Re: missing message and query

Hi, Clarence.

I found the cause of your issue of no Message or Query menus. This is not a bug; it is a feature when your YAAC instance is not configured to be able to _transmit_ any APRS packets (including message or query packets). YAAC does not present you with menu choices that can't work; either the menu choices are not included or they are disabled. And there are no menu choices on either of those menus that don't require a working transmit port.

To "fix" this, you need to configure and enable a port with transmit capability, such as a Serial_TNC or AGWPE port for RF, or an APRS-IS port with a valid passcode; in either case, you have to enable transmitting on the port.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for getting back to me Andrew.? The operating system is the Bookworm on the Raspberry Pi.? YAAC was working fine with Direwolf.? I saw that there was an update for YAAC so I downloaded and when asked to install I did.? I don’t remember the version but the date was October 2024.

?

Well, I decided to install everything from scratch in case it was a Raspbery Pi update that was causing the problem. ?With a fresh OS, Direwolf and the last YAAC.zip that I downloaded March of 2024, I should be fine.? All that worked fine before.

?

I do thank you for getting back to me and for the various things to look at to trouble shoot YAAC.

You'll have to provide a few more details for me to help you with your problem.

?

1. Which latest version of YAAC (the beta build number and date)? If you still have the Help menu, the About choice on it will tell you.

?

2. What operating system (Microsoft Windows, Linux, etc.) are you running? What version of it (Windows 11, Ubuntu 20, etc.)? What CPU architecture (Intel or ARM)?

?

3. What version of the Java runtime are you using (8, 11, 17, 21, 22, 23, 24)?

?

4. Do you have any transmit-capable ports in your YAAC configuration? Note that the Message and Query menus are useless if you have no path to send the message or query.

?

5. When running YAAC from a terminal session, are there any exception stack traces? If so, please send the YAAC.out file from your configured logdir.

?

Remember, I can't look over your shoulder and see your screen.
