It's something to do with calculating the day length or the dawn and dusk time. It may be that your dusk is after midnight? Could you turn on debug logging please, and see if there is any more output in the diags file?

Looking at those rise/set times, I suspect there is no end to dawn/dusk - ie twilight lasts all night.

For some reason the stack trace won't decode. It looks like a similar problem - what are your sunrise and sunset times now? Can you give me your latitude and longitude, please?

The sun is always up (according to the routines I use) and the code doesn't cope with that yet. I'll see if I can fix that.
