Hi

I am a new french user of AstroimageJ, friend of Guy, with some knowing about ImageJ. We have to experiment exoplanet observations at the begenning of August, in an observatory 2930 m high in the Alpes mountains.

I read the Dennis Conti paper about exoplanet and I try to do the example with his files: bias, dark, flat and ScienceImages.

I have a trouble with WCS. I cannot run the process up to the last image. It fails after 10 or 29 or 40 slices.
I use my personal key to access astrometry.net; I set up number of stars to 15.
I try to run WCS on raw images or calibrated images with the same issue.

I try the process with Ubuntu 16.04LTS and Windows 10 ... just in case. With the latter,  memory management is very very poor ! I can't load all the images into the memory unlike Ubuntu on the same machine !

Thank you for your support.
