OpenPlotter 3 roadmap
System check shows signal k not running

I ran signal k installer and re-installed

This may be expected?

(2022-05-21, 05:53 PM)Sailoog Wrote: OK, that sounds like a progress Smile

Today I will publish new versions for apps using sources (dashboards, signal k, opencpn, settings). Now you should not have problems installing openplotter in any Debian derivative and any Ubuntu derivative.

Thanks Sailoog, glad I can contribute Smile

New versions for settings, dashboards, signal k and opencpn fixing errors.

To avoid problems with old versions first update settings and click on "add sources", then update the rest of apps.

OpenPlotter packages source already exists
free-x packages source already exists


Pressing refresh takes a while but gives the expected result. (50 seconds)

I downloaded OP3 starting-64 today. I had the same issue, and solved it thanks to Sailoog above suggestion . Rest of the
aps is being installed right now, Ill come back at the soonest with 1st impressions Big Grin

The problem I had with influx was my mistake, I hadn’t realised that the signal k key needs to be prefixed with ‘self.’ Data now being stored in the influx db 2 bucket.

I’ve begun looking at the network (Wi-Fi) configuration with rpi os 64 and op3.

I pre-configured the settings using raspberry pi imager v1.7.2 hostname, ssh password, ssid, password etc.and it worked ok.

I added a second Wi-Fi (usb dongle) on my pi4. Intending to use it as a hotspot

a) using a ralink device

- the ssid and password were mirrored from the main Wi-Fi on the pi and

- op3 network app opened

b) using a different Wi-Fi dongle (realtek)

- the dongle remained unassociated

- op3 network app failed to start.

Running Openplotter-network gives the following response:


pi@raspberrypi:~ $ openplotter-network

It may be that the Realtek is not supported, I did have problems with it on the buster release.

Hi,
I'm running OpenPlotter 3 64 bit on my headless RPI 4 running the last bullseye 64 bit and I still have some issues with OpenCPN FP:
It still can't open (Error: Unable to initialize GTK+, is DISPLAY set properly?) when avnav-ocharts plugin is enabled.
And when I disable it or when Avnav is not running, OpenCPN FP opens but it is very slow and I noticed several bugs:
- No matter what I do, I always have the "Unable to read OpenCPN FP configuration" in Check system.
- When I type "sudo flatpak run org.opencpn.OpenCPN" I have the error: app/org.opencpn.OpenCPN/aarch64/master not installed
- When I type "flatpak run org.opencpn.OpenCPN" (without sudo), it opens but I have the bug report:
In pixman_region32_init_rect: Invalid rectangle passed
Set a breakpoint on '_pixman_log_error' to debug
- When it opens, it always starts acting like it had previously crashed (asking if I want to disable plugins), it starts with a 0x0 window size unless I closed it in maximized or in full screen mode. It does it too with the Options window or the Object query window.
- When I open the Options windows, I have a lot of these recurring messages:

Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
Thank you again for your incredible work.

I got the same problem.

Paul M and jtaraskin, could you please put here the chipset models of your devices? usually you can know that opening a terminal an typing lsusb after pluging in the device.

This is obviously a bug, we can not break the app when non compatibles devices are connected, or maybe they are compatible and there is another problem, let's see.

EDIT: please send me also the output of iwconfig command when the devices are connected.

Just ignore these errors:

In pixman_region32_init_rect: Invalid rectangle passed

Set a breakpoint on '_pixman_log_error' to debug

(opencpn:2): Gtk-CRITICAL **...

Those are non critical and expected issues and do not affect performance.

I have opened a new thread to try to fix the Avnav issue: https://forum.openmarine.net/showthread.php?tid=4063
