Bug ID: 480149
Summary: KSTARS 3.6.8 Stable (EKOS) consistently crashes using
the dark wizard on a MacBook Air M2 / Sonoma
Classification: Applications
Product: kstars
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Other
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: mutla...@ikarustech.com
Reporter: jpineda...@live.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
KSTARS consistently crashes on my Macbook air M2 if I used the Dark wizard tool
more than once. The fix is to erase dark frame masters from KSTARS and from the
Macbook drive folder before subsequent use. The same issue was not seen during
trials with a Windows 11 PC.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. I ran the dark wizard for my guide camera ... 5 exposures each over 1-5
second range.
2. Immediately repeat step 1.
OBSERVED RESULT
KSTARS crashes
EXPECTED RESULT
old darks + masters are overwritten
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows:
macOS: Sonoma 14.2.1
Linux/KDE Plasma:
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version:
KDE Frameworks Version:
Qt Version:
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I was able to fix the issue by manually deleting the old masters using the
wizard AND manually deleting the files on my MAC...I had to do both. I could
then rerun the dark wizard without the crash.
