WCS info wont work

New issue for me, as this has never been seen before.  Probably user error.
For some reason I keep getting the message that the World Coordinate System (WCS) is disabled.
I have turned on the WCS info setting in the INDI camera settings.
I then use Stellarsolver to solve an image - and the the WCS turns off.  SO I am unable to use the Center Telescope function.
Is there any other setting I need to check?

Have you tried to enable verbose logging, and check the log for hints what it doesn't like?

Yes,, and I don't see any errors pop up. I just get a message that it was turned off.
[2021-09-12T15:21:39.959 MDT INFO ][ org.kde.kstars.ekos.align] - "World Coordinate System (WCS) is disabled."
[2021-09-12T15:21:39.970 MDT INFO ][ org.kde.kstars.indi] - ZWO CCD ASI1600MM Pro : "[INFO] World Coordinate System is disabled. "

So I am stuck, and using the Center Telescope feature is so important to me since I image at very narrow field of views.
I have never seen this before, and have not seen anyone else with this issue.

Ok, solved. I didn't realize there were TWO places within the system to turn on WCS - the Camera control panel in INDI and also the Stellarsolver control panel in EKOS. Somehow after an update, the WCS in Stellarmsolver got turned off. I had only been checking the camera WCS button in INDI.

The control in the INDI Control Panel should not be used, use everything from Ekos unless there is an explicit reason to toggle it from INDI.
