Installation error

[bvb40170]

Can anyone explain this error
"Error opening the listening port 32458 (Raw TCP output): bind: Address already in use" which is preventing me from adding Radarbox24 to my Rpi4?
Many thanks

You are running two copies of rbfeeder. First one started by system and has grabbed port 32458, the second copy is started by some command you gave manually, and as port 32458 is already in use, it gives error message.

Reboot Pi, then issue this command to see the status:

sudo systemctl status rbfeeder   


.

Thanks, I've rebooted my Rpi (by unplugging and replugging), ran the suggested command and below is the result

pi@piaware:~ $ sudo systemctl status rbfeeder
● rbfeeder.service
   Loaded: masked (Reason: Unit rbfeeder.service is masked.)
   Active: inactive (dead)

Thanks again.   After running these commands, this was the result

pi@piaware:~ $ sudo systemctl status rbfeeder
● rbfeeder.service - RBFeeder Service
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/rbfeeder.service; disabled; vendor preset
   Active: inactive (dead)

   Active: inactive (dead)

Enable it and check

Code Select Expand


sudo systemctl enable rbfeeder

sudo reboot

sudo systemctl status rbfeeder 


If still error message, then copy paste output of this command

cat /etc/rbfeeder.ini

Good morning, ABCD567.
Without any further commands being entered, my rbfeeder has sprung to life and is now showing all of the aircraft that are being shown on my SkyAware display.   No idea what happened overnight but I'm happy to leave it as it is and accept that fate intervenes sometimes!
Thanks again for your help.
Kind regards
