Help me with the config of ``config/traccar.xml``

[vitinhosessa]

Problem/Motivation

The new update v0.7.0 requires that all protocols and ports, besides the web API, are now disabled by default! And you need to manually enable each protocol you need to use in the /config/traccar.xml file yourself.

I tried to read the traccar documentation. And i added this to the config file.

<entry key='[protocol].port'>5013</entry>

My GPS is a Sinotrack ST-901, that uses H02 protocol and the port is 5013.

Expected behavior

My expected behavior was that everything was going to work. But probably i'm missing something.

Actual behavior

The GPS doesn't connect to traccar.

Steps to reproduce

Updating to v0.7.0 and adding this:

<entry key='[protocol].port'>5013</entry>

to /config/traccar.xml

The issue is the examples aren't added to existing config files. You can see them at https://github.com/hassio-addons/addon-traccar/blob/master/traccar/rootfs/etc/traccar/traccar.xml

In your case it would likely be <entry key='h02.port'>5013</entry>
