SM 1.7 64-bit - ASTAP wouldn't install (solved)

Hello.
Installed SM 1.7 64-bit a couple of days ago on RPI4 4Gb.
Maybe it's just me but it looks like the 64-bit version is not 100% ready for general public.

Had some issues with the UI. Had to fix some font/bars colors.
Couldn't find Trash.
Then had some issues with equipment not being recognized. Fixed (see my other thread). It's fixable but doesn't work by default.

Now, it's another issue. ASTAP wouldn't install via the Control Panel (now it's called StellarMate Dashboard).
I go to Software/Available and click on ASTAP. It downloads H17 catalogue and ASTAP itself but then it's nowhere to be found in the system and doesn't work.

On a good note. 64-bit feels faster than 32-bit and there's no problem with FITS viewer and auto-debayer any more.

Haven't tried it with real stars yet.

Just reporting and hoping it's going to be fixed soon.
Planning to get an 8Gb version RPI for 64-bit soon.
Thanks!

Sorry, this was my fault. User error. Sorry.
For ASTAP I clicked on Download but didn't notice that I also had to click on Install.
Now ASTAP works.

As for the Trash. It's on the desktop but not in the File manager which was different in 32-bit version. OK with me.

Hi!

I just flashed a SM 1.7.0 32-bit image - and I see no option to install ASTAP (nor Teamviewer) in the Control panel. Am I missing something...?

If you go to stellarmate.local:3000; you might have to turn on the beta channel but it's there. Other option is to go to the website and download it. I found the GUI version installs easier.

Hi!

Thanks. It seems that it turned up in the Control panel after a while (a few hours..?). Install without any problems after than.
