Hi!
After an incredibly long beta phase, I have finally released version
v0.09 of
FOSHKplugin.
In addition to many bug fixes and optimisations as well as necessary adjustments for compatibility with new stations (GW1100, GW2000, WS1900) and sensors (WN34, WN35, WS90, AQIN), there is now also support for APRS/CWOP and, as a "killing" feature, the possibility of making any contents of fields available to other fields (FWD_REMAP).
The installation routine has also been significantly improved and FOSHKplugin has been made more error-tolerant overall - many "usual" problems during configuration are now automatically bypassed.
Furthermore, the improved sunshine hours calculation should now provide far more realistic values and it should now be even easier to run different instances of FOSHKplugin in parallel.
Have a look at the "Version History"
here for a complete list of changes and improvements.
I recommend all users of FOSHKplugin (including beta testers) to update to this version. On the other hand, if your current version works without problems and you have no need for the new possibilities, you can of course stay with the previous version. It only makes it more difficult to get help if problems arise.
To upgrade:
Change via ssh to the directory in which FOSHKplugin is running - according to my recommendations, it could be /opt/FOSHKplugin.
If you run FOSHKplugin as root, you can do the following commands without sudo - if you run FOSHKplugin in a certain user context, the specification of that user would be important so that the permissions are correct:
Code: [Select]
sudo -u username ./generic-FOSHKplugin-install.sh -upgrade
Let me know if there're any problems or you need some explanations of the new functions. Most things should already be described on the website.
For first time (or parallel) installation just use this
link and the common installation procedure.
LoxBerry users should download and install
this version the usual LoxBerry-installation-way instead.
Have fun!
Regards, Oliver
