LoTW - DXCC Entity: <NONE>

Hi all,

this is not related to CQRLOG itself, but I'm struggling with adding LoTW to CQRLOG...

I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and latest trustedqsl package from the Ubuntu repositories (V1.11.unofficial.673).

When I load my *.p12 certificate file in tqslcert everythings works fine, but in the certificates list my DXCC entity is . So I thought I made a mistake while saving the *.p12 file and did that again on the windows machine. It works fine and no problem occured. But same error again. Have a look at 2 screenshots:

Everything's correct .. except the DXCC entity. On the windows machine the DXCC entity is okay.

Any idea what's wrong?! Is there any LoTW support except the LoTW Yahoo Group?!

(taking html tag brackets for the word 'none' was not a good idea...)

Problem solved

Hello,

the problem was finally solved after taking trustedqsl from the latest Ubuntu packages (10.04). So the trustedqsl from the Ubuntu 9.10 repositories is obviously buggy.

I fought this all day here.

I fought this all day here. I finally uaed alien to change the 2.0 lib rpm to a deb and install them, then I asked for a new cert.
Also I was told the arrl is updating their website and pulkling support for linux.

And that is one reason why we won't support it. We can't support anything that is not downloaded from our site. The new ARRL website scheduld to launch in a week or so will not have TQSL for Linux anymore.
Sorry.

I am sorry but we no longer support Trusted QSL with Linux OS.

Re: I fought this all day here.

Mark,

I got the very same answer from Norm. I personally don't think it's a good advertisement for ARRL/LoTW to stop TQSL for Linux.

Anyway, I managed to upload my logs to LoTW thru CQRLOG with my old certificate which was in use on a windows PC before. I think everything will work fine from the repositories in the upcoming Ubuntu 10.04 ..

Ubuntu 10.04 Packages

Hi Val,

all Ubuntu packages can be found here:

http://packages.ubuntu.com --> Lucid (code name of Ubuntu 10.04) --> Hamradio --> trustedqsl (1.11-8.1)

At the bottom of the website you'll find the packages for amd64 and i386 architecture. I had also to install the package "tqsllib1c2a" which can be found here:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/tqsllib1c2a
