GPS error

[Martyparty]

I am working with a GPS NEO 6M, and I finally get data from both the cat /dev/serial0, and the gpsmon /dev/serial0. But when running sudo gpsmon /dev/serial0, it suddenly stops and I get this message: Read error from device. What's the reason for this?

And when trying to run cgps -s, I get no information, and next to status it stands NO FIX (0 sec), what does this mean?

I am also wondering how I can get this information into a live stream of the coordinates?

Thank you for any answers.

cgps is a client program for GPSD, is GPSD running ?

gpsmon is a program that reads directly from serialport. You should not run this program at the same time as GPSD, only one program should read from the serialport at any time.

I used this code
sudo systemctl stop gpsd.socket
sudo systemctl disable gpsd.socket

and then

sudo killall gpsd
sudo gpsd /dev/serial0 -F /var/run/gpsd.sock

and then

cgps -s

How do I get the GPSD to run?

I have also installed the gpsd with this code

sudo apt-get install gpsd gpsd-clients python-gps

Tried running this code, which is supposed to start gpsd

gpsd -D 5 -N -n /dev/serial0

And got this

sudo systemctl stop gpsd.socket
sudo systemctl disable gpsd.socket

This is where you turned OFF the GPSD..
So to turn in on again you use the opposite commands ( "enable" and "start" )

But you have to contigure GPSD so it uses correct serialport and baudrate.

Thank you. I got it working the other day, when turning it on, but today it is not working again.. I thought the serialport was supposed to be turned off?

Error when using the code

gpsmon /dev/serial0

I get this message

tcp://localhost:2947:dev/seriaJSON slave driver>
(115) {"class":"VERSION","release":"3.11","rev":"3.11-3","proto_major":3,"proto_
minor":9,"remote":"tcp://localhost:2947"}
(59) {"class":"ERROR","message":"No such device as dev/serial0"}

What's the reason for this?

[Martyparty]

Now when running gpsmon /dev/serial0

I get this error

gpsmon:ERROR: device open failed: No such file or directory - retrying read-only
gpsmon:ERROR: read-only device open failed: No such file or directory
gpsmon: activation of device /dev/serial0 failed, errno=2 (No such file or directory)

Does anyone know why this happens now?

Are you using a Pi for this? If so, why post in off-topic?
