Hello Patrick,
Many thanks for your reply.
Whoo... new fresh install through compiling Indi... looks to me quite a hard task (I could do it, but I'm afraid it will take long - I'm not familiar enough with compiling). I'd like to observe tonight (;>)

We're talking about the Indi server, right? Not the Kstars/Ekos client (which is not on the same PC, in my case)?

I just looked on my Indi server (running on a Raspeberry Pi4): I've nothing in /usr/local/bin. And the
The command "sudo find /usr -name libASI*" returns:
usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libASICamera2.so.1.25
/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libASICamera2.so
/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libASICamera2.so.1

The command "strings /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libASICamera2.so.1.25 | grep 1," returns
1, 25, 0, 0
1, 25, 0, 0
which says, if I understand properly that I still have the faulty lib (should return 1, 22).

Any simple way to only get the 1.22 version?
Again, many thanks for your help.
Best regards,
François

You could try to get the libasi package from the nightly builds and either install that, or manually extract the .deb and only replace that one lib

Yes François we are speaking about the indiserver and the drivers of the devices handled by it.
The solution of Peter sound better that the one I suggest. Just download the indi-3rdparty set (github.com/indilib/indi-3rdparty). Go under indi-3rdparty/libasi/armv8 where there is a libASICamera2.bin. You just have to rename the library from .bin to .1.25.so and copy it in the right folder as /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libASICamera2.so.1.25.
Verify that "strings /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libASICamera2.so.1.25 | grep 1," gives "1.2".
Hope it will works.

Dear Peter and Patrick,

Unbelievable : IT WORKS ! Thank you so much for your help & reactivity.

I did exactly what you mention:
- rename libASICamera2.so.1.25 to libASICamera2.so.1.25OLD,
- copied the libASICamera2.bin (from github.com/indilib/indi-3rdparty/libasi/armv8) and rename it to /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libASICamera2.so.1.25
- checked that strings /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libASICamera2.so.1.25 | grep 1," gives "1.2" (yes, it does)
... and test Kstars: all ASI cameras work fine.

You're like magicians - thank you so much.
I'm now ready to observe again tonight. One day, I'll show you in detail what I'm doing (spectroscopy with UVEX instrument)...
Take care!
Best regards,
François

Heureux de savoir que cela fonctionne.
I am a new user of the Solar explorer device developped by Christian Buil and a newcomer in the spectrography world.
But I am also an old faithful user of open source softwares.;)
I will be happy to hear about your works in spectrography.
Have a nice day

Dear Patrick,
Wonderful! Welcome to spectroscopy.
This subject is "out of topics" in this thread, but tell me if you need any help somewhere.
Yesterday night I've been able to run a new observation, and everything went well.
Thank you again for your help.
Regards,
François

Good evening,

I´m also trying to fix the issue with ZWO cameras. In my case I have libASICamera2.so.1.26 instead of 25. In addition, if I download the bin file from github (github.com/indilib/indi-3rdparty/blob/ma...v8/libASICamera2.bin), I rename it and I run the command
strings /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libASICamera2.so.1.26 | grep 1
, it still returns 26 instead of 22. Did you download an old version?

Thanks and best regards.

@JUAN
Hi
Are the symlinks set correctly? Here's a working install.
Under:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
we have:



I believe that unless 1.26 fixes the disconnect for all versions, on arm that needs to be 1.22

Hi Alacant,

for me it is similar as your image. My question is about how to get the 22 version. Do you download from an old version in git? Current master version is 26.

Best regards.

If 1.26 doesn't work for you, the old versions are here:
github.com/indilib/indi-3rdparty/tree/master/libasi

Hit the platform you want, e.g. x64, then hit 'History'

Renaming and installation was covered here:

Thanks for the response.

I could get the .22 version, rename and replace, but problem persists... This is crazy because I have a RP3 and I can´t compile master from git because I don´t have enough RAM. And I can´t go back to the previous version... so basically I can´t do anything.

Nightly version is created for Ubuntu as far as I know, because I can´t add the repository in my Raspbian (sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mutlaqja/indinightly). I tried to install Kstars with Ubuntu Mate in my Raspberry, but it is so slow than it is not an option.

OK, a few questions:
You are running 64bit Linux, yes? What does 'uname -a' report?
Version 1.26 has fixed the issues with 64bit ARM. So it should work. If you still have issues, it might well be some other problem.
Compiling: Not 100% sure, but I think for compiling INDI there should be enough RAM. No need to fiddle with kstars.
