  • Great plug-in but is there a way to change where it looks for the stalker.conf file other than the home dir. I switch between several images so would like to store it on the hdd drive so when it is changed it is changed for all the images I used instead of each having its own file?

    Thanks in advance

  • Well, save the file stalker.conf where you want and just make symlink (symbolic link) to this file in the /home directory.

    I know you probably think I should figure this out myself but I am tearing my hair out as I cannot get it to work. I have copied the stalker.conf file to

    hdd/playlists/ and have tried to create the link as

    ln -s root/home/stalker.txt /hdd/playlists stalker.conf - get stalker.conf exists

    Or

    ln -s hdd/playlists stalker.conf root/home/stalker.txt - get root/home/stalker.txt no such file or directory


    Could you please show how to to make the symlink or perhaps someone else would not mind stepping in. Sorry if I seem stupid but am 66 years old and know nothing about python programming.

  • It's very easy: :winking face:


    first you give the command what you want to do, i.e. ln -sf

    where ln is a command to create a link

    -s is a parameter to create a symbolic link

    -f is a parameter to overwrite a file that already exists in the given directory


    then you enter the folder and which file should be used for the symlink - in your case

    /hdd/playlist/stalker.txt


    and where should this file be saved and what should it be called - in your case

    /home/stalker.conf


    and when you combine it all you will you get one command


    Code
    ln -sf /hdd/playlist/stalker.txt /home/stalker.conf

    Nosce te ipsum.

  • - just check/compare whether the file /home/stalker.conf has the same information as in /hdd/playlist/stalker.txt


    - check if the data is in the correct format as required by the Multi-Stalker plugin


    pattern:

    Code
    portal 0 http://localhost:8080/c/?mac=00:00:00:00:00:00
    portal 2 http://localhost:8080/c/?mac=00:00:00:00:00:00
    portal 3 http://localhost:8080/c/?mac=00:00:00:00:00:00
    portal 4 http://localhost:8080/c/?mac=00:00:00:00:00:00
    portal 5 http://localhost:8080/c/?mac=00:00:00:00:00:00


    Still a little help, if you don't know how to update the list of portals displayed in the plugin, you can try:


    When you are in the plugin, in the old list of Portals, hold down the yellow button (Reset all Portals) for a long time to delete the entire old list.

    The system will ask you if you want to delete everything, and you confirm Yes.

    t1.jpg


    You will get a clean list.

    t2.jpg


    Then by pressing the Blue button and confirming Yes to the question whether you want to Install a new config

    t4.jpg


    You get your new list.

    Don't forget to Save the new list by pressing the green button !


    And finally, learn to use this plugin Multi-Stalker. :smiling face:

  • I have copied the stalker.conf file to hdd/playlists.

    The format is correct in both files and if I run multi stalker and load the portals it populates correctly.


    Now I run

    ln -sf /hdd/playlists/stalker.conf /home/stalker.conf


    The conf file in hdd/playlists is the same format as it was, however the conf file in the home folder now gives the Failed to read error


    If I open Filecommander I can see the file but if I try to select it I get a ‘The Directory/File no longer exists’ message, see attached screenshots. If I ftp to the box from my MacBook Pro and go to the home dir the stalker.conf file cannot be seen.

    I do already use Multi Stalker and have numerous addresses added that all work as expected, it is only since trying to add this symlink that I have had ask for help.

  • Delete the /home/stalker.conf file


    write him an command

    Code
    ln -sf /media/hdd/playlist/stalker.txt /home/stalker.conf

    I see that you have a SEAGATE ST500LT012 disk and you have it in /media mounted not as HDD but as ST500LT012-1DG14, so you can try to use the path /media/ST500LT012-1DG14/playlist/stalker.txt instead of /media/hdd/playlist/stalker.txt


    Otherwise try it too :

    Code
    ln -sf /media/ST500LT012-1DG14/playlist/stalker.txt /home/stalker.conf


    So you have to find out the exact path yourself, as your system actually shows it to you !

  • Tried both commands with the same result of Failed to read…….

    The 2nd command also created the stalker file in home but as said same result.

    Probably just as easy for me to leave it as is and copy it between images. Would love to be able to fix it but do not want to take up more of your time. Thanks
