Why does my peer not appear on the WebStatus page?

It could be due to the fact that you have set one or more parameters of your peer.properties file with a wrong value.

Please accurately check the values of your peer.properties file.

A common mistake is to specify latitude/longitude values as DEGREES MINUTES SECONDS form in place of DECIMAL DEGREES one. For instance, if your peer is located at coordinates:

latitude: 41° 52′ 00” N

longitude: 12° 37′ 00” E

in order to set these value inside the peer.properties file, you have to write:

peer.latitude: 41.87

peer.longitude: 12.62

The convertion from DEGREES MINUTES SECONDS to DECIMAL DEGREES can be performed with the formula:

DECIMAL DEGREES = DEGREES + MINUTES / 60 + SECONDS / 3600
