Loosing Startup Link
Re: Loosing Startup Link
This has nothing to do with the reflector servers. We are all using different startup hosts and it still does it. Only just recently happened.
Re: Loosing Startup Link
I have been asked to NOT pre-resolve all the hosts in the YSF list to IP addresses on the update server, in order to help users host YSF hosts on dynamic addresses.
I don't believe that this is a good idea, and will make for un-relyable services, but the argument is that in the spirit of ham and trying stuff out, I should support those hosts on dynamic connections.
So I made the change, and here we are with hosts already being a problem;
KE7FNS let me know that you guys are suffering since this change, I have now added some extra code to the generation for this file, if the host is not resolvable it will be removed from the host file until the resolution works - this should stop this issue from happening any more.

Re: Loosing Startup Link
OK, thank you, but since the last few days, my pi-star has been running irregularly, and it takes longer to connect to the server,often no link, I don't know what's wrong?
Re: Loosing Startup Link
MW0MWZ and KE7FNS,
Thank you both for taking the time to look into this issue and applying a fix. I ran an update this morning and rebooted my hotspot. Upon reboot it connected to my startup reflector as it normally does. I will keep an eye on it today to make sure it stays connected.
Thank you again for all that you contribute to this hobby.

Re: Loosing Startup Link
Appears to be solid here as well. Thanks Andy and Jason!
Re: Loosing Startup Link
Update:
My hotspot dropped the link again and would not re-link using the admin panel. A reboot brought the link backup, but it seems that the issue is still present.

Re: Loosing Startup Link
dropped the link again~
Re: Loosing Startup Link
I have the same issue using DMR2YSF along with DMRGAteway, and when the hotspot connects to the host no audio is passed when I transmit, but receive works fine, I even reset to factory settings and reconfigured, no luck, so for now i can only listen.

Re: Loosing Startup Link
Update -
I tried setting the reload value to 1440 this morning, but it automatically reverts to 60. I have tried this a couple of times and the setting reverts back to its original value. The reflector does not stay linked and still drops. I am no longer able to re-link from the admin screen. Rebooting will eventually re-link, but then it drops back off within the hour.

Re: Loosing Startup Link
Odd. I set mine to 1440 yesterday, and it sticks. Says 1440 this morning, even after a reboot. Been rock solid since yesterday, no drops. I know this is not much help - you did apply the change when you set it to 1440?
