In the Menu you have a wrench, Look for USB connection, my SLR have 3 options: Mass Storage, PTP and Remote computer, when I set
PTP I get the same message than yours.
Now , I set Remote computer but now i get this message in EKOS:
[WARNING] Shutter speed widget does not have any valid data (count=0). Using fallback speeds...

by now, i have not resolved it yet ...

Ah. I see what you mean. It on the camera!

I don’t have that option on the a55.

Thanks

Please attach the full logs. You might need to debug the driver later on, but logs first.

The driver crashes, are you using INDI Nightly or Stable PPA? Please try Nightly PPA and see if it crashes there. If this is already nightly then we'll have to debug.

What do I need to do to initiate a debug of the Indi_sony_ccd driver? I don't see a debug option in the logs area.

Attached is log that had the following parameters set: Verbose/INDI/CCD/Capture.

Cheers

Debugging would require some extra steps. You need to start the driver from the terminal. Check here for details: www.indilib.org/forum/general/571-read-b...support-request.html

If you get stuck, send me your TeamViewer details in a private message and I can check it out later.

OK - not sure I am doing this correctly!
Followed the post you referenced but couldn'y fing a indi_sony_ccd_dbg to install. I did install the indi_gphoto_dbg
From terminal ran: gdb --ex run --eval-command="set follow-fork-mode child" --args indiserver -v indi_sony_ccd
Then started KSTARS and set the debug option in the driver as per instructions - connected to camera and it crashed....
did a bt in gdb and copied the output. Attached are two files: the debug log file and a copy of the gdb output.

It's getting late so I will pick up tomorrow - thanks for any pointers
