I'm about to embark on a Slackware-14 build and will be picking the brains of others wherever I can. Can you (lpallard) shed any light on which base packages need to be upgraded, as well as added? lpallard - Would you be so good as to do a Slackware-14 how-to for the wiki? I will if you don't. heh h...

Is this an upgrade in ZM versions for you? If so, look at the changelog and any upgrade requirements in the source tarball..

Hey folks. Man, has it been a long time since I've been around!! Feels good to be back. Don't know if it's much consolation to anyone working with ZM and X10, but I used to attack things from a different direction by using Heyu and it's scripting to call ZM functions - ie: motion detector sees somet...

Ya, you've got something wierd going on. zm/includes/functions.php is only 2249 lines long.

Just don't ask me what your problem is. Although I suspect the webdir directory you are specifying may be wrong. Try using --with-webdir=/srv/www/htdocs/zm

Heh heh... Uh, 1.24 was kind of "rushed out the door" so I'm sure Phil will be chasing these little "gotcha's" for some time to come yet. You may not want to believe everything you see for a while.

zmupdate.pl -f

resolved the issue.

That will update the databases. I'm not so sure about fixing unresolved symbol (library issues).

You can leave out most of the options you have supplied to configure as they are completely redundant. Try doing this - ./configure --help >HOWTO and then read the file called HOWTO . It'll explain all of the configure options, what the defaults are, and what you may need to supply on your own. The ...

One last update: To get Zoneminder to work, I had to fix a problem of the binaries in /usr/local/bin not finding the libraries in /usr/local/lib To do this I created the file /etc/ld.so.conf.d/zm.conf, and placed into it a single line: /usr/local/lib and then ran "ldconfig" and now Zonemi...

This is the configure option I am currently using: # ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/lib/mysql --with-ffmpeg=/usr/lib --with-extralibs="-lmp3lame -L/usr/lib/mysql" --with-webdir=/var/www/html --with-cgidir=/var/www/cgi-bin Any suggestions are much appreciated. Try ./configure --with-webdir=...

Hi guys, All of our servers run FreeBSD (6.2 or 7) and I was wondering what the process of installing ZoneMinder is. I know that there is a port for 1.23, is there one out yet for 1.24? I did a search but couldnt find anything. Thanks in advance Ryan Not being someone who is much more than aware of...

To the best of my knowledge there is no way to have this happen from the ZM end of things without you having done so intentionally with an external script. zmu -D will disable a monitor (put it to sleep) but I have no idea if that would turn the device name from green to red. Just a shot in the dark...

Your output from running zmu -d /dev/video0 -q -v is telling you everything you should need to know. It's a low resolution (320x240 max) 24 bit rgb camera. Looks to me to be a logitech unit and should work ok if you have it working properly with the kernel.. The report for the camera on /dev/video1 ...

See this - http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=13051 , specifically Phil's post - Posted: Tue Feb 10, 2009 5:05 pm . It should help you out some.

Phowarth - Just out of curiousity, what is the cpu load on your system with apache sitting idle (ie, no active connections)?

Better yet, what does "top -u apache" have to say about what is going on with cpu load?

enable server-status module and track apache's performance/stats with it. You can also turn "ExtendedStatus On" in apache conf. That can be found in /etc/httpd/extra/httpd-info.conf and is "off" by default. Uncomment the Include /etc/httpd/extra/httpd-info.conf statement on line...
