Did you "sudo apt-get update" before the "sudo apt-get upgrade" command?

The "Power on ?" query is an INDI debug line, so INDI is not detecting your QHY camera, although it appears that INDI is starting correctly (Just saying that this looks INDI related, rather than directly Astroberry related).

Ok so i did an update then an upgrade, no differences.
I have again the "No QHY camera detected. Power on ? "
The astroberry server is fresh, newly installed on my RPI3B+. So is the QHY367C.

Any thoughts ?

Nope... No sign of QHY camera after a lsusb.
Do i need to install something else ?

If you can't see any QHY device in the output then its just not seeing the camera via the USB port. (or any difference with the output of lsusb when the camera is connected compared to when it is not)

Perhaps try a different USB cable, check connections and power.

Does the camera work on another system?

No, you shouldn't have to, although I only have ZWO cameras not QHY, but should be the same.

Try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. That may help.

Ok so i have did some tests. Here the message i have posted on QHYCCD forum :

I have a QHY367 and i''m trying to use it on my RPi astroberry server (indi). The camera is not recognize.
So i have tried to connect it to my mac, with EZCAP, without success.
After that i've installed native driver on my bootcamp, with EZCAP for windows. The camera is well recognized.
Because i want to use it on my astroberry server, which uses indi driver, do you have an idea about the issue here ?
Do you think is usb cable correlated ? Do i need to powered it ?
Thank you for the reply. "

So the cable works for windows. But impossible for me to run the camera on astroberry or mac.
I'll tried with sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

After dist-upgrade, doesn't work.
It's weird. For my asi183, all work without issue (OAG, EWF, cam and EAF).

Ok What kind of PI are you putting astroberry on? If you hare using a PI 3, then use a USB2 cable. I just tried using a USB3 cable on a USB2 port and that locked up my QHY183M. If I use a USB2 cable plugged in to the same Rasberry Pi 3, it worked just fine.

Try using a USB2 cable with your camera and see if it works.

Thanks,

I have a RPI 3B+.
I don't have USB 2.0 cable, because the shape of the cable (camera side) is weird (looks like printer cable but with another part). And i have only 3.0 cable (from my ZWO and my QHY camera).
