Hello,
today I tried to claim a new Feeder ID:
The Website not shows the new Feeder … (empty)
F12 in the Browser returned by the XHR Call to detect my local provider IP:
Error 402 Payment Requiered
just to clarify, you set up your new piaware feeder, went to the website to get a new feeder id and you weren’t able to get to the page to claim a feeder ID so you could then re-config teh piaware with the new feeder id?
I went to the same page as you - [PiAware - Claim and Link a Brand New PiAware Ground Station - FlightAware](https://Claim Feeder ID) and got basically a blank page – there are tabs on the top, but the way to claim a feeder id is missing.
I even tried it on an incognito window in Chrome with my pihole turned off, and it returned the same webpage, so it’s something on the Flightaware side that’s broken.
@obj can you help out?
Yes, that’s exactly how I did it too.
For explain:
I have set up a second RPI and installed FlightAware. The claim page usually shows the new one after a few minutes (browser and RPI) behind the same provider IP address.
But the Flightware page can’t read my provider IP because of the 402 error, so it’s a problem on the FlightAware API side.
Yep, something is broken here. Investigating…
(You should still be able to claim by UUID, though)
@obj any tutorial to claim by UUID, I found in the ways by the Website above.
This should be fixed now.
we’re planning to make this easier in general, but if you are using a PiAware sdcard image, just follow the claim link on the local status page (go to the local IP address of your feeder in a browser)
I feed to adsbfi which I think is just a port of the adsb exchange and the script generates a uuid automatically as part of the setup. The downside is that if you break your setup often, which i seem to do, you get a unique uuid every time. But I’m sure there’s a way to modify that install script ask if you need a new id vs if you have an old one you want to use/input old uuid and then have the correct uuid matched up between the feeder and server
However since I’m a terrible programmer (along with a terrible home Ubuntu setup custodian) this is all conjecture on my part .
Hi there,
is it just for me, or is there an issue to get a new Feeder ID?
I can only see seme tabs, but no option for the real ID.
Thanks, Matt
install piaware-web as additional package.
Please post output of following command. It will show the source of the piaware-web package:
apt-cache policy piaware-web
Then install that package and open it on the page of the new feeder:
sudo apt install piaware-web
Claim the new feeder ID from the piaware-web page that should display you have an unclaimed feeder.
