I followed instructions on the web page and only difference I see is that I have version 11 of java stuff. Whne I run the main program, the last few lines say something about starting, but config screen never comes up. Where do I look.

Did you start YAAC from a command prompt (as opposed to clicking on the YAAC.jar file in a graphical file manager)? If so, then YAAC should print out what it is doing to the terminal window. Capture that output and email it to me or the list, and we'll see what the issue is.

OK, so I am using a remote connection to a raspberry pi. So far no problem. On the other hand, to save screen, I was shrinking down the window to see around it. That was the problem as the program was starting up. So after logging in several times, I made the screen full size and when running the program, everything started working. Now working through the setup screens. Does direwolf need to start before starting YAAC?


 

Yes, any software TNC program you want to use has to be running and available before YAAC tries to connect to it. Unlike Internet connections to APRS-IS, YAAC won't keep retrying to find the local software TNC, as said program generally won't fix itself without local human intervention (in which case, the local human can subsequently re-enable the YAAC port to the software TNC process).

I never knew YAAC would fail completely if the graphical desktop UI was too small. It can definitely be unusable (hence why the smallscreen plugin was developed), but it should keep trying to work with a somewhat munged UI.
