Hi, Is there a way to prevent access to the index.php from within the browser? Noticed today that if I simply put the ip address for where zm runs I in effect get access to .../www/zoneminder/index.php I.e <ip address>/zm/index.php displays zm web interface but if I simply put in <ip address>/ as th...

Just tried *pkg upgrade* and no new release made available - a few other packages, but zm still sits as zoneminder-1.34.9

I highly recommend you update. There have been fixes since .9 Update to...? Thought I were on the latest "stable" release... But ok, if there's an update fair enough. Any idea whats going on here ???? *log errors again* 2020-06-17 00:20:06 web_php 74368 ERR Timed out waiting for msg /var/...

So, to put some actual information in this discussion.... the event path breaks down like so: /var/db/zoneminder/events/<monitor_id>/<date>/<event id>/ the log file zms_e1 is the logs generated by viewing event # 1. So it's files will be in /var/db/zoneminder/events/4/2020-05-31/1/ ZM thinks that f...

I've implemented this with an Arduino Mega, ENC28J60 module, and some switches. If I was to do it again, I'd use an ARM based board (was some issues with the TCP/IP library, and encryption / memory management). Because I had 20+ cameras, managing run states ended up being too much added complexity....

Hi, First of all, Im new to security cameras - so try to keep that in mind... Had a thought today based on the following assumption... 1. House *inside and out fitted with x number of cameras covering the internal and external premises* 2. About to leave the house and want a quick easy way to alarm ...

You may also be able to ignore the log errors. It may be a superfluous message, and logging on zm can be disabled. This is a good idea if you have an otherwise working system, as logging taxes the system / HDD. How do you turn off logging? Don't like the idea as a general solution, since there migh...

I cant see FreeNAS having anything to do with logging going into a spin on a jpg that never ever even got created! But assuming this is a file expected, why is the log turning this around, and around indefinitely resulting in a significantly overhead when it comes to i/o and processing? Dont seem ri...

Hi, Thanks for posting this info - in part resolved the issue for me. Also noticed this in the logs "Can't locate MIME/Entity.pm in @INC" resulting in cron job failing to start. Turned out that I had to install MIME::Entity perl module that never got installed by default. Resolution to MIM...

Anyone that know what the problem is when the log keep sending repeated statements like this...? 2020-05-31 15:41:51 zms_e1 103016 ERR Can't open /var/db/zoneminder/events/4/2020-05-31/1/00038-capture.jpg: No such file or directory zm_eventstream.cpp 679 When checking the system I noticed that there...

Then there would be no point having "states" if they are just other ways of saying start and stop. Agree, hence confused about the whole "feature" :shock: :?: It seem to work somehow though, but I only manage this by using "Nighttime" (run state that change the cameras...

I read a post outlining these modes (Daytime/Nighttime), but the way I see it, these modes just replaces the start/stop states anyways. Example: Daytime state associated with Stop state Nighttime state associated with Start state Setting up a cron task to schedule these new states # minute (0-59), #...

Thanks for the heads up. Been tinkering going down the ssmtp path, but thought a fully working postfix should work with zm. After all its working perfectly from the command line. Im not sure if theres something else I missed - docu points towards trigger an event, but then again, Ive come across sta...

Is this a common issue or a damn difficult issue to resolve with zm? Really confused with 26 views so far but not a single comment, suggestion .... or anything :shock: If someone have a solution that differs from the path I went down, I would appreciate that just as well - don't really care what tra...

Im probably not the first one asking for this, but its such an obvious thing to add. Rather than monitor all the time, it would be a great feature if all or selected cameras could be turned on/off based on time of day. It could also be useful to extend this feature to include a calender where specif...
