I've installed FTS following the instructions at https://freetakteam.github.io/FreeTAKServer-User-Docs/Installation/Linux/1_Install/

on the Configure and Run step, I enter sudo python3 -m FreeTAKServer.controllers.services.FTS as instructed, but I see no wizard. Instead, all I see is a stream of messages saying that FTS is running and recieving no messages. I checked and there is no yaml file generated (screenshot below).

Followed AWS instructions but get this error (see image) when running the .FTS

From fresh install, multiple times.

Have tried adding IPs to config files.

create new admin repo
export project once per week

I'm installing FTS on Windows following your tutorial.
I installed Python in C:\Software\python.....etc.

After the installation has finished the services need to be configured.
Configure the FreeTakServer by editing the \FreeTAKServer\core\configuration\MainConfig.py file.
Path examples: * native Windows install: C:\Software\python\Lib\site-packages\FreeTAKServer\core\configuration\MainConfig.py * conda env named tak: C:\Users\user\micromamba\envs\tak\Lib\site-packages\FreeTAKServer\core\configuration\MainConfig.py
Configure the FreeTAKServer-UI by editing the \FreeTAKServer-UI\config.py file.
Path examples: * native Windows install: C:\Software\python\Lib\site-packages\FreeTAKServer-UI\config.py * conda env named tak: C:\Users\user\micromamba\envs\tak\Lib\site-packages\FreeTAKServer-UI\config.py

That makes NO sense. In both config files, there is no single "path" variable. There are MANY "paths". Am I modifying a path variable to point the script at ITSELF? Am I specifying the parent directory that everything shall derive from? If so, how far up the ladder am I going: the Python directory, site packages directory, or the FreeTAKServer folder, or the configuration folder?

When I run the FTS command, it returns "failed to create the fts persistence directory at /opt/fts with error: [WinError 3] The system cannot find the path specified: '/opt/fts'"
Obviously this has to do with not properly specifying some path.

Testing of the video-server requires some video source.
The TAK ICU appears to not be readily available.
Write documentation about using other tools, i.e. Larix Broadcaster and ffmpeg.

Hardware: Raspberry Pi 4b- 8g
OS: Ubuntu Server 22.04 lts
Program: rtsp-simple-server

--------------When trying to accomplish Auto start on system startup/reboot, Solution:
For the .service file, you will need to add and edit the following:

[Unit]
Description=rtsp-simple-server
After=network-online.target
Wants=netowrk-online.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/rtsp-simple-server /usr/local/etc/rtsp-simple-server.yml

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

-------------To build the auto start file, the Solution:
The root user is needed--- sudo -i

Build your file:
---crontab -e (if this is new, select 1 when prompted)

------at the end of the file add the 3 @ lines

@reboot sudo systemctl enable rtsp-simple-server &

@reboot sudo systemctl stop rtsp-simple-server &

@reboot nohup sudo rtsp-simple-server &

Public instance
We support a public instance of FTS.
download the configuration here <-----------------
use the Import manager in ATAK to import the configuration

Need to update all FTS documentation to reflect mediamtx, now that rtsp-simple-server has been renamed.

The Linux installation is out-of-date.

it just shows this

and nothing else

Hi there
Thank you making this available for free.
I have one issue.
I ran the Zero Touch deployment and all went well.
When I try login using the default admin and password . the system comes up with txt ans says connection refused.
Connection refused.docx

On the FTS Doc Home page, recommend adding something like the following above the "Community" section (some of these may be incorrect based on my understanding):

FreeTAKServer adds the following capabilities to a TAK network:

1. Data Package upload and retrieval
2. Image transfer and storage
3. COT recording in a database
4. ExCheck plugin functionality (only available to users with takmaps.com access)
5. SSL Encryption for using a server without a VPN

Use of some of these features can be found in the ATAK User Manual.

The following features are planned, but not implemented as of Release 1.3:

1. Web Plugin features
2. Federation Service (Connecting two or more FTS instances)
3. Plugin System
4. Data Sync

The roadmap can be found here: FreeTAKTeam/FreeTakServer#25

The Zero Touch Installer is fine for new installations.
Upgrading existing installations is also important.
Add an Upgrade section which describes how to upgrade each element individually.
This can probably be accomplished by improving the Manual installation section.

Services

• upgrade NodeRed
• upgrade FTS
• upgrade FTS-UI
• upgrade Video Server
• upgrade Chat Server
• upgrade WebMap

https://github.com/FreeTAKTeam/FreeTAKServer-User-Docs/tree/main/docs/docs/Installation/RaspberryPie)/Installation.md makes reference to a link to download the proper install of ubuntu..

"need to start with new install of ubuntu 20.04 server for pi 64 from: https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/20.04.3/release/ubuntu-20.04.3-preinstalled-server-arm64+raspi.img.xz"

This link is broken, and searching on ubuntu for 20.04.3 only leads to V20.04.4 instead. I don't know if this affects the function of the easy_install.sh script, however I've been unable to login to the UI without errors. This may be a separate problem, or it may be a difference in versions.

The Docker Installation Method directs users to a Dockerhub Registry whose images haven't been updated in ~2 years and whose source code has been archived: The former Docker image for FreeTAKServer, this repo is now archived. Please use the FTS rpository to get the current Container.
