FoxxMD Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 (edited) Application Name: shoginn-vrs Application Site: http://virtualradarserver.co.uk Github Repo: https://github.com/ShoGinn/virtualradarserver-docker Docker Hub: https://hub.docker.com/r/shoginn/vrs @ShoGinn <3 Template Repo: https://github.com/FoxxMD/unraid-docker-templates Overview Virtual Radar Server is an open-source .NET application used to overlay and track the real time position of aircraft on a map within a modern browser. VRS can receive aircraft data from a multitude of sources including ADS-B streams. Requirements A configuration directory (default mapped to /mnt/user/appdata/vrs) A port exposed for the web ui (default mapped to 8117) Optionally, if you want to see anything, you will need to configure at least one Receiver (data source). I highly recommend a cheap RTL-SDR usb device and shoginn-dump1090, available in Community Apps Usage (Setup) The Admin Interface can be accessed at http://IP:PORT/VirtualRadar/WebAdmin/Index.html Adding a Data Source (Receiver) Access the Admin Interface Navigate to Options => Receiver Locations Add a new Location with the Lat/Long of your data source Navigate to Options => Receivers Add a new Receiver and specify Location from the dropdown as the one added from above Use these settings if you are using shoginn-dump1090: Format: AVR or Beast Raw Feed | Address: [IP of dump1090] | Port: [Port of dump1090] Check "Send keep-alive packets" Make sure to hit Save at the bottom of the page! Your data source is now setup and should be feeding VRS. You can verify this by going to Connector Activity Log (located on the Admin Interface). Saving Default Client Settings (Map Location, etc.) Navigate to the Web UI for shoginn-vrs In the top-left corner navigate Menu => Options To set default Map Location On the General tab click "Set current location", then drag the marker to the desired center position on the map Set any other default settings in the Options window at this time, then close it In a new window navigate to http://IP:PORT/VirtualRadar/settings.html Click Export Settings Copy all of the text in the input box that appears In the Admin Interface navigate to Options => Initial Settings Paste the contents of the input box into the input box for Exported settings Save your changes at the bottom of the page Using VRS with a reverse proxy (nginx) Refer to this comment for how to setup VRS behind a reverse proxy.

PSYCHOPATHiO Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Thanks for all the dockers. I have all the Shoginns installed & they are all working perfectly. although shoginn-flightradar24 wouldn't start with the MLAT enabled. Quote Link to comment
FoxxMD Posted January 18, 2020 Author Share Posted January 18, 2020 @PSYCHOPATHiO ive mentioned that issue in the support thread! In the docker settings set mlat and mlat w/o gps to no. Quote Link to comment

butch2k Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Hi, i got an issue with silhouettes dissapearing since the latest update, i just got flight traces and callsign/Reg/alt box, everything was working perfectly before. Any idea where it might comes from ? Quote Link to comment
ShoGinn Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Check your admin ui and make sure that "/opt/vrs/Flags/" and "/opt/vrs/Silhouettes" are in there But my guess is you are mentioning the markers and plane icons on the map. I don't run VRS anymore (moved to modes mixer) but I spun up my old container and noticed the problem. Not sure if its a Mono thing (I use latest..) so I'll revert back to an older Mono and see if that changes anything! Quote Link to comment
ShoGinn Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Fixed it.. went back to Mono 6.0.. works perfect now Quote Link to comment
butch2k Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Yes perfect ! Thanks a lot. Quote Link to comment
butch2k Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 (edited) Looks like i spoke too fast, curiously some a/c are still missing markers. That did not happen before. Edit: if i click at where the a/c is supposed to be, the selected yellow marker appears along with alt line and dissapear again if i click elsewhere. It might be related to some picture handling issue as the a/c pictures (those top right) which had also dissapeared are back. I did a quick check the same PNG could be perfectly fine for an a/c but not for another one, only change is the rotation. No a/c marker, just a blank png: images/web-markers/top/Wdth-40/Hght-112/Rotate-330/Alt-70/CenX-20/WTC-Medium-2-Jet.png a/c marker as usual: images/web-markers/top/Wdth-40/Hght-112/Rotate-200/Alt-70/CenX-20/WTC-Medium-2-Jet.png in the log: libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile libpng warning: iCCP: cHRM chunk does not match sRGB might be an issue with incorrect pngs having troubles being handled by an updated libpng.

Wetterchen Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Hi, for a few days I have had the problem that the plane pictures of a plane are no longer displayed. If I click on one of the not loaded images, I get a "Bad Request - Invalid Host" message. How could i solve the problem? i Quote Link to comment
PSYCHOPATHiO Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I have an issue, not sure if its the docker or it might be from my firewall. I set the Location to my coordinates exactly but when i check it I find my self in the middle of the UK, I tried messing with it tried different geo locators to my exact location but nothing did work. My firewall is pfSense with pfBlockerng package set to paranoia mode lol, blocking a lot of IP & DNS lists from accessing the network. my site is https://fr.sykorp.com & coordinates set to 24.78743960581413, 46.77754885516819 Quote Link to comment
SeattleBandit Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 ok perhaps a bonehead question... but what are the defaults admin login creds? or do i need to create a admin login Quote Link to comment
SeattleBandit Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) frustratingly - i've fiddled with it - tried creating a admin profile from within the docker console - said admin already existed, so i created my own but now i can't even load the WebAdmin page so i see in the logs where it creates the webadmin profile ... great ... but i am unable to access the webadmin panel from my computer - granted i am accessing ti via a remote machine since my unraid server is headless.... would that be the issue?

The Admin Interface can be accessed at http://IP:PORT/VirtualRadar/WebAdmin/Index.html did u try admin admin or admin password, cant remember if it was anything else. Quote Link to comment

EDIT: looks like unraid doesn't allow you to tunnel traffic EDIT: follow this fellow's guide - (https://forum.virtualradarserver.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=1186) restarted my container with no luck Edited March 21, 2020 by SeattleBandit Quote Link to comment

Not exactly - I read that it locks down incoming connection requests to localhost or loopback onlySince my unraid server is headless - I tried to tunnel my traffic through a ssh connection to my unraid server ... But apparently unraid doesn't allow that So I went to my garage connected a monitor and keyboard - booted to gui mode - still no dice on connecting to webadminIt's handshaking and prompting for my log in creds when I hit the admin portal but when I plug in the valid creds it's craps out (404) regardless of hitting it from the localhost or another box on the network.I was poking around the webadmin folder inside the docker looking to see if I could edit the configs manually but none of the xml or json (I forget which) I spotted did the trick.I'm debating switching to flightaware or flight24 but those require subscriptions and I don't know if I can set those to show just what I'm picking upSent from my GM1917 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment
PSYCHOPATHiO Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) @SeattleBandit I'm not really sure what your trying to achieve here, if your trying to access it locally just use the the IP assigned to the docker then you can access the admin interfaces & change the settings from there. I got mine up & running in minutes with a reverse proxy pointing to it, I also can access the admin panel from the internet. https://fr.sykorp.com/ https://fr.sykorp.com/VirtualRadar/WebAdmin/Index.html Edited March 22, 2020 by PSYCHOPATHiO Quote Link to comment
SeattleBandit Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 thats just it - the admin interface isn't loading - hitting it locally or from another computer on the network. I've been looking for the webadmin logs to see if i can catch a clue but haven't had much luck yet. Quote Link to comment
PSYCHOPATHiO Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 try removing the docker & cleaning the appdata files & reinstall it again. Quote Link to comment
SeattleBandit Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 try removing the docker & cleaning the appdata files & reinstall it again.Did that - it saved my location data though so I'm not sure I scrubbed it allSent from my GM1917 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment
PSYCHOPATHiO Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 @FoxxMD Maps are no longer showing under firefox, it workes wit MS edge, I think firefox latest update broke it or something. Also location is not working if i set my location it just points me to the UK., I tried every way possible to set it up but ends up the same. Quote Link to comment
