It looks like there is an issue with EQMod. The first time in your log - when it went well - there are log entries from the pointing model of EQMdód:
[2020-06-30T22:25:09.202 CEST INFO ][           org.kde.kstars.indi] - EQMod Mount :  "[INFO] Align Pointset: added point 0 alt = 47.7436 az = 69.7723 "

These entries are missing for the attempt later.

i did the same with the latest git but using INDI from the stable PPA.

The first session works fine. The issue occurs after a restart. The logs for the first session and the restart are posted here

Thanks

@jasem
Could you confirm what INDI version we need? e.g. is INDI from your stable PPA OK with the latest git?
TIA,
Steve

Issue was in KStars, not INDI.

Ah, OK.
So we need only build the latest git and use it with the INDI from your ppa?

Tried with latest fit. No change. Alignment works first time then fails.
Please see the log after 00:10 for the failed alignment.
TIA

I have to say that I ran into a similar problem last night--I guess.
It failed to start slewing, but seemingly only to a target near the pole.
When I went to a different target, things seemed to work.
I had assumed something flakey in my setup, but now seeing this, seems too similar.
I was likely running almost the latest git code at the time (probably commit db1a8211)
so if the fix Jasem is talking about is 44681d5 (which is after the above), I was not running that.

Will post if I run into the issue again.

I did one full night of imaging with the latest KStars from GitHub (commit 446481d5fb485ec6437c43bb6bcc1c5b76adedfd) and INDI 1.8.5 from the stable PPA. My EQ6-R mount slewed and aligned to four different targets without problems.

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationOk. Now disconnect the mount and reconnect. Alignment now fails:

I started a new thread;
