radarbox.com

Did you claim your station?

If not, then to claim, please follow instructions here:

https://www.radarbox.com/raspberry-pi/claim


.

[wooter]

When trying to claim, I get the error "Sharing Key not found".

I assume this is because rpfeeder hasn't been able to connect to RadarBox yet to publish the key.

[abcd567]

Reboot the Pi and check if key has been obtained.

The latest version of rbfeeder (0.4.1-20210414164501), fails to start/restart by systemd command "sudo systemctl restart rbfeeder", and and hence fails to obtain the key. The only way left to restart rbfeeder is to Reboot the Pi (sudo reboot).

I'm sorry, but that didn't do anything either.

I keep seeing these messages, even after rebooting:

Code: [Select]

And the Sharing Key is still not found to claim my RPi.

Any other ideas? :)

And the Sharing Key is still not found to claim my RPi.

Does the output of this command not show the key?

Code: [Select]


sudo rbfeeder --showkey --no-start 



You can find the key by following command also:

Code: [Select]


cat /etc/rbfeeder.ini



[wooter]

That command shows the key.

But the key is not recognised on the Radarbox website.

[abcd567]

Try this:

First delete the file /etc/rbfeeder.ini and purge the installed rbfeeder by following commands

Code: [Select]

sudo rm /etc/rbfeeder.ini

sudo apt-get purge rbfeeder 

sudo reboot 



After reboot Install rbfeeder again, and get new key.

Code: [Select]


sudo apt-get install rbfeeder

sudo rbfeeder --showkey --no-start   


Now try to claim using new key.


.

[wooter]

Followed that, no change. Still the same behaviour, and the new key is also not recognised by Radarbox.

There is some sharing key issues that have been escalated to our development team.

I’m +1 with this issue, my setup seems ok (with 1090-fa feeds FA, Fr24, PlaneFinder) but the key is not accepted by the radarbox claim page. Lost count of how many abcd567’s troubleshooting posts I read after so many google searches. Following up with the thread.

[Runway 31]

See previous post, there is an issue with keys which has been passed to the developers for correction

Any updates on this bug?
Still unable to upload my data and finish the claim process.
