The chart or table entitled Flights with Positions From This Feeder on FlightAware.com Within the Last Hour is missing from my stats page. It has displayed over the years but not now. I know positions from my feeder are being used because they appear in the track logs of selected flights.
Can anyone suggest the cause of this?
PS: I posted this a few hours ago but it has vanished. I assume the topic is legitimate,
Maybe dumb question, but are you sure that you are logged in? A bunch of us got logged out for some reason recently, so we were viewing the public version of our stats page.
An easy way to tell would be whether it shows your location lat/long in the Site Information block.
I seem to be logged in because Location lat/lon is displayed. In addition I can see that table for nearby sites.
Didn’t disappear
I can only see it on one of my sites.
If anyone wants to view my stats the URL is HERE. The table is missing, even after a flight has passed over CYXY and my data used - though you won’t know whose data is displayed in the Track Log as it will just indicate YXY.
I have had a similar issue for the past few months which seems to come and go like the wind. My first theory was that there was a set of IP addresses piaware was connecting to which caused the problem, but I could not make a firm connection.
I then remembered a while back I found the below line in my configuration and could not recall why I had put it there. I commented it out, restarted and all worked as it should - feeding data, aircraft displaying, etc.
adept-serverhosts piaware-ipv4.flightaware.com
On hindsight I got the feeling making this change was related to the problem I was seeing, so I reverted back to having the above line in the configuration. Restarted services and bingo, the flights from the this feeder section now works. I have restarted dump1090/piaware several times to break and establish a new connection with a new IP address and the flights from this feeder section still populates correctly.
I honestly have no idea what is going on except that it seems to have fixed my issue. Maybe it helps you. My 1000-foot view - is this possibly some type of ipv4 vs. ipv6 thing??
There might be a clue in the following.
A week ago I updated PiAware by writing the image to another card then inserting it in the RPi. During that process I was assigned a new site. A couple of hours later I edited the unique identifier to get my data logged by FlightAware.com to the original site.
