JamesF Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I decided I'd upgrade last night as there's a new release out on launchpad. Not a great move, as it turns out. INDI/Ekos crashes on my 64-bit Mint 19 system as soon as I attempt to start indiserver, and it looks as though I'm not alone -- I've seen a report that it does the same on Ubuntu. There is a workaround, which is to move the .indi directory to a different name, but that does mean you lose all of INDI's configuration such as filter wheel and OTA settings and have to re-enter them all James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I would have assumed he had updated the source.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesF Posted April 25, 2020 Author Share Posted April 25, 2020 Looks like there's just been another update. It wasn't there when I logged in on the machine about an hour ago, but it has found it now. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesF Posted April 25, 2020 Author Share Posted April 25, 2020 I'll give the new update a go on the system with the 127 Mak on. See if that fixes things. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesF Posted April 25, 2020 Author Share Posted April 25, 2020 Not if you have an ASI filter wheel, it seems :( 2020-04-25T21:44:51: [ERROR] Connect(): EFWGetPosition() = 6 2020-04-25T21:44:51: [INFO] Detected 5-position filter wheel. I'm sure I've heard about this problem before, but I can't recall what the fix is, assuming there is one. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gina Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 My current version is working fine so I'm adopting the idiom that "if it ain't broke don't fix it". That has done me pretty well so far! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart1971 Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 I have just updated again and all is good....whatever the issue it’s sorted... 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryMcK Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 (edited) I found my Ekos/Kstars to crash after a recent update. Fortunately I worked out through a process of elimination it was the Lakeside focuser config.xml file that had become corrupt. I restored a backup of the file and all is well again.
