ok, we're getting to a different topic from the crash, but here's a tip about PHD2. Assuming your PHD2 profile is setup correctly, then start the PHD2 app but DON'T connect. Just bring up PHD2 on the desktop. Then, assuming your Ekos profile is correct for PHD2, go into the guide tab and push the connect button. That should connect Ekos to PHD2, and PHD2 to the mount and camera. Sometimes the state machine between the two (Ekos & PHD2) can get confused. If this happens, just disconnect from the Ekos side, and reconnect again via the guide tab connect button. Once you are connected, it should stay connected. IMO, you probably should get into the habit of disconnecting and reconnecting from the Ekos guide tab (not the PHD2 side) if you don't already. I've seen it work fine connecting from PHD2 to Ekos, but I experience more problems with interface states when done that way.
