Debug mode

Gaia Sky includes a mode where more information is printed in the standard output (and the log files) to help locate and identify possible problems. This is called debug mode.

In order to run Gaia Sky in debug mode, you need to launch it from the command line (your terminal application of choice in Linux or macOS, PowerShell or cmd in Windows) using the -d or --debug flags.

On Linux or macOS, fire up your terminal, navigate to your Gaia Sky installation directory, and run:

./gaiasky --debug

On Windows, open PowerShell, navigate to your Gaia Sky installation directory, and run:

.\gaiasky.exe --debug

You will be able to see the log printed out in the terminal window. You can also recover the log files if you need to. More info in the logs section.
