Yes. I'm compiling it myself.

I did some more testing. I removed compiled version and installed latest kstars-bleeding with apt-get. Polar Alignment works perfectly! Then I removed that and compiled latest master branch again. PA is still broken but everything else is working. So probably I do something wrong when I compile it. I use these instructions for compiling: indilib.org/forum/general/210-howto-buil...st-libindi-ekos.html

I have the same problem too. Error happens after third capture if "FITS limited resources" is checked. If it's unchecked Polar Alignment goes never ending loop when it's trying to capture&solve first image. I think I've tested all combinations with FITS, Solver and simulator camera WCS settings. Nothing works. Any idea what is going on?

This happens with the latest master branch and it has been like that at least 2 months. Same thing with simulator and my real equipment.

Configure KStars -> FITS -> Limited recources checked

Hello,

I'm facing similar problems with my ALCCD5 (should be the same camera as QHY5). When I'm using focuser tab "Framing" or guiding tab "Looping" it always breaks at some point giving GetQHYCCDSingleFrame error (-1). Intresting thing here is that camera works perfecly on CCD sequence queue tab with similar sequences.

I have tested this with the latest master branch and with tag v17.08.2.

This is debug log from the guiding tab looping:
