Pixinsight WBPP failed

[Skipper Billy]

First time ever - WBPP failed.

Simple stack of 30 lights with tried and tested master flats, bias and darks.

Same error 3 times running.

Put the same files through the old BPP and it completed without errors.

Anyone any ideas???

Just for completeness in case someone else has the same issue - The subs were all good but I was chasing the almost non existent OIII in the California neb. The target type was set as Nebula and when I changed that to 'stars' it completed without errors - I guess it just couldn't 'see' the very faint nebulosity and therefore couldn't weight it.

Hi

If you look at your above log you will see the SNR is 0% and therefore Pixinsight can work out a weight - the image be very low on signal

So do not use the weighting part of the script to get round this or stars/cluster as you say - personally would ignore the weight option
