Re: 1.37.57: Unable to connect IP camera as monitor
(reolink) PoE "injector" that sits between the camera and the host? i've assumed it is doing nothing other than adding the power lead, but...? If you can safely open and look inside the PoE injector, you could find out! ;) On one hand, common sense says it's either a "ghetto" in...

Re: 1.37.57: Unable to connect IP camera as monitor
What's odd is that reolink puts some effort into describing use of RTSP, connecting with VLC, ONVIF, ... That's great. But if there are no ports open on the device, and no clue how to wake up the device, then that's not helpful :( Probably their official app does some kind of initial handshake. You...

Re: 1.37.57: Unable to connect IP camera as monitor
What are your current favorite ZM brands? I'm behind the times on these things. My cameras are D-Link, but old. They "support" browsers that understand the camera downloading some Active-X player thing (!) to see the live view. I ignore that totally and go to http://camera/video.cgi and a...

Re: 1.37.57: Unable to connect IP camera as monitor
Sorry to tell you that we only support the Windows and Mac Client currently. So we do not know how to and can not connect the cameras to your Linux system. Typical support response. In effect, they don't know anything beyond their scripted answers to typical user failures. You said the word "L...

Re: Zoneminder 1.36 daylight saving time
Changing the time in Ubuntu and then through the Zoneminder web interface worked perfectly. Thank you. Good to hear. Timezone changes are always a bit of a nuisance! UTC has the advantage of logs etc. always increasing in time, whereas a missing hour (spring) and a duplicate hour (autumn) can cause...

Re: Zoneminder 1.36 daylight saving time
Current time settings: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS: time system using UTC, currently 1 hour behind UK BST (DST) Zoneminder 1.36.33: time within Options > System > TIMEZONE set to 'Unset- use value in php.ini', and time within the log system display indicates UTC. My gut reaction is the two lines above are the...

Re: Fix STOPPED state after reboot
You're right. We probably ought to have the "right" instructions pinned somewhere, so when the question comes up we can just tell them where to look. OR, maybe a new "New to Zoneminder? Install tips." or similar would be where to put it. That is the most practical answer ... my ...

Re: Nubie needs help setting up zoneminder
Source path seems to only contain an IP address. That may be the problem. Question for anyone reading this ... does that "source path" need more flesh on the bones, something more like http://192.168.1.180/main.html?first=0 If you look at examples for source path for e.g. Hikivision camera...

Re: Fix STOPPED state after reboot
However, if you use the recommended script, that's in there. One of the recurring problems seems to be that there are definitive, tested and we-know-these-work instructions. Then, there are other sites with out of date, incomplete instructions. And finally, there are AI systems chomping through all...

Re: Nubie needs help setting up zoneminder
I always get the error "Failed to construct 'URL': Invalid URL" Post a screenshot of exactly what you have in the various boxes for the camera's setup. If you need to redact a password or something, try not to take out TOO much info ;) It's possible that ZM is trying to assemble the infor...

Re: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Table 'zm.Config' doesn't exist at /usr/share/perl5/ZoneMinder/Config.pm line 98.
The command that failed is to restore the backup you took.
I suspect you probably didn't take a backup as directed earlier up the page, and got a "zmdb.sql: No such file or directory" complaint. Which is fair enough, if the db was not present, or trashed, no point making a backup

Re: Configuring control of PTZ unclear?
Camera used to be 192.168.1.180, however browser won't load page http://192.168.1.180 Intercom camera used to be 192.168.1.100, however browser won't load page http://192.168.1.100.
