Hello,
I'm trying to setup Ekos for my equipment but I'm having some problem with plate solving. I use an ED80 (80mm, 510 focal-length, 5.20 micron pixel size) and I downloaded indexes files from astronometry with index between 4200-08 to 4200-12 in /usr/share/data. CCD tsb configuration is correct.
This is my astronometry.cfg file:

# This is a config file for the Astrometry.net 'astrometry-engine'
# program - it contains information about where indices are stored,
# and "site policy" items.

# Check the indices in parallel?
#
# -if the indices you are using take less than 2 GB of space, and you have at least
# as much physical memory as indices, then you want this enabled.
#
# -if you are using a 64-bit machine and you have enough physical memory to contain
# the indices you are using, then you want this enabled.
#
# -otherwise, leave it commented-out.

#inparallel

# If no scale estimate is given, use these limits on field width.
# minwidth 0.1
# maxwidth 180

# If no depths are given, use these:
#depths 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100

# Maximum CPU time to spend on a field, in seconds:
# default is 600 (ten minutes), which is probably way overkill.
cpulimit 300

# In which directories should we search for indices?
add_path /usr/share/data

# Load any indices found in the directories listed above.
autoindex

## Or... explicitly list the indices to load.

I tried to solve this pic :
www.mediafire.com/view/xo4zgt7ndbxgh07/L...ISO800_600s__16C.JPG

I (sometimes) succeeded online but I've never got to solve it offline. I also tried by command line and this is the output:

Do you have any idea about get it right?

Thanks,

So it looks like it fails even when you use solve-field from the command line...
How did you install astrometery.net? Also what is it running on? (x86/ARM)

I run the offline server on an intel i5 running kubuntu and it works really well. I installed from the ubuntu repositories.
The only time I have problems is if I go messing with the command line arguments in Ekos. Resetting these usually fixes it for me but I think you have a problem with the installation of the binaries themselves.

Yeah it's crashing (core dumped). Please install astrometry.net from the official Ubuntu repo.

No way of get image solved: I unistalled indi-full, kstars-bleeding, astrometry.net, I removed previous repository of astrometry to force using the official ubuntu one. I installed all from scratch and tried again to solve. Always core dump. I give up ...

If you have TeamViewer, send me the credentials and I can check it out.

Hi,
Do you run on an ARM processor (Beagle in your machine name makes me think of this) ?
In this case, the 'Illegal instruction' you get when running the solver may come from an erroneous target processor architecture used when compiling (or a mistake when installing the package). Check your processor architecture (v4, v4te, v5, v6 v7, ...) and the architecture of the binary itself (with nm or objdump, don't remember).

Hello,
it's a netbook based on Intel Atom, Beagle is to celebrate the unlucky European probe crashed on Mars...

Hello,
I tried compiling and I got this error:
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/giovanni/astrometry.net/astrometry.net/util'

As far as I can see it seem gls is missing so I installed :
sudo apt-get install libglm-dev

I still had the problem so I installed prerequisites for astronometry:
sudo apt-get install libcairo2-dev libnetpbm10-dev netpbm libpng12-dev libjpeg-dev python-numpy python-pyfits python-dev zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev swig cfitsio-dev

But I still have the error.
Any suggestion?

Thanks,
Giovanni.

You have to install the gsl (and matching -dev package), not gls or glm.
