ASI usb3 camera retries 3 times on exposure and fails - git builds

Replied by Jasem Mutlaq on topic ASI usb3 camera retries 3 times on exposure and fails - git builds

I think that's a good idea... we need to increase the debian version (and I presume spec too) so that is overwrites the nightlies...

The spec won't need changed. It also has a date-stamp automatically, so will get updated with the merge.

Alright, go ahead then and please prepare a PR if you can. Anyone reporting these crash issues to ZWO?

Just tried it with my laptop and the ASI183MC.  Did crash, too:

Yes, 1.16.3 is also what I run for observations (a compile from March 11).
ISTR that there were also reports of issues with the filter wheels here in the forum.  They do work for me, though, as does the EAF.

I have not had any problems with my filter wheel either.

I fixed my crashes by 1) purging libasi, then 2) recompiling indi using 'git checkout dc02153a571281f613321df0cad912d5ae09480a' instead of 'git checkout master', i.e. going back in time to March 10 when everything still worked for me.

Not the cleanest method, but fast and after doing that my ZWO filter wheel, Moonlight focuser and ZWO cameras were back in action again.

I assume that reverted the ZWO SDK also, but I did not check.

Running latest nightly (2021-04-21T23:50:23Z) on Ubuntu 20.04.2.  Immediately on starting Ekos I get a dialog that says "INDI Driver indi_asi_ccd crashed.  Restart it?" and it will cycle a couple of time (probably once for each ASI CCD device), and then show the INDI Control Panel without my ASI devices.  I also see a message about the driver crash in the log.  Latest Stable (3.5.2 I think) works fine on the machine.  Related?

@AIRBOURN you didn't provide any logs, so I don't know if your error is the same or not, but when you say latest nightly, you made sure to have the latest indilib as well as asi driver and library? I had thought this particular error was mitigated now.

I just updated Indi and Kstars from nightly and I am seeing exactly the same thing.  Except that it doesn't just cycle the crash/restart window only a couple of times, it continued to do that until I canceled after about 3 min.

I get the same repeated crash. My log file shows a problem with libASICamera2.so ?
