FlightAware ADS-B Flight Tracking
1

Hello,

As I type (2041Z), my stats page says “Last Seen: Today - about 2 hours ago” and there is an accompanying anomaly report stating that “ADS-B positions were last received from this feeder a while ago”. However, piaware.out indicates that messages are currently being sent to FA:

Is this cause for concern?

Mine got updated just a few minutes ago. Looks like they are still working with the move to the new infrastructure. Things like this will happen until it is completely done.

So based off the wiki recommendations I did some upgrades… and now I’m here:

I am using piaware_1.15-1. For about the last 2 hours I have not been able to feed to FA. I am still feeding OK to FR24, PP and VRS-world.

Every time I try to start piaware, this is what I am seeing:

11/14/2014 22:38:33 error handling message ‘_c 1416004712 _s 0003 airGround A alt 2700 clock 1416004713 facility fAT-b827ebf01b32 heading 315 hexid 7C4270 ident NEQ ip 124.187.32.3 lat-27.54671 lon 152.95171 mac b8:27:eb:f0:1b:32 speed 149 squawk 4407 user Lyndale’ from server (can’t read “row(type)”: no such element in array), continuing…

Is this the same problem?

Thank you,

Maybe you broke it, maybe not. Checked mine, and it was working fine.
Rebooted to restart piaware to check. Piaware.out shows AFU notices. I think will will have something soon.

Anybody else getting this, please?

cat piaware.out

Just rebooted my RPi, now receiving the same type of messages that are quickly filling the piaware.out file. Also running 1.16-1, which I have stopped until this is resolved. Presumably similar server issues that occurred last Tuesday.

8

I noticed that /tmp/piaware.out is growing quite rapidly. Even with a 16 GB card, space will run out unless /tmp has quota set.
I executed “sudo piaware-config -stop” to shut down piaware. Dump1090 continues to upload to Planeplotter.

9

Yes, check
ads-b-flight-tracking-f21/i-broke-it-t19473.html

10

I’m in the same state. dump1090 is up feeding fr24. piaware is down.

11

Thanks guys we are looking into it now.

12

And thanks for merging the threads.

Here’s to the joys of new releases!!!

13

yes the same over here

Enhancement Request #1 for PiAware: Add a command to control where the PiAware logs go.

With computers that have a Flash Drive, such as a Raspberry Pi, it is bad idea to be constantly writing to the Flash. What I do when recording data is to direct my program’s log files to a RAM drive that is associated with tempfs. So I would like to be able to “tell” PiAware where to put the PiAware Log Files as the tempfs RAM drive actually is not always located at /dev/shm for all Debian Linux distributions. Something like “-ld /dev/shm” where -ld means “Log Directory”. The default Log Directory would be /tmp as it is now.

Enhancement Request #2 for PiAware: Limit the number of bytes that goes to the PiAware log file.

Recently, PiAware has gone “hog wild” writing out data continuously to the PiAware log files resulting in files that are 800 Megabytes long!!! Here is the log message that is being repeated.

“11/14/2014 23:59:59 unrecognized message type ‘log’ from server, ignoring…”

This problem is being discussed in another posting, so I don’t expect nor want it to be addressed here. My main concern is the Size of the Log Files.

As PiAware wrote to piaware.out, it filled up the /tmp directory and crashed several other applications running on my Linux Computer that use /tmp. A maximum limit of 5 Megabytes for the PiAware Log Size seems reasonable to me. You may want to have very large log sizes for your own testing or when you work with a user that is having major problems. If this is the case then you may want to add a command that indicates the maximum size log file. Something like “-ls 50” where -ls means “Log Size” in megabytes. The default Log Size would be 5 megabytes or some default size that you think would be useful to all users.

I have the same. I stopped feeding for now as nothing was getting uploaded according to my stats, just my /tmp/piaware.out was growing and growing.

Anything we need/can do locally?

Hi,

Is FA having a server issue ? Its that stats, do not update, and my piaware.out og file is getting a huge number of error messages :

All seems to be ok now

Greets pirate

18

I just restarted my pi and it looks like things have been fixed. I’m logging and no error messages.

19

Restarted piaware, all seemed good. Rebooted, and it seems happy as a clam at high tide. Stats showing active, logging uploads. Was it a problem with one/ some of the scripts?

20

We are actively digging into this. Expect a 1.17-1 beta very soon. In the mean time, a restart of PiAware when it occurs is probably a good idea.

Once it’s tested and deployed to the site, we’ll email everyone to upgrade.

Beyond this fundamental problem/bug, we’re working to fix over-logging problems.
