traian.niolau:
Hi. I am a complete noob when it comes to Linux so some patience would be appreciated.

I have rpi 4 with Raspberry Pi OS with dump 1090-fa that currently feeds fr24, flightaware, planefinder and adsb-x.

I followed abcd567's post and installed the bullseye build of rbfeeder on bookworm but for some reason that I don't know/understant, it doesn't feed anything to RadarBox.

abcd567:
Your settings of rbfeeder are OK.
Seems dump1090-fa is not producing any data.

Please post output of following commands which will show if dump1090-fa is producing data for use by rbfeeder, fr24feed and piaware:

--- Code: ---
sudo systemctl status dump1090-fa

sudo journalctl -u piaware -n 25

sudo fr24feed-status

--- End code ---

Glad to know your problem is solved.

Reboot solves lot of issues, as it stops then re-starts all the processes & Apps.

It appears dump1090-fa has stopped working or malfunctioning, and its restart by reboot has fixed the problem. :)
