Steps for running dsm on home-made G2 dstar gateways with no ICOM hardware/software.
1) Since you are not installing any ICOM hardware/software you must create the following directories so dsm can run properly /opt/products/dstar/dstar_gw/dsgwd /opt/products/dstar/dstar_gw/dsipsvd Under folder /opt/products/dstar/dstar_gw/dsgwd place a copy of dsgwd.conf and edit it to reflect your own dstar repeater Under folder /opt/products/dstar/dstar_gw/dsipsvd place copy of dsipsvd.conf and edit it to reflect your own dstar repeater. ------------------------------------------------------ 2) download dsm_installer_g2 script. 3) Since I downloaded j2se from SUN about a year ago and had it installed under /usr/bin/jdk1.6.0_07 folder, I went to /opt/products/dstar folder and created a symbolic link with this command. Executed this command from within /opt/products/dstar folder: ln -s /usr/bin/jdk1.6.0_07 j2se 4) I had to change the internal device eth1 in the dsm config files in the folder /opt/dstarmon, file dstarmonitor.properties since I do not use eth1, because I use another device as Internal device. 5) Executed dsm_installer_g2 6) That was it. From the dsm log: PacketCapture: loading native library jpcap.. ok 1 Aug 2009 19:16:47 GMT Outbound connection to DPRSGW-1.dstarusers.org:14580 Connected 1 Aug 2009 19:16:50 GMT Connected to jdbc:mysql://dsm.dstarusers.org:3306/DSTAR2 so far so good. 6) Not sure if I have to register on some web site. ? 7) I created an OPEN SOURCE code as a replacement to dsm that captures packets from repeater but not decided yet where I will report the data. But for now I will leave dsm running until I decide where to report data from my own OPEN SOURCE packet capture. Scott
