Hello,

Please advise more information about your setup, software versions, and then, try to run KStars through the debugger and check all options before you start to get full debug information.

Of course! My equipment is: QHY294mm pro( QHYCFW3), Asi120mm mini,astroberry focuser, indi eqmod.Here in attached i put the last logs file of kstar. Looking at the file i can't see anything that reporting a crash, but only some captuer aborted, but i'm sure that during this interval ekos and kstar crashed.

I would suggest enabling ALL debugging options on both Kstars and INDI tabs, as well as the INDI capture driver. you do that by disable auto-connect on your profile, then start the profile, and before you press connect, go to the camera tab, and look for the debug options, select all, and make sure you write to a file, then connect your profile.

You will have 2 files to use, the kstars log and INDI driver log

Hi, i've enabled all debug i think, i've created a profile with only QHY driver and i've tested it doing a bias. After 2/3 frame the connection with the camera fall down, even though this time ekos isn't crashed.

Leave in attached the logs file.

In any case thanks a lot for the support

Hi Luca,
Could you try this command in a terminal and see what it gives four you ?
sudo cat /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/usbfs_memory_mb
If it's equal to 16, It's probably due to usb memory. Try with this command below and after that see if you still have the problem:
sudo sh -c 'echo 256 > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/usbfs_memory_mb'

Regards

Thanks for the advice oui, but yesterday i've tried to use CCDciel instead of kstar, but the problem still be present. If i try to do a sequence of bias after some frames the software lost the connection with the camera. This suggest me that the issue is in the indi drive of the camera maybe.

What do you think?

Thanks
