Hmm, it looks like you're having an issue with installing curl or its dependencies.

Which OpenWRT version are you using? Please show me the output of:

Looks like it's working now... weird...

StarIndigo · April 13, 2025, 1:47pm

thanks for the help

StarIndigo · April 13, 2025, 1:54pm

@Hudra It says service not running and i have it enabled

StarIndigo · April 13, 2025, 1:59pm

nothing is showing up on the map when the game is running only the green circle

Hudra · April 13, 2025, 2:23pm

What happens if you restart it?

service geomate restart

please also show me the output...

Did you follow the readme post-Installation steps? You have to geolocate once:

...and if there are issues during startup, it’s pretty clear why nothing is showing up on the map...

is 192.168.1.100 your gaming device?

StarIndigo · April 13, 2025, 2:27pm

yes 192.168.1.100 is my ps5

StarIndigo · April 13, 2025, 2:28pm

Geomate v1.1.1 Released – Flexible Update System & New Monitor Mode!

I'm excited to announce the release of Geomate v1.1.1!

Geomate didn’t have proper versioning until now, but with this update, it introduces the same flexible update system that @antonk developed for qosmate, along with several improvements to both the backend and the LuCI interface.

Key Features of the New Update System:

Flexible Updates: You can now update backend and frontend (luci-app-geomate) independently of each other.
Update Channels:
- release (default): Stable, tested versions.
- snapshot : Latest features directly from the main development branch.
- You can also target specific branches or commits.
Version Switching: Easy switching between channels or to specific versions.

The New Update Logic:

For most users, the release channel is sufficient for stable updates. Those who want to experiment can switch to the snapshot channel to test new features earlier – with the option to switch back at any time.

Basic Commands:

Update to the latest stable release (default channel):

/etc/init.d/geomate update

Check for available updates (without installing):

/etc/init.d/geomate check_version

Switch to snapshot channel and update:

/etc/init.d/geomate update -v snapshot

For more details check the README on Github.

Other Important Changes (Backend & LuCI Frontend):

geomate (Backend)

Monitor Mode: A new mode that only visualizes connections without blocking them (PR #3).

Full Changelog:

luci-app-geomate (Frontend)

Monitor Mode: Also selectable in the web interface – displays connections only, but doesn't block them - more on that in the readme
Enhanced Status Display: Clear display of operational mode (Monitor, Static, Dynamic) with color coding.
Version/Update Check: The UI displays backend and frontend versions, regularly checks for updates, and notifies when new versions are available.

Full Changelog:

The update from previous versions has been tested and should work.

To get the latest version initially, please run the installation again as described in the README. Your settings should remain intact.

To see the changes in the luci app, it might be necessary to clear your browser cache and restart it.

If you encounter any issues during the update process, please let me know or open an issue on GitHub!
