Dump1090-fa-minimal

Hi Does anyone know if and what i use from this website below to install dump1090-fa-minimal on a Ubuntu system so i can use ADSB with OpenWeb Rx Plus

GitHub - flightaware/dump1090: Dump1090 is a simple Mode S decoder for RTLSDR devices

Thank you in advance

Install latest version of dump1090-fa minimal on Ubuntu.
It is built with
(1) Support for rtlsdr (DVB-T and other RTL based Dongles)
(2) Support for network mode.

NO support for bladerf, hackrf, limesdr, and soapysdr.

Copy-paste following command in Terminal / PuTTy:

sudo bash -c "$(wget -O - https://github.com/abcd567a/piaware-ubuntu-debian-amd64/raw/master/install-dump1090-fa-rtlsdr-only.sh)"

The bash script I have given in my above post to install dump1090-fa minimal on Ubuntu requires to go to:
https://github.com/flightaware/dump1090

It does NOT require to go to:
http://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/files/packages/dists/bullseye .

Apparently instead of trying on Ubuntu, you have tried my bash script on Debian Bullseye on which you have already installed piaware from Flightaware repository. When the bash script is run, it first tries to update. As the Flightaware repository signature is broken currently, the bash script gives Error message, and exits. Please try again tomorrow, Hopefully Flightaware will fix their Repository signature by then.

Flightaware repository bug “unsigned” is now fixed by Flightaware.

You can now run the bash script. It wont give error now.

sudo bash -c "$(wget -O - https://github.com/abcd567a/piaware-ubuntu-debian-amd64/raw/master/install-dump1090-fa-rtlsdr-only.sh)"

I have no idea about OpenWeb RX, never tried it. Sorry, I cannot help you in this regard.

goodnight! I took advantage of the help to try to solve the same problem on my piaware, but it is still giving the error as below:

error: 3627 bytes of body are still expected
fetch-pack: unexpected disconnect while reading sid
acket
fatal: early EOF
fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output

If you want absolute minimal dump1090-fa, (i.e binary only), then use following commands:

git clone https://github.com/flightaware/dump1090      

cd dump1090                                            

make DUMP1090_VERSION=$(git describe --tags | sed 's/-.*//')                                                  

sudo install -Dm755 dump1090 /usr/bin/dump1090

 

(1) The make command will build dump1090 binary with following options.

make DUMP1090_VERSION=$(git describe --tags | sed 's/-.*//')

Building with:
  Version string:   v9.0
  Architecture:     aarch64
  DSP mix:          aarch64
  RTLSDR support:   yes
  BladeRF support:  no
  HackRF support:   no
  LimeSDR support:  no
  SoapySDR support: no

NOTE: The Architecture aarch64 shown above is that of my Pi model 4 with 64-bit Bookworm. In your case it may be different depending on your Pi and OS.

(2) The install command will install the binary in following location:

/usr/bin/dump1090

(3) There will be no skyaware map, and no systemd service file and no startup file. You can run it simply by following commands:

dump1090
OR
dump1090 --interactive
