Piaware fails to log in after restore from backup - HELP!

@garylovesbeer
First of all glad to see your post after a long period. Last time I remember to see your post was in Planefinder forum.

  1. Go to your stats page
    https://flightaware.com/adsb/stats/user/garylovesbeer

    and copy your Unique Identifier (see screenshot below)

  2. Give command
    sudo piaware-config feeder-id xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

    where xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx is the Unique Identifier you have copied from your Flightaware stats page.

    If the command is executed successfully, it will rerturn following

    Set feeder-id to xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx in /etc/piaware.conf:9
    .

  3. Restart piaware for implementing feeder id
    sudo systemctl restart piaware
    .

  4. Wait 10 minutes, then give following command to check status
    sudo systemctl status piaware -l

    If it is feeding Flightaware, last few lines will be like following:

    9 msgs recv'd from dump1090-fa; 9 msgs sent to FlightAware
    63 msgs recv'd from dump1090-fa (54 in last 5m); 63 msgs sent to FlightAware
    69 msgs recv'd from dump1090-fa (6 in last 5m); 69 msgs sent to FlightAware
    

    .

  5. Check Status on your Flightaware stats page https://flightaware.com/adsb/stats/user/garylovesbeer
