Thank you to GolfCharlie and Claude Code for fixing the code to work with the newly changed FAA API! They have saved a lot of time. A new image has been created and will be uploaded today and available later tonight. If you don't want or need the image, you can visit https://github.com/markyharris/livesectional and incorporate the changes into your board now.

There has been another change to the FAA API which has again broke the map. We are currently working on this. Check back for fix. If you have the fix please post it. - Mark

Hi,

for some reason, the map suddenly stopped working. After an update 2 days ago it never left the rainbow phase. 

I rebooted it several times but no luck. I also can't get into the web control. Below is a copy of the log file.

Any idea how I can fix this? Or do I need to burn the image again?

Thanks!

Marty,

Yes, the server that holds update files is rejecting connection causing this. Here's a fix located here;

https://www.livesectional.com/community/raspberry-pi-questions/rpi-refuses-to-connect/#post-885

Also, we should have an updated image available to download by this weekend. EDIT: Image is available for download. But if you don't want to wait just follow the instructions in the above post. Let us know what happens. - Mark
