--- Comment #5 from Philip Bartlett <phil.bartl...@optusnet.com.au> --- Hy, I tried your suggested change yesterday and it didn't work. However, after playing around, I got it partially working. I used the "Settings > Startup Wizard > Download Extra Data" to download the "ImagingPlanner Catalog1". Once this was installed, the ImagingPlanner launched and it began populating the targets table on the left ... then it crashes! I downloaded the imagingPlanner.cpp and .h from your merge request, but this also crashes. I then updated kstars on the mini-PC on my telescope to 3.7.4 stable. This PC is still running Kubuntu 24.04.1 LTS (my laptop was upgraded to Kubuntu 24.10) so I thought this would rule out anything that is related to 24.10. This also crashed, but because it is such a slow PC I could see what it was up too. It cycles, successfully, through five lists of objects (sizes 109, 95 151, 191 and 9), adding them to the table, and then crashes. But, if you don't blink!!!, it does seem to update the altitude vs time plot just before the crash. After restarting kstars and running imagingPlanner it crashes immediately, so presumably it has saved the targets list to a database and doesn't need to perform the initial setup. I have very little experience with c++ and no experience with the QT environment (I have a supercomputing background with Fortran) but am happy to put some DPRINT(stderr,"message") statements throughout the code to trace where it is getting to if you can direct me to which functions in imagingPlanner.cpp might be worth focusing on based on my description of where it got up to before the crash. Or any other suggestions for trying to help debug it. FYI, there is some stderr output when I run kstars from the terminal. After launching kstars I get: kf.i18n: KLocalizedString: Using an empty domain, fix the code. msgid: "unnamed object" msgid_plural: "" msgctxt: "" kf.i18n: KLocalizedString: Using an empty domain, fix the code. msgid: "star" msgid_plural: "" msgctxt: "" MESA: error: ZINK: failed to choose pdev glx: failed to create drisw screen Call to writableLocation without an application-based location. There are MANY of the kf.i18n: errors that I haven't included. After the crash it shows: KCrash: crashing... crashRecursionCounter = 2 KCrash: Application Name = kstars path = /usr/bin pid = 9019 KCrash: Arguments: /usr/bin/kstars KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexec/drkonqi MESA: error: ZINK: failed to choose pdev glx: failed to create drisw screen I hope this helps, and I look forward to further ideas.
