Can anyone help?
I am trying to upgrade via the Flight Aware web portal, from 10.2 to 11.0.

You have old OS buster. Not sure if it is supported for ver 11.0.
Some one from Flightaware staff can give a valid answer.
For upgrade to 11.0 on Trixie, we are using the method in following post:

Hi,
When I reviewed the changelog a few days ago, I noticed that when they added Trixie, they removed support for Buster. Suggest you just stick with what you have for now. Even if you could, I doubt you would notice any change between 10 and 11. It is mainly Trixie support.
Link to dump1090-fa changelog:
For you, don’t worry about 11 until you decide it is finally time to upgrade your entire system. That will be a fresh start from scratch. When you do that then, you will have the latest. There’s no rush.
Regards,

Mine is running on bullseye without any problems. Probably not working on buster
From the changelog of dump1090:
- Add build support for trixie, remove buster support
From the changelog:
“skyaware: Update aircraft database to 2026-04-09”
My first thought was this would apply to Skyaware Anywhere. Since it does not mention Anywhere, where is this database located?
OK, it’s on the SD card. So unless/until I upgrade to version 11.0 I won’t have this updated database.
/usr/share/skyaware/html/db
Correct, 11.0 does not support buster, mostly because upstream OS support for buster has ended (Debian’s LTS support ended in mid-2024)
