Traccar doesn't start after update to 5.11

Daniel Hölder 2 years ago

Hi,
I just updated to Traccar 5.11. Everything seemed to work fine. No error messages.

xxx@RPi4-xxx:~$ sudo unzip traccar-linux-*.zip
Archive:  traccar-linux-64-latest.zip
  inflating: traccar.run
  inflating: README.txt
xxx@RPi4-xxx:~$ sudo ./traccar.run
Creating directory out
Verifying archive integrity...  100%   MD5 checksums are OK. All good.
Uncompressing traccar  100%
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/traccar.service → /etc/systemd/system/traccar.service.

A new /opt/traccar/ folder was created. I restored the traccar.xml.

After starting Traccar, nothing happens. No log file is created. No error message reported.

I don't know, how I can investigate what could be wrong.

Can somebody help me?

Most likely configuration error. Make sure your config file is a valid XML.

I uninstalled and installed newly as described here https://www.traccar.org/linux/

Without restoring my traccar.xml, so with the standard configuration. Same result.

Are you sure you're installing the right version? Don't you need ARM for RPi?

Thanks! I didn't!
Do I need the ARM64 or ARM?

You need to use the one that matches your system architecture.

Thanks for the quick help, Anton. That was the solution.
