SATNOGS network communication with satnogs-client

SatNOGS
1

Hello all,

I am looking for simple commands for the following;

  1. To confirm Satnogs network communication with the satnogs client.
  2. To confirm SATNOGS network communication with my Docker containers.
  3. To solve an error where the satnogs-client service stops immediately after it has been started.

I have tried to look for all these but in vain. My ground station has been down for 4 months now.

I appreciate any help offered.

Hi,
depending on the method/guide you followed, seeing the logs of a compose stack: docker compose logs -f --tail 50 -t
or if not compose docker logs -f --tail 50 -t satnogs_client or what the container was named.

ps. better to stay in one forum thread as it is easier to look at the history and not having to clarify several times.

Hi,
Thanks
Let me start from there.

Maybe how would you recommend i solve the error of the satnogs-client service stop immediately it is started if you run

sudo systemctl restart satnogs-client

Also you mentioned depending on the guide I followed? Would you recommmend a different guide or method for using Docker to run my SATNOGS operations on a UHF/VHF ground station that seems easier?

Thanks

Dockerized client and the host based systemd of the client is mutually exclusive, client under docker is not controlled via systemd in any of my guides. This just points to a big discrepancy what you are telling me or doing.
