sorry still crashing.
Maybe my problem is a different one. I got crashes with 2.9.3, 2.9.4 and now 2.9.5.

deleted kstars app. downloaded and installed kstars 2.9.5 again.
still no success.
are there any hidden config files I have to delete manually?
strange thing is, that on one evening kstars 2.9.3 worked perfectly and the next day when I tried to start it, it crashed. I am pretty sure that I didn't changed anything in the meantime.

Ok, I have updated the KStars Mac DMG. There was a typo in the build script on the macdeployqt line. That explains why the qt.conf file was not created and why the plugins were not exported correctly. wvreeven helped me track down the issue. Please try the dmg again as soon as possible.


Thanks,

Rob

Florian, that's strange. For me KStars is starting up fine now.

Solved the Problem using "app cleaner" and a fresh install. Thank you Wouter for the hint to this very helpful little program!
I think deleting the /Libary/Application Support/Kstars files was the solution.

Do you have a backup? Time Machine? You can restore the files you like and still keep the newer versions of the others.
