Database/Map/Server

RPi side

Lets set up our map server with local cached image files

1. install Nginx

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nginx
sudo service nginx start

1. Make a link to /var/www to make things easier

sudo ln -s /var/www /home/USER/code

(# now set up PHP with fastCGI) (# set up mapserv) (# add mapserv to cache)

1. Set up AP with hostap (instructions from set up AP with udhcpd)

sudo apt-get install hostapd

edit the file /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf

interface=wlan0
ssid=TacticalSpaceLab
hw_mode=g
channel=6
auth_algs=1
wmm_enabled=0

Edit the file /etc/default/hostapd and change the line:

#DAEMON_CONF=""

to

DAEMON_CONF="/etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf"
 

Start it up, and add it to start at boot

sudo service hostapd start
sudo update-rc.d hostapd enable
 

sudo service hostapd start

1. edimax version of hostapd if using an edimax wifi usb

1. Set up interface for serving DHCP and DNS

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 10.1.2.1
netmask 255.255.255.0

iface wlan0 inet static
address 10.1.2.2
netmask 255.255.255.0

1. Install dnsmasq "sudo apt-get install dnsmasq" and configure

# captive portal to this
address=/#/10.1.2.1
interface=eth0
dhcp-range=10.1.2.5,12h

1. restart dnsmasq

sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart

1. dnsmarsq script logging...

Create /var/log/dhcp_leases file with write create /usr/bin/logdhcp, make executable add it to dnsmasq config

#!/bin/bash
destfile=/var/log/dhcp_leases
#if [ "$1" == "add" ]
#then
  if [ -f "$destfile" ]
  then
    echo "$1 $2" >> "$destfile"
  fi
#fi

ended up using dnsmasq for DNS and DHCP. Setting DNS forward IP to local for captive portal setup

/var/www

MQ var directory archive

Remember to make all /var/www/ folders readable with:

sudo find /var/www -type d -exec chmod a+x {} +

and possibly

sudo find /var/www -type d -exec chown  {} root:root +
