Iām running dump1090-mutability on a Raspi1, everything runs okay.
Since a lot of weeks Iām trying to improve my installation regarding distance and signal strength.
For that, I wanted to install the dump1090 tools and gamble a little with the snr.
I tried to install the dump1090 tools from Ted Sluis https://github.com/tedsluis/dump1090-tools also as from mutability itself (tried swiftbyte.com/articles/soft ā¦ mutability).
All comes out with not having the rrd data bases created under /var/lib/collectd/rrd/localhost.
I guess itās a path error.
Should I provide my collectd.conf ?
Any hints are warmly welcome.
Best regards,
INSTALLATION ON $9 BOARD āC.H.I.P.ā
Tried to install ONLY dump1090-mutability. When reached the stage to configure automatic start of dump1090-mutability, the chip crashed. Tried several time, exactly same happens:
Configuring dump1090-mutability
dump1090 can be started automatically via an init-script. Otherwise, the init-script does nothing; you must run dump1090 by hand. You can modify the options used when automatically starting dump1090 by running ādpkg-reconfigure dump1090-mutabilityā as root, or by editing /etc/default/dump1090-mutability.

Iāve been running dump1090-mutability for awhile since I have been using the ADS-B Receiver image. Iām setting up a second receiver and I noticed there are two downloads, one for dump1090-fa and one for dump1090-mutability. What is the major differences between the two dump1090s?
(1) The User Interfaces on Map are different. The Map can be made full screen, table hides, or table can be made full screen, map hides. Also when an aircraft is clicked, its details appear in a box. Please see screenshots below
(2) Method of settings/configuration is somewhat different, and in the beginning confusing for one who has used mutability for some time.
(3) There may be some inner performance/operational differences which I am not aware of, nor have felt any.
Image 1 of 2: dump1090-mutability
In the screenshots below, the mutability shows less planes than fa, because the mutability is on a system with spider+generic dvb-t (black), and fa is on FA antenna+Filter+Prostick
They are fairly similar in performance, as far as I can tell. Most of the work is now being done on the FA version(if you look in github). I would try the FA version and see how it goes.
After backup, I think you will have to run install.sh within the adsb-receiver directory to re-install everything and select/enable advanced features. Then open a browser and revisit
your-station-ip-address/install/
to set up the portal again.
Then you can restore your data using the guide in the wiki page above.
I thought it would be an interesting exercise to install Pi-Hole on my tracker. It worked but it badly broke my web interface and Iāve discovered thatās because it completely overwrote my /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf file. Iām getting 404 errors all over the place.
My backup regime isnāt in place yet and even though Iāve now removed Pi-Hole I have a very badly wrong lighttpd.conf file.
Could someone post the code so I can recreate it please? I chose dump1090-mutability as install originally.
Thanks - Thatās actually made it worse! Previously I was getting the web interface with 404 errors all over, now itās totally failing to connect to the Pi for that interface.
/edit - OK, lighttpd isnāt starting now - Error in the file so checking to see what the error is.
That was one of the things I tried earlierā¦ Doing it again now:
