Hi all,
I’m relatively new to the ADS-B space, so please bear with me!
I bought the FA Pro Stick Plus and a 1090mhz antenna from ModMyPi, which I’ve got setup on a Debian 9 system running dump1090-mutability. I’d love to feed FlightAware, but the only instructions I can readily find are about running PiAware on a Raspberry Pi.
What’s the best way to feed FA using my current setup?
Thanks 
Have you looked at
?
I have looked at that page, but the apt repository that it adds doesn’t contain any packages for the amd64 architecture - I presume they’ve been pre-built for the rPI. That means I still can’t actually install PiAware.
Thank you for the link though!
You can build it from scratch
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential debhelper tcl8.6-dev autoconf python3-dev python3-venv dh-systemd libz-dev
git clone GitHub - flightaware/piaware_builder: Debian package builder for piaware
cd piaware_builder
chmod +x sensible-build.sh
sh sensible-build.sh jessie
cd package-jessie
dpkg-buildpackage -b
Then install the package it creates
something like
sudo dpkg -i (package name/location)
The manual method posted by @jonhawkes2030 is good and works OK.
If you want easier automated method, use J Prochazka’s scripts by giving commands below:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git
cd ~/
git clone https://github.com/jprochazka/adsb-receiver.git
cd ~/adsb-receiver
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh
It looks like he just got it to work

Thanks @jonhawkes2030 - I did indeed get it working as per your instructions, but in my excitement forgot to update the post!
Thank you all for your help
I have only problems with the script from J Prochazka, especially at the end with the web based creation of mysql or sqlite. The repository hasn’t been uodated for a long time.
Any other source for debian install script. ?

Thanks, building right now. All went without errors, but when i dial-up the page dump1090, the bottom status that there is no data
