See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** While acquiring dark frames Kstars attempted a meridian flip and failed with the following log entries: 2022-09-05T23:03:54 Meridian flip completed. 2022-09-05T23:03:54 meridian flip failed, retrying in 4 minutes 2022-09-05T23:03:53 Meridian flip slew started... 2022-09-05T23:03:53 Meridian flip started. 2022-09-05T23:03:32 Meridian flip waiting. I stopped the Scheduler and after the four minutes had elapsed the meridian flip was successful, at which point I restarted the Scheduler. I'm guiding with PHD2, but was not guiding at the time because I was taking dark frames. I've consistently had the same failure while guiding. This was the first time that I thought to stop the Scheduler. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[kstars] [Bug 451687] Attempted Meridian Flip causes great confusion
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=451687 --- Comment #2 from Jon Bryan --- I just haven’t had any success with flips lately, so I’ve been scheduling around them. It fails without ever moving the mount. I think there must be something basic that I’m missing. We’ve had a very unusual couple of months of cloudy nights, but the monsoon flow up from Baja has shifted now and I’ve gotten a couple of good nights in. I’ll get back around to it eventually, but I’m having other problems with Kstars (3.6.0) failing in various ways after I go to bed. I really want to like it, but it’s not very reliable for me. -Jon > On Sep 4, 2022, at 6:07 AM, Wolfgang Reissenberger > wrote: > > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=451687 > > Wolfgang Reissenberger changed: > > What|Removed |Added > > Resolution|--- |WAITINGFORINFO > CC||wreis...@gmx.de > Status|REPORTED|NEEDSINFO > > --- Comment #1 from Wolfgang Reissenberger --- > Sorry for the late response.

[kstars] [Bug 458640] PHD2 Timing Out, INDI and Kstars/PHD2 don't agree
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=458640 --- Comment #2 from Jon Bryan --- It’s happened a number of times, but this was the first time I got it going again without restarting Kstars on both ends. There may be some issue with my Xfinity router, because I’ve had several occasions when images were coming across really slow and I “fixed” it by rebooting the router, but that doesn’t seem to be related to this problem with it timing out and exposure time getting out of sync. I’ll certainly let you know if I figure out a way to reproduce it. -Jon > On Sep 3, 2022, at 10:03 AM, Rob wrote: > > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=458640 > > --- Comment #1 from Rob --- > I'm sorry this happened to you.

[kstars] [Bug 458640] New: PHD2 Timing Out, INDI and Kstars/PHD2 don't agree
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=458640 Bug ID: 458640 Summary: PHD2 Timing Out, INDI and Kstars/PHD2 don't agree Product: kstars Version: 3.6.0 Platform: macOS (DMG) OS: macOS Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: mutla...@ikarustech.com Reporter: jbry...@comcast.net Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** I am running 3.6.0 on my MacBook connected to my rig, and 3.6.0 on my iMac in the house to control it remotely. I had a problem (again) last night with PHD2 timing out while trying to download from my ASI120MM guide camera. After trying multiple times, restarting INDI, restarting Kstars on the iMac, I went into the INDI camera settings and discovered that the exposure time was set to a very small value, even though I'm sure that Kstars and PHD2 both thought it was at 2 seconds. I set it to 2 in the INDI camera configuration and tried again, and it worked! Now I have to moan a little. I started up my sequence and went to bed, since it was 2:30 by that point. Then when I got up and checked at 6:30 I discovered that it had taken six exposures and crashed hard out of Kstars. Really disappointing, since the seeing was first-rate for the first time in weeks, and my little mount was consistently guiding better than an arc-second as long as the wind wasn't blowing. I could really love Kstars if it didn't do these things to me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[kstars] [Bug 457425] Cmd-F Crashes Every Time
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457425 --- Comment #6 from Jon Bryan --- Oops. I didn't. Last night was a bust, windy and then clouds rolled in, and I didn’t take the cue that it was a new 3.6.0. I don’t have everything fully up and running PHD2/remote MacBook/scope, but it didn’t crash when I tried it just now, so that’s promising. -Jon > On Aug 29, 2022, at 4:38 AM, Rob wrote: > > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457425 > > --- Comment #5 from Rob --- > Are you trying the latest dmg that I posted here? > > https://edu.kde.org/kstars/#download > > Because it definitely was doing what you described, but a more recent commit > fixed the issue and put into the stable 3.6.0 and then I rebuilt the dmg and > replaced the former file. > > -- > You are receiving this mail because: > You reported the bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[kstars] [Bug 457425] Cmd-F Crashes Every Time
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457425 --- Comment #3 from Jon Bryan --- Well, I finally caught a break after six weeks of cloudy nights, and the problem persists on my 27” iMac. Trying to find something instantly crashes completely out of Kstars in 3.6.0. I fought with 3.5.9 for three hours, after it suddenly decided it wouldn’t connect to my guide camera through PHD2 any more, before deciding to try 3.6.0 again. At least I can click on things, but trying to find something results in an instant crash every time. -Jon > On Aug 26, 2022, at 11:09 PM, Rob wrote: > > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457425 > > --- Comment #2 from Rob --- > It has taken me some time to work through several issues, but I think the > 3.6.0 > is now a pretty good one.

See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** Running KStars/Ekos remotely on a MacBook Pro, controlling with an iMac in the house. Using PHD2 to guide. I had split the job into a pre-meridian sequence, darks, and post-meridian, imaging M 106. At the conclusion of the dark acquisition, the mount was reporting only about three minutes to the flip. I paused the Scheduler, leaving the mount tracking and PHD2 guiding. When it came time for the flip, it reported failure, and said it would try again in three-something minutes. I noticed that the mount was offset somewhat from the target. I tried to capture and slew to it, but the mount wouldn't move. I selected a number of other objects in the vicinity and had no problem solving and centering them. No matter what I tried, it would no longer solve and center M 106 in the reticle. I eventually realized that PHD2 was interfering somehow (though no longer guiding), and killed and restarted it. I was then able to capture, solve and slew to M 106. I deleted the pre-meridian and dark jobs in the scheduler, re-started it and completed the post-meridian job. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. 2. 3.
