Hi Nick
could you describe me the commands you did to install indi-allsky on your Rpi.
because I opened a station to install this program and another one, but for the moment no return.
indilib.org/forum/domes/12974-how-to-cre...and-indi-allsky.html
I have a rpi4 with astroberry on it, and I want to use this card only for my weather station with an ASI camera on it.

Thanks if you can help me.

Your pi4 needs to be running arm64 bit bullseye (latest raspian version). It wont work on older astroberry or on
bullseye 32 bit.
I first installed a fresh 64 bit raspian bullseye and did a full update to get the latest packages.
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade -y
reboot.
I am not using astroberry for astronomy (I have some ubuntu servers for that) so I only needed the indi libraries and binaries.
After the update make sure your camera works using libcamera-still
libcamera-still -n -o test.jpg
should produce an image (ignore warning messages from libcamera-still).
If the camera is not detected add an entry to last line of /boot/config.txt
dtoverlay=imx477

(assuming you are using a pi HQ camera IMX477. If using a USB astro camera then ignore this)
and reboot and test again.

To add astroberry repo look in astroberry wiki (replace buster with bullseye)

wget -O - www.astroberry.io/repo/key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo su -c "echo 'deb www.astroberry.io/repo/ bullseye main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/astroberry.list"
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Add the indi packages:
sudo apt install indi-full
sudo apt install libindi-dev

I also added in all the development packages because I may compile drivers for other devices - though I think indi-allsky should get everything you need for install

sudo apt install git libncurses-dev gawk flex bison openssl libssl-dev dkms libelf-dev libudev-dev libpci-dev libiberty-dev autoconf llvm

Now follow the instructions in:
github.com/aaronwmorris/indi-allsky

Hope that helps.

Hi Nick
so I have a blockage at this level

meteo@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo su -c "echo 'deb www.astroberry.io/repo/ bullseye main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/astroberry.list"
meteo@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt update
E: Entry 1 misformed in list file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/astroberry.list (URI parse)
E: The source list cannot be read.

and with the command to read the camera, I did not get this image
my camera is an ASI 120MC-S
connected to Usb


Regards
Chris

You have a typo in your repo definition.

The file
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/astroberry.list
should have a single line as follows:
deb www.astroberry.io/repo/ bullseye main

Then do apt update and apt upgrade.

You have a USB astro camera so ignore the pi HQ stuff.

Also if you are using a USB astro camera you should be able to use any of the distributions listed in
github.com/aaronwmorris/indi-allsky
My setup is for an using a raspbery pi HQ camera which is a non-indi camera.

deb www.astroberry.io/repo/ bullseye main

Well, here's an update on where I am at at the moment:

With me being too dense to solve the issue stated a few posts back I went back to TJ's Allsky instead, worked from the get go. Maybe I will give this one another try if I ever get a camera not supported by TJ's offering.

It is not my copy and paste as it just did the same thing again.
I think the problem with my posiing the repo file is that the indi forum thinks I am writing a web page and automatically
strips off the https:// from the url. in the repo description after I post it .
Add a https a : and a // before the www.
Look at astroberry wiki page under Inslallation and replace buster with bullseye.
