Acarsdeco2 rpi3 and virtualradar connection error

[hm_krause]

Hello
sorry for my bad english
I have a problem with virtualradar and acarsdeco2 on a raspberry pi3 with stretch.
I always get the message:
receiver exception "Exeption caught by connector: connection refused.
I have set the configuration like this:
virtual radar receiver:
AVR or Beast Raw Feed
network
Address 127.0.0.1
port 30005
Here I tried 30001, 30002, 30003, 31001

acarsdeco2:
./acarsdeco2 --gain 48.0 --freq 13150000 --http-port 8686 --vrs-url http://127.0.0.1:8080

acarsdeco2 receives data!
the problem is that the vrs server does not connect!
I hope someone can help me

I just tried and check all formats and no connections cannot be made.

In VRS settings, 127.0.0.1 is correct if both the VRS and AcarSDeco2 are running on same computer.

If the VRS and AcarSDeco2 are on different machines, then instead of 127.0.0.1, use local IP of that computer which is running AcarSDeco2.

(1) Add this to AcarSDeco2 parameters:

--outServer ad2:30008
Sets TCP server for output data on port 30008

(2) In VRS set
port 30008

NOTE:
(1) In these settings I have used Local IP as follows. You have to use IP pertaining to your setup.

IP of Windows desktop running VRS = 192.168.0.10

IP of Pi running ModeSDeco2 = 192.168.0.22


(2) Please see below the attached screenshot for VRS settings.

(3) AcarSDeco2 installed by automated installation script. Please see this post for details:
