The older PI models doesn't have JAVA installed.
You can get JAVA on those older models with:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-jdk.

Hi,

recently i switched from a windows based PC to a raspberry pi to run planeplotter and of course i want to use the pi to feed the data to live-military-mode-s too.

Unfortunatly it does not work for me. I have a Raspberry Pi 2 Version B, set up to run planeplotter which works smoothly. I followed the given instructions here but on startup or after booting and executing the logger myself i get these java errors shown in this picture:

I don't know, what i am missing. It doesn't matter if the planeplotter programs (modesmixer2 and ppup1090 as described here: http://planeplotter.pbworks.com/w/page/ ... -S%20Beast ) are running or not.

Do these programs have to run for this to work like on windows where modeslogger needs planeplotter? Do i need to forward a certain port so the pi can communicate with the live-military-mode-s server?

I hope someone can help me with this issue!

Thanks
Dennis

nobody?

at least a few ppl are feeding data with a pi. do you guys have anything running besides the logger?

Okay, think i got a step further.

i set modesmixer2 up to provide data on port 30003, which the modes.jar seems to require. This way i don't get the errors from above. Unfortunatly i get some other errors:



This causes the modes.jar to restart over and over again in a loop?!

I forwarded this message to the programmer.
