Re: [chrony-users] gpsd:ERROR... Permission denied

Just curious.  Are you using the chrony and gpsd from the Raspbian Jessie repositories?  If so, do yourself a favor and get rid of them both, download the latest source for BOTH and compile them yourself.  I beat my head against a wall trying to get the repo versions to work but they are horribly outdated. 

Also verify the permission on /dev/pps0 and make sure the user running gpsd has access to the device file.

The easiest is jut to not install ntpd.. The next is to make sure that neither in /etc/rc?.d or in /lib/systemd there is nothing that calls ntpd. ntp is the protocol, and chrony uses that protocol. ntpd is the reference implimentation of that protocol to discipline the local clock, which would be in conflict with chrony. > > > >> Sent: Monday, February 05, 2018 at 4:15 PM >> From: "Ariel Garcia" >> To: chrony-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.org >> Subject: Re: [chrony-users] gpsd:ERROR...
