Pete Heywood created a new topic ' Images removed from /tmp?' in the forum. 4 years ago

Hi there,

I'm very new to all this - Raspberry Pi, Astroberry and Astrophotography, but having some fun. I was playing around last night, trying to get some images captured using CCD Ciel - as I could not get Ekos to download any images from my Altair GPCam2. CCD Ciel worked fine, and it was storing images in /tmp as per the default. However, when I started it up this morning, the files have all gone from /tmp. Is this part of a shutdown script or garbage collection? It was a useful exercise anyway I guess. No idea if this is OS behaviour or CCD Ciel.

Actually a quick test shows that all files in /tmp appear to be cleared out - so having /tmp as the default for ccd ceil is a bad idea!

Cheers
