Canon not connecting

I have a 200D and it is not connecting to Indi, I have read and tried every bit of advice on this forum and I just can't get it to connect. I'm getting "No Cameras detected. Check power and make sure camera is not mounted by other programs and try again". The camera isn't mounted, it connects ok to my W10 laptop ok.

After you have connected the camera ( I am presuming USB as its an updated 100d ???) do a lsusb from the command line - does the camera show in the results ?



Note is the Canon 200d supported by Gphoto version in Indi ????

I have done lsusb and canon is showing ok, and when I disconnect it it doesn't show. I have checked INDI and 200D is in the list of supported cameras.

I'm using a RPI3 running Ubuntu Mate 16.04.5 LTS (Xenial Xerus) 32-bit, I've tried it with a 1m and 2m usb lead, also direct and through a powered USB hub. Log attached. Thanks

You log is saying its finding the Canon and is then waiting for you to connect the device via Start Indi in ekos(unless you ticked auto) - no errors in log Canon camera found ok

Quick test to try is to run the "Native" Gphoto command from the command line www.gphoto.org/doc/manual/using-gphoto2.html it may provide more info - no starting kstars/ekos just a terminal window. Think there is a better command line with full debug example on Indi Forum - cant find it at the moment :-(

Checked all that and gphoto is recognising my camera, but INDI still isn't, I'll keep searching
