I suggest you try setting up your camera in daylight, as it's MUCH easier to see what you're doing!

Point the telescope at a distant target such as a tree or building on the horizon, and then try fitting your camera and see if you can reach focus. Make a note of the set-up that works - extension tubes, focuser position, etc.

Hope this helps!
