I cannot figure it out!

The situation is I have 2 feeds. One is working fine and displaying on my profile. The other is not uploading anything despite working and receiving data. I have seen that it has a different IP address on the profile page, to the one on the device. Is this the issue?

HELP. thanks.

Replace feeder-id with the feeder-id used on the 2nd feed.
You can find the feeder id like this on the console, i’ll assume you have ssh access?

cat /var/cache/piaware/feeder_id 

If the feed id is already showing as one of your stations, check the log.

sudo journalctl -u piaware | tail -n40

You are aware you need to click the orange bar to show the stats for the 2nd station?

Thanks,
yes, been using flightaware for some time but not encountered this before. I am seeing data being passed to flightaware when checking the log via SSH but nothing is showing on the stats for my profile. This is just for the one feed, the other is fine.

Post the log. Restart piaware:

sudo systemctl restart piaware

Check that you don’t have the same id set for both receivers.

Have you checked both receivers that the id is not the same and both ids belong to one of your three stations in the stats?

What you posted above is not quite enough context because you checked the log a bit too soon after restarting the service.

Really you should address all the points i posted before, not just some.

OK.
Yes I know that you need to click the orange bar to change feeds.
Yes I have checked feeder IDs on the console.
Yes All feeds have the correct unique ID, no two feeds have the same ID.
Yes I have checked this via sudo piaware-config
Yes I have restarted piaware.
Here is the ssh log.

I have sorted it now. Thanks for your help.

What was the problem?

If I’m honest I don’t really know. Just kept rechecking the config and rebooting.

There is some bug where piaware will stop reporting and the log output will stop.

Maybe you were focusing on the wrong receiver which was actually working?
And the one stuck just started working once you rebooted it.

Pretty sure piaware 8 will have a workaround for that issue, no clue how common it is.
