I have had a reoccurring issue where the container will just stop.

logs says

"send - failed to send 12 + 88 bytes in mode 0, code -1: Broken pipe"

" *** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated\n","stream":"stdout","time":"2023-07-17T12:16:03.9714032Z"

Got the same thing happen to my container like 1 or 2 times per month. Was to lazy (until now, see below) to get a workaround for that could be a shell script that once per day scrambles the docker log of the container and if the word terminated is found it restarts the container.

Until now (if thats enough for your problem solving): I've setup an offline notification (within flightradar24.com click on "My datasharing" and "Show statistics" where you can find a little switch to turn on "OFFLINE EMAIL". At least this way I get noticed that my fr24feed needs a restart.

Here is my shell script:
 

#!/bin/bash

# Define the name of your Docker container
CONTAINER_NAME="FR24FEED"

# Run the 'docker logs' command to fetch the container's logs
LOGS=$(docker logs "$CONTAINER_NAME" 2>&1)

# Define the regex pattern to search for
SEARCH_PATTERN="terminated"

# Use grep to search for the pattern in the logs
if [[ $LOGS =~ $SEARCH_PATTERN ]]; then
    echo "The word 'terminated' was found in the logs."

    # Restart the Docker container
    echo "Restarting the container..."
    docker restart "$CONTAINER_NAME"

    # You can also add additional actions or notifications here if needed
else
    echo "The word 'terminated' was not found in the logs."
fi

Don't forget to make it executable: chmod +x yourscript.sh
That could be run nightly with cronjob (crontab -e) or more modern with systemd timers.

New to this and would like to use it to contribute FR24. Will this work or is there a newer one that would be compatible this docker image? I prefer plug and play type. I see that this was manufactured in 2014 and recommended earlier in this post in 2019..:

Well I switched to Proxmox in the meantime. Using another docker container that you UnRaid Guys could use of course too. Here is my docker-compose.yml
I am using an DVB-T stick connected to usb:

services:
    fr24feed:
        container_name: fr24feed
        restart: always
        devices:
            - /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb
        ports:
            - 8754:8754
        image: liggy1/fr24feed
        command: --fr24key=abcdefgh1234566

It can be that simple. Works like a charm

i have a rtl sdr v3, it works right away, i needed to have the official drivers so to enable bias tee, i did it by following a guide to clone a docker and create your custom one. so far it is perfect.

I’ve since moved on to using a turnkey VM image from here https://adsb.im/home
