Hello,
when I connect my camera with the autoconnection the mount it doesn't connect, the log is the following (of course che mount is connected and powered on):

I don't have any J disk on my pc...
How could I solve my issue?
Thank you

Hi,

no need to worry about the J drive showing in the log - that's actually recording the location of the code used to build some of the ASCOM libraries that go into SharpCap.

From the original error message and the 'NotRegisteredException', the most likely thing to cure the issue will be to uninstall the GreenSwampServer and then install it again. A 'repair' of the installation may also work. Something seems to have gone amiss with the GSS installation that is stopping SharpCap from connecting to the driver and a reinstall/repair should help.

I would also suggest making sure that all your software is up-to-date - SharpCap, GreenSwampServer and the ASCOM platform.

cheers,

Robin

Hi,
thank you for your answer:
I've just upgraded everything and now I will try to reinstall GSS.
I will be back to you to give you a feedback.

Bye

Hi,
it works thank you.
Now, maybe, I will try to schedule something to uninstall and install GSS automatically :)

Bye

Hi,

the loss of registration isn't something that should really happen - it tends to mean that the registry keys associated with the code needed to access the ASCOM driver have been removed or changed. Things like registry cleanup programs, installing or uninstalling the GSS software (or other software if the other installer is badly written) or rolling back windows to an earlier state could cause this, but general use should not.

cheers,

Robin

Hi,
I have an other issue with GS Server 1.0.8.6 and the last SharpCap:
when I connect SharpCap GS Server I see "Connected Application: 1" but the mount doesn't connect automatically.
Last week (my last test) it was connecting automatically.

I don't know where is the issue.
Thank you

Hi,

assuming that you haven't got anything else set up to talk to the GS Server, then the 1 connected application will be SharpCap, which indicates that everything is working as it should for communication between SharpCap and GS Server.

If that is the case then I think you need to look for the cause of failure to auto connect to the hardware somewhere within GS Server - check settings or options, or possibly go back to an older version of GS Server if you have upgraded recently. I must admit that I haven't seen any problems like this, but I am still on version 1.0.6.5

thanks,

Robin
