Updating live installation?


Chris Wilson
 

04 January 2022


Newbie question, I havve been running the wsprdaemon for a long time but never updatd it, can I update a running, live installation remotely please? If so are there some idiot proof instructions anywhere please? I can log in the the pi OK remotely.

Thanks and as healthy and happy a New Year as the situation allows :)

Here is how I would upgrade a v 2.x installation to v2.10k, ssh to the server, then:

cd ~/wsprdaemon/
./wsprdaemon.sh -z
git pull
./wsprdaemon.sh -a

Rob,

How to I check the cache? My system hasn't uploaded spots since 1308Z this morning.

Hello Rob,

Tuesday, January 4, 2022

OK, many thanks for the instructions, one thing though, how do I tell if the version I am running is a V2.* one, remotely please Rob?

Did you ever manage to put an option in for no own call decodes?

Thanks for the great software and all the best from England.

./wsprdaemon.sh -V   (that is a capital 'V') will display the version number.

I'll put a 'no same call' option in WD V3.0, but I think it is useful so I won't make it the default.
wspnet.org drops such calls, but the wsprdaemon extend spots database keeps them.

Hello Rob,

I am getting this response, apologies Linux is a mystery to me....

pi@raspberrypi:/home/chris/wsprdaemon $ git pull
fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

Hi Chris,

No apologies are needed.  Your installation must not have been from executing 'git clone ....', so your ~/wsprdaemon directory has no 'git' information in it.
Here is how I would install v2.10k while preserving the existing config file:

cd ~/wsprdaemon/
./wsprdaemon.sh -z
cd ~
mv  ~/wsprdaemon ~/wsprdaemon.save
cp ~/wsprdaemon.save/wsprdaemon.conf  ~/wsprdaemon/wsprdaemon.conf  
cd ~/wsprdaemon/
./wsprdaemon.sh -a

Rob
