Error while taking darks.

Today there was an unspecified error when i was shooting darks in the morning.

Can someone see what the problem was with this Logs here?


cheers

Hey Niki,

all I can see is a "GP result -52" (gphoto error -52?). I've no idea what it means. Error -53 is USB related. Taking lights did not produce any errors/problems? If so, cover your cam and take darks as lights, that should be a simple work around to avoid the issue. You could also try a different USB port just in case error -52 is USB related, too.

According to libghoto2 error "-52" denotes:
./libgphoto2_port/gphoto2/gphoto2-port-result.h:#define GP_ERROR_IO_USB_FIND            -52

According to your screenshots (though it would be better to share the LOG txt file :-), the problem started with gphoto2 message:
[ERROR] Exposure failed to save image... unspecified error

This seems to let libghoto2/indi_gphoto2_ccd staying in an error state and as a consequence it produced subsequent libghoto2 error messages:
...
[DEBUG] Failed to set new configuration value (GP result: -1)
...
[DEBUG] Failed to set new configuration value (GP result: -52)

Is is possible that your SD card is full?

The problem is not such a big deal, since its not happening often, but sometimes. I don‘t know if it has to do with darks at all, i just said, it happened whike taking darks.

I have got problems uploading the logs most of the time because they are so big. In this case 76 mb.

The sd card was NOT full. Good idea, but checked that at first.

I think there must be a little problem with the driver of the cam, because i can reproduce a total system crash with disconnecting the dslr in the indi controls. Reconnecting will crash kstars.

I‘ll upload the logs to my dropbox in the future to can support you with it more easy.

Cheers, Niki
