    Hi,

    I am having trouble starting the packet forwarder using the web interface.
    the status is always no matter how many times i restart or save and restart. Can someone help me out with this issue?

    Hi,

    You could try accessing the Conduit via SSH and try the following instructions:

    1) To see why the packet forwarder is not getting started, look at output of forwarder when run from the command line:

    # /etc/init.d/lora-network-server stop
    # cd /var/run/lora/1/
    # ./lora_pkt_fwd

    See troubleshooting guide in Downloads on this page.

    2) Try to manually reload the FPGA firmware. If this is not functioning as shown below, then there is a hardware issue:

    # mts-io-sysfs store lora/creset 0
    # mts-io-sysfs show lora/cdone
    0 <<-- Expected output # mts-io-sysfs store lora/creset 1 # mts-io-sysfs show lora/cdone 1 <<-- Expected output

    I tried changing the global_config.json file but still getting the same erroe.Can you please help me out with this?

    #29792

    I used sudo and was able to start the concentrator manually.

    sudo ./lora_pkt_fwd

    I have installed LoRa gateway bridge in my system and to make sure the packet forwarder send data to the bridge i used the below command

    sudo tcpdump -AUq port 1700

    but no response. I followed the below link for trouble shooting
