Hello,

Having a problem building a driver in the 3rd party environment. I have a working driver in the normal indi/drivers section (compiles /runs) for which I created the setup in the 3rd party environment. (need to add specific libraries later on) After creating the files, cmake and make and copying the driver to /usr/bin it immediatelly quits . (STDERR:EOF and after 10 times gives up)

Seems to be a more general problem with compiling the 3rd party drivers.
To be sure I cloned libindi again from github and compiled the normal drivers : no problem
Then I tried to compile eqmod as explained on the github page
cd build
mkdir indi-eqmod
cd indi-eqmod
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ../../3rdparty/indi-eqmod
make
sudo make install

then running indiserver with new eqmod driver ---> same result

Any ideas someone?

It appears the stderr EOF and restart messages are from indiserver after the driver exits. Can you get any more trace from the driver itself perhaps running under debug or using it via Ekos with verbose logging?

Seems to die when at EnumerateMathPlugins.
Tried to compile the the Generic-ccd and that seems to work.

Does not explain why my code, which runs normally when compiled from normal libindi dev dies when compiled from the 3rd party environment.

Must be overlooking something but no clue what.

problem solved. Misspelled the driver name, so sh*t happens ....
building the eqmod still fails, but I don't need that, the one in the standard distribution works.

Thanks for the update. I was trying to rebuild eqmod but having trouble with some kind of mismatch on the link with libcfitsio.so.5, needed by /usr/local/lib64/libindidriver.so, where Fedora 29 has version 7. So good no need to solve that one.
