Re: Pat Menu - Telnet - "Invalid or missing target callsign" and "Grid square not set in Pat configure" #pat-mail


 

The very tip drop down where it says select alias. As I recall you have to select telnet there and it will fill everything else out. From your picture, it looks like you did not do that.

This isn't a Pat Menu issue but is something between the pat config file and the browser. We took Pat Menu out of the equation. Let's try to move your config file out of the way and grab a known good one to eliminate that possibility. Pay attention to the "." in some of the following commands. Run the following:
cd /home/pi/.config/pat/
mv config.json config.json.bkup
wget
sudo systemctl restart pat@pi
I did the above and edited the config file (using pat configure) to update my call sign, Winlink password, grid square and change the port. I restarted pat (sudo systemctl restart pat@pi) againso that pat would use the modified port, and tried a telnet connection. The fields still did not populated correctly:



My RMS list is set to update at 0800 hrs every day. Since this telnet issue began, I've seen the message "Grid square not set in Pat configure" displayed in Conky. I'm assuming the two problems are related. If I update the RMS list from the menu item, it updates correctly and no error message is displayed.

The only things that have changed recently, were standard OS updates (sudo apt-update? and? sudo apt upgrade) BAP updates (updating those apps which were listed as having an update available).
