Graph1090 stopped for few hours, started

FlightAware ADS-B Flight Tracking

I have rpi4 Deb12 running since abt a year, no issues, just noticed now, several hours ago my graphs stopped charting, by the time I’ve noticed, it’s all OK again, anything to check/look ?
no real issue, just curious ?

also, can I setup graph1090 on a rpi withOUT FA, just to chart System Graphs ? where to disable ADS-B in such ?

What about the system logs? The issue is not with graphs1090, but with the collection of data such as from dump1090-fa or whatever process you are using.

probably a power outage.
graph data is saved at night, so probably a power outage at 16:00 local

oops…ahhh…
early afternoon I was updating firmware then ROM on PoE switch, which involved rebooting the switch…
as I had difficulty with ROM, switch was rebooted multiple times, RPI is powered from that switch…
(PC was ‘too far’ from switch, was not getting ROM option till PC was on the switch itself)

:pray:@wiedehopf

can I setup graph1090 on a rpi withOUT FA, just to chart System Graphs ? where to disable ADS-B in such ?

no provision for disabling ADS-B … only the other way around … check the readme though / default file.

You can edit the html … or just ignore the ADS-B part.

just noticed typo in
“To re-enable the behavrious use this command:”

installed on ‘other’ rpi, managed to edit html, so just getting rpi stuff, thanks again!!
great use of rrdtool!

hmm, I think I should have just used this instead of editing html…
sudo sed -i -e ‘s/id=“panel_1090” style=“display:block”/id=“panel_1090” style=“display:none”/’ /usr/share/graphs1090/html/index.html

Got this when I tried copy and paste of your sed command:

jrg@pi42:~ $ sudo sed -i -e ‘s/id=“panel_1090” style=“display:block”/id=“panel_1090” style=“display:none”/’ /usr/share/graphs1090/html/index.html
sed: -e expression #1, char 1: unknown command: `?'

Editing the html worked though - thanks.

the actual command was taken from GitHub - wiedehopf/graphs1090: Graphs for readsb / dump1090-fa / dump1090 (based on dump1090-tools by mutability) , perhaps it got mangled when I pasted, it certainly worked when I tried it, both, to hide and unhide, basically, it replaces display:block with display:none, I edited my html before trying the command, reverted html to original, tried to remove then reinstate, works fine, pls check on github

All the wrong quotation marks. (they need to be ' for single and " for double quotes)
```
code
```

Use like this.
Or maybe you pasted it into some rich text editor at some point.
