Ok Guys, I seem to have figured out what went wrong. So the images where taken and succesfully transfered. But somehow my local (on my mac) kstars instance messed up with the i/o drivers (local file operations). I always watched the images with GIMP, but when I accidentally tried to open them in kstars it showed up an error message stating "too many io drivers". So I did restart kstars but it still doesn't work, so I (and I normally never do it) restarted my mac and now everything seems to work. What is more interesting is, that I had this issue already last year and it went away without a reboot. But anyway, I think this is more something for the kstar developers and if a simple reboot will fix this issue I am good with it.

So thanks again for your support @AstroMuni and @Jasem Mutlaq

@Jasem Mutlaq The INDI Server is not running, so kstars (from my MAC) starts it remotely on the RPi (I can see it in the Webmanager). If I uncheck "INDI Web Manager" it won't connect.

@AstroMuni This is also my guess, but all the other equipment works fine

Is there any way to get more details in the logs?

And thanks for your support here

@AstroMuni: No it doesn't show up in the FITS Viewer afterwards but I have it on my local Mac Drive. But after further investigation i figured out it is a broken image (sorry for the confusion).

@Jasem: The log was from a Previews Session, but also the sequence doesn't work. Btw. I do have 2 cameras and none of then works in kstars (only in the stellarmate app).


Yesterday I got it working for some time (after several restarts of my Pi) and I hoped it is fixed somehow but nope, today the same issue again.

What's also interesting, if I use VPN directly on the RPi and use kstars there, everything works. Could it be some network issues?

Hey here,
I hope someone can help me with this. I have Stellarmate on an RPi and use most of the time the Stellarmate Android APP which works like a charm. But I would also love to use Kstars on my local Mac and connect remotely to Stellarmate INDI, everything seems to work but I am unable to capture any images. The interesting part is, that when I capture the images Kstars is notifying me that it was unsuccessful, but when I take a look in the folder the image was created and uploaded successful to my mac. I have no idea what goes wrong, so I hope someone here can help me ;)

Here is the logfile:
