Unable to platesolve with a different scope

Hi all,

I have been experimenting with an RC8 (1624mm FL) recently and have not been successful with platesolving. Previously local or failover platesolving has never failed me when I was using a TSA120 (<900mm FL). I tried changing the image scale in the Camera tab and Telescope tab, but it made no difference.

I follow instructions to install local ANSVR solver and solving locally, no luck. Through SGP’s remote astrometry.net solver, no luck, needless to say the default PlateSolve2 is also no luck.

Here are 2 log files. One from last night (plate solving was around 21:45): https://www.dropbox.com/s/qpjc2bak54bwm7i/sg_logfile_20190426214301.txt?dl=0, and one from now (the entire session is for platesolving): https://www.dropbox.com/s/0y17nlviyd34ocl/sg_logfile_20190427164930.txt?dl=0.

I also tried to solve the image via astrometry.net website, and that worked, here’s a screen capture of it:

Please tell me what I am doing wrong. Thanks.
