Hi everyone

kstars will not start:
ubuntu 20.04 kstars-bleeding stable updated today:
kstars: symbol lookup error: kstars: undefined symbol: _ZN7SSolver10Parameters14convertFromMapE4QMapI7QString8QVariantE

tried building stellarsolver and have:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu$ ls -la libstellar*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 may 22 18:45 libstellarsolver.so -> libstellarsolver.so.2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 may 22 18:45 libstellarsolver.so.2 -> libstellarsolver.so.2.3
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6240544 may 22 18:45 libstellarsolver.so.2.3

Solution
Build kstars and stellarsolver from git.

Cheers.

Same for me too...

www.indilib.org/forum/general/11608-is-i....html?start=24#83037

And here too:

"kstars: symbol lookup error: kstars: undefined symbol: _ZN7SSolver10Parameters14convertFromMapE4QMapI7QString8QVariantE"

Reverted to 2.2 (libstellarsolver_2.2+202203160459_ubuntu20.04.1_amd64.deb) and KStars is up again. So the problem is the new one (2.3).

Same problem for me...

This is the Xsession error log message. Consistent in Ubuntu 21.10 and 22.04
kstars: symbol lookup error: kstars: undefined symbol: _ZN7SSolver10Parameters14convertFromMapE4QMapI7QString8QVariantE

I think this means the launcher icon is pointing to the wrong target - but I'm no expert

Same problem for me too

btw, Indi Web manager app can start the simulators without any issues.

However, recompiling from the github sources fixed the launch issues for me. I have a Celestron device connection issue now, which I haven't investigated.

KStars 3.5.9 is now out on the repo.

Unfortunately the original launching issue persists after upgrade. KStars will not start on Ubuntu 22.04

Cheers

Sorry replied too soon. Just updated again and it launches as expected.

Thanks

Solved ! Thank you @Jasem

Same here! Thanks for the fast reply and solving.
