Re: Cannot get P25Reflector installed

Skyler Fennell
 

Thank you very much Steve for your quick response. So can you clarify if below is correct on what I need to change, say I want to host a private reflector on node number 12345 

I'm just not sure what all the different ports mean as far as just a standalone reflector not bridging to anything. I totally understand Bridging P25 to something such as analog_bridge, but I'm curious on where P25Gateway plays in on the reflector.

P25Reflector.ini : Nothing to change, just the network port I want to run it on, leaving this as 41000
P25Gateway.ini [General]

Callsign= Change this to my callsign

RptAddress=127.0.0.1 -- Keeping this the same because reflector running locally

RptPort=32010 -- Not sure on this port

LocalPort=42020 -- Change this to Same network port as p25Reflector ????


[Network]

Port=42010 -- Don't know what to change this to

HostsFile1=./P25Hosts.txt

HostsFile2=./private/P25Hosts.txt

ReloadTime=60

ParrotAddress=127.0.0.1

ParrotPort=42011

# Startup=10100

InactivityTimeout=10

Debug=0


MMDVM_BRIDGE INI FILE

[P25 Network]

Enable=0

GatewayAddress=127.0.0.1

GatewayPort=42020  -- Same as Local port on P25Gateway.ini?? 

LocalPort=32010  -- Same as RptPort on P25Gateway.ini??

Debug=1

So,
Yes, you need P25Gateway with MMDVM_Bridge. When you run the Reflector in Daemon mode it does not run as root. If I remember it want to run as user mmdvmuser. mmdvmuser does not have rights in the /var/log/mmdvm directory.
You should be able to test by moving the log dir to /tmp.

I am currently not running P25Gateway. Do I need to run this to run the reflector?

When Daemon is set to 0, I don't get the log error message anymore and it seems to run fine. 

Also, I noticed on line 155 here, they make the error say P25Gateway for the log file failing even on p25reflector.

So, I see you running P25Reflector but the error is from the Gateway

Please post the error.

The log directory does exist. I have it set to 
/var/log/mmdvm in P25Reflector.ini and this definitely exists because other programs like MMDVM_Bridge are successfully writing logs here. I still get the error that it is unable to open the log file ...

Create the log directory pointed to in P25Reflector.ini and retest.

I am attempting to get P25Reflector working on my Debian Linux VPS Machine. I have the DVSwitch repository installed on the box.

When I try to install the reflector through apt-get, I cannot run the file and I get a libsdc dependency error
 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.21' not found (required by ./P25Gateway)
I have tried to fix the GLIBCXX error by upgrading all packages but I cannot get it to work and it shows the latest version as 3.4.20.

When I try to install the reflector from the source code, it will not even start up and claims it cannot open the log file. The directory does exist.
root@stn3764:/opt/P25Clients/P25Reflector# P25Gateway: unable to open the log file


I am running Debian on Kernel 3.16.0-4-amd64 and cannot update the Kernel, which seems to be a recommendation to fix the GLIBXX error. Lat time I updated the kernel, I broke asterisk, which I am also running on the server. 

Let me know what the next is step I can to try to get P25Reflector working on my machine.

Thank You,
