Wrong device ID - Data in log file

Hi Anton,

I'd put the wrong device ID for one unit. I followed the troubleshooting (https://www.traccar.org/troubleshooting/) and got the right ID out of the log file and updated in in the web interface.

Will the position data from the log files be uploaded eventually or is there a way to get it resubmitted? Decoding the HEX data it looks like it is all there.

Thanks,
Mike

The answer depends on your device.

It's a TK103 device. I know the protocol is right as I was using it on another instance. Its reporting in on port :5002.

This is an example entry in the log:

2021-02-20 14:49:20  INFO: [5b75a62e: tk103 < 172.17.0.1] HEX: 283038373037323634393736314252303032313032323041343732332e373237334e30303733382e31383432453035392e343134343931393237302e323630313030303030304c303030343530414229

My point was that if your device re-submits the same data if upload fails - then yes. But server won't buffer that data anywhere.

Ok so if the device doesn’t resend then there is no way to extract the data from the log file and upload manually?

Of course you can do it manually if you want.
