Yep, it solved the polaris.fits I gave it . Just need to start tweaking settings, number of index files to use etc as this was a slow solve: 2017-07-07 13:26:09,849 - astrotortilla - INFO - Connecting to camera... 2017-07-07 13:26:09,865 - astrotortilla - INFO - Exposing: 4.00 seconds 2017-07-07 13:26:32,384 - astrotortilla - INFO - Reading image from camera 2017-07-07 13:26:32,384 - astrotortilla - INFO - Solving... 2017-07-07 13:26:32,493 - astrotortilla - INFO - 1 [main] bash 3480 find_fast_cwd:...

Thanks Antii. I've some good news. I tried a new path to solve the problem. I uninstalled Astrotortilla from windows then downloaded AstroTortilla-0.7.0.0-x86 and did a fresh install. I pointed to one of the examples files and the first attempt at a solve looked good but complained of no index files ( i hadn't loaded any into data directory). Loading them in and repeating attempt its finally solving against the index files I've loaded. I still need to tweak settings and optimise performance and perhaps...

Appears to me there's a bug related to "Didn't understand this config file line.." If I point to data.save the original folder for index files in astrometry.net solver, I get that didn't understand message curiously giving the file as "data.save instead of "data.save" in other words the interpreter is missing an apostrophe....no solution found yet

OK I've narrowed down the problem to the "2017-07-07 09:55:40,897 - astrotortilla - INFO - backend.c:289:backend_parse_config_file_stream: Didn't understand this config file line: "C:/Users/Colm/AppData/Local/cygwin_ansvr/usr/share/astrometry/mydata " Above error given to problem with line pointing to location of index files. I've put the index files in mydata at above location but obviously in linux backend.cfg requires another way to point to that file. i'm no linux expert. I'm stuck at this point...

https://sourceforge.net/p/astrotortilla/home/FAQ/#how-do-i-install-the-astrometrynet-plate-solver OK I see a possible solve above. I've setup astrometry.net plate solver with info above. Currently downloading index files copied to new location for this plate solver. I don't see anything so far on how to configure settings in AT for the new plate solver... but I'll keep looking around....

Hi, I believe the local astrometry.net solver can be configured some way to be used with Astrotortilla. Are there steps available to do this?

Hello, I've installed latest 64bit ver on win 10 over the past few days and though I've downloaded most of the index files when I attempt using eqmod simulator and try to load example image, logfile shows in a few seconds a failure to solve. No extracting sources or loading of index files and running the log in debug mode I get the following output message. 2017-07-02 23:20:49,289 - astrotortilla.AstrometryNetSolver - DEBUG - Executing: solve-field -b /etc/astrometry/backend.cfg --sigma 1 --no-plots...

Tried it again last pm/am and it performed flawlessly. This time I double checked...
