Evolve Vara trouble.


 

I'm running an Evolve with Linux Mint and gone through all the install that Jason has on YouTube and all works well except VARA for Winlink. When I start the VARA modem I get the message "Listener varahf failed: vara initialization failed: couldn't connect to VARA command port: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:8300: connect: connection refused" I have done research and looked through my system put can't find a solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Double check that the data port set in VARA matches the port set in the Pat Config file.

I guess I¡¯m missing something. I¡¯ve tried different port numbers but I guess I can¡¯t figure out where the port number is in pat config. Appreciate and help.?


 

The port numbers for VARAHF as well as other protocols are in the ~/.config/pat/config.json? file. ?The port number are in the respective protocol sections.? Pay careful attention to the file format and punctuation as it is critical.? There should be VARA HF and FM sections.


 


Thank you for the help! everything is up and running and a test email worked perfectly.
