Problems with decoder / receiver / backend

Closed this issue · 5 comments

Hello,
I have a problem when starting tar1090. The following error message appears:

Problem fetching data from the server:
Seems the decoder / receiver / backend isn't working correctly !

I have connected a SDRplay RSPdx. Is this device not supported ?

Can you please paste the output of the following commands:

  • snap services ads-b
  • sudo journalctl -ef -u snap.ads-b.dump1090

I've only tested the snap with an RTL-SDR device, not sure if it works with others

Okay, here's the output:

snap services ads-b

It seems the device is not supported:

All right, thank you.

You could try finding out if the device can actually be supported by dump1090, and what compile options are needed in that case.
