Hi. I do “sudo apt-get upgrade” and now not working Chirpstackv4.0 in the web interface. I put the command “sudo journalctl -f -n 100 -u chirpstack | grep ERROR” and see this:

And put the command “sudo systemctl status chirpstack.service” and see Active the service

I did this and resolved the problem:

sudo apt remove chirpstack
sudo apt install chirpstack

This moment chirpstackv4.0 and chirpstack-gateway-bridgev4.0 works well.

Thanks for all @brocaar

meta in rxpk and stat

If using the Semtech UDP Packet Forwarder backend, it is possible to expose
additional key / value metadata using an optional meta key in either the
rxpk or stat package. The value of meta must be an object with key (string)
/ value (string) data if present.

This feature would be great.
Buw how could we do it right?

I put as below in /lib/systemd/system/chirpstack-gateway-bridge.service
[Unit]
Description=ChirpStack Gateway Bridge
Documentation=https://www.chirpstack.io/
Wants=network-online.target
After=network-online.target

[Service]
User=gatewaybridge
Group=gatewaybridge
ExecStart=/usr/bin/chirpstack-gateway-bridge -c /etc/chirpstack-gateway-bridge/chirpstack-gateway-bridge.toml -c /etc/chirpstack-gateway-bridge/chirpstack-gateway-bridge-as923.toml
Restart=on-failure

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Alias=lora-gateway-bridge.service

Then I hit the error
chirpstack-gateway-bridge[341155]: time=“2023-01-27T10:43:10.195118872+07:00” level=fatal msg=“error loading config file” config=“&[/etc/chirpstack-gateway-bridge/chirpstack-gateway-bridge.toml /etc/chirpstack-gateway-bridge/chirpstack-gateway-bridge-as923.toml]” error=“While parsing config: toml: table general already exists”

It seems multiple toml file have same [general] section?
Thanks a lot.

This feature doesn’t mean that you can run the ChirpStack Gateway Bridge like multiple instances. It allows you to break the .toml file into multiple .toml files.
