moderated FLDIGI refuses to function #fldigi #pi3
|
Byron Morgan, WE4SEL <byron.we4sel@...>
Running on rpi3b+, everything is current version (4.0.18). had similar problem after months of use with the 3.23 ver that is on the rpi app list, so i went through the build process to update. worked fine for a week or so. Now on starting fldigi, the hourglass shows, and it appears to be starting up, but nothing of the program ever displays, and after about 30 seconds the hourglass goes away, and all traces are gone from tasks (top). I'm fairly new to linux, so I'll be glad to provide further information but i don't know what's needed or what commands to retrieve the info. Would really like to be able to get it running again. flrig still runs fine. don't want to give up on the rpi to go back to windows for digital modes.
thanks for help.

Start fldigi from a terminal and post the results here. Ed

Here is everything from terminal window. It looks like it was expecting something else after stack trace, but after about 10 min nothing else showed up.
looks similar to the error from previous version, but i don't have an exact output from that, i do remember the fatal error and instructions at end, which led me to the updated version install.

Go to the /.fldigi directory and you should find the stacktrace.txt if it's there you will need to send that to Dave W1HKJ. Ed W3NR

i did, and through the add/remove software thing on raspbian.
the stacktrace is dated from a day or two before i did the manual build for the new version.

fldigi: /usr/local/bin/fldigi /usr/share/fldigi

so, it looks like it aught to be the updated version. i just don't understand linux well enough to know which way to start eating this elephant.

The reason you're getting the wrong version is the one residing
in /usr/share/fldigi - which needs to be deleted.
By the way, you need to use " which fldigi " to get the correct answer as to which one it's using. Ron W7HD On 1/12/19 12:52 PM, Byron Morgan,

Try this: ls /home/USERNAME/.fldigi/src
Where you replace USERNAME with your login name. -OR- cd ~/.fldigi/src ls -l Be sure to type exactly as shown! To be sure, copy and paste. Ron W7HD On 1/12/19 1:59 PM, Byron Morgan,

I’m just popping in and back out of this thread, but wanted to try to remove some your confusion. I’m not sure why Ron is looking in .fldigi, but normally there is no /src directory in /.fldigi. .fldigi is where fldigi puts it’s config files, logs, and a bunch of other things used in running fldigi, but the source directory that you get after compilation would not be there unless you uncompressed the original file in that location before you built fldigi. You need to remember where you uncompressed the original file you downloaded and then in that directory after compilation you will find the fldigi-4.0.18 directory that Ed is trying to help you find. If you uncompressed the file in the Home directory then what Ed has said will be were you will find it. The /src directory will be in the fldigi-4.0.18 directory. I hope this clears up the confusion. I’ll leave it to Ed etc. to help you solve the original problem. I’m not a linux Guru like Ed and Ron are. I just know what works on my Pi system. BTW, fldigi-4.0.18 works FB in my Raspberry Pi3.
73,
