Is your program /usr/sbin/ambeserver or AMBEserver? Whichever it is try executing on command line preceded by sudo sudo ambeserver -i /dev/ttyAMA0

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo systemctl status ambeserver@ttyAMA0 ● ambeserver@... - DV3000 Daemon Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/ambeserver@.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

Ooops -- do it this way sudo usermod -G tty,dialout,gpio,audio,opendv opendv sudo grep opendv /etc/passwd /etc/group -- John D. Hays Edmonds, WA K7VE

Try adding opendv to 'tty' group, I also forgot to add opendv to other groups sudo usermod -G tty opendv sudo usermod -G dialout opendv sudo usermod -G gpio opendv sudo usermod -G audio opendv And

$ sudo grep opendv /etc/group opendv:x:1001: $ sudo grep opendv /etc/passwd opendv:x:1001:1001::/home/opendv:/bin/false $ ls -l /dev/ttyAMA0 crw--w---- 1 root tty 204, 64 Mar 12 16:14

That would suggest that ttyAMA0 is the correct one. (3B+ would be different) Send me the output of these commands: sudo grep opendv /etc/group sudo grep opendv /etc/passwd ls -l /dev/ttyAMA0 sudo

Pi B+ v1.2 and the latest Stretch.

Which model Raspberry pi and OS?

John, Done. The following is the result after issuing “sudo systemctl status ambeserver@ttyAMA0” I don’t know what the heck I’m looking at! Mike WM4B ● ambeserver@... -

Dynamic DNS (like noip.com) is fine if your address doesn't change during a session (and your app can take a DNS name). Otherwise, you could run something like openvpn on your VM and VPN to it from

Mike, Set up the opendv user: sudo useradd -s /bin/false opendv then sudo usermod -G dialout sudo usermod -G gpio sudo usermod -G audio In /etc/opendv create 3 files: ambeserver-ttyAMA0.conf

When you get it figured out, I hope you can document it; I'm heading in the same direction if I can get AMBEServer loaded and running. Mike WM4B

Hi John. I dont have a static ip from my internet provider but i plan to use my home noip.com account which is running in my fibre router and have a static ip assigned to the Pi on my home network, so

AMBEserver can run over networking, either LAN or Internet. If you want to access it from a VM at a remote location, you will need to know the public IP address at home and forward the UDP port to

While this thread is running i might as well ask, how easy or hard is it to have the Pi with PiDV board here at home running AMBEServer which in turn is linked to my Debian server VM connected to an

Almost there

John, You seriously underestimate my ability to confuse myself! I did: wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dl5di/OpenDV/master/DummyRepeater/DV3000/AMBEserver.c gcc -o AMBEserver AMBEserver.c sudo

Simple - except when it's not. It appears that those directions are for the DVThumb, not my PiDV (DV3000). I guess this will work if I do the following: $ sudo nano /boot/config.txt

I'll give it a try, but I'm NOT running a DVThumb. I have the DV3000 (PiDV) attached to the GPIO headers. I appreciate the help. It's frustrating for a newbie to have to chase problems with
