Re: Bind mounts for existing NFS share

Ugh... Ok, for anyone who might run into this problem, I ran systemctl status /mnt/nfs, and similar for the bind mounts. Bind mounts showed as inactive (dead) and when I tried to enable and start them, it wasn't able, and when I looked at status of /mnt/nfs, it had errors with "mount 7 failed t...

Bind mounts for existing NFS share

I'm wondering if anyone has had similar issues: I've installed a new VM with Ubuntu 22.04, NGINX, and zoneminder 1.36. I have an NFS share that I had previously been using with 1.34 on 18.04. # Mount /mnt/nfs mount point # Should be stored in /etc/systemd/system/mnt-nfs.mount [Unit] Description=Zone...

Re: NFS mount? No video

Well, maybe I'm some kind of moron, but apparently, using X264 encoding is the only thing that works. H264 passthrough is not acceptable for using with an RTSP stream.

Re: NFS mount? No video

After a bit of playing around, there may be no problem with NFS. I had read about possible solaris issues with NFS permissions, but on further investigation, my /mnt/nfs directory is owned by 'nobody' but the zoneminder/events directory and subdirectories are owned by www-data, as they should be. JP...

Re: NFS mount? No video

I have stills and directories already though. Wouldn't that suggest it has permissions to write? I wonder why else there wouldn't be videos written. Are there any issues with video being saved that have to do with ubuntu or nginx?

NFS mount? No video

I'm running an NGINX / 1.34 setup which seems to be working ok, aside from one main problem that I have no stored video. Not stored, no files other than stills when I tell it to store them. My storage is done with a systemd mount of my ZFS server, mounting nfs. I've done a bit of searching, and I wo...

Littlelf camera

Anyone try using this wired/wifi cam? Says it’s onvif compatible? Has an Ethernet port as well.

Cheap baby monitor / nanny-cam

Looking for a zoneminder compatible wifi or ethernet cam that I can mount up in the corner of a room. Doesn't have to be fancy, no need for pan-tilt, just has to work in low light.

Anyone have something that's worked well for them?

Re: Centos8 nginx can't get it installed

I gave up on Centos for zoneminder. Turfed the VM, and had ubuntu / LEMP running nginx in a couple hours. Centos obviously doesn't get enough attention here.

Centos8 nginx can't get it installed

I've had a couple of swings at installing ZM 1.34 on Centos8 vm. No luck at all. It either fails when I start nginx (commented out lines about SSL) and/or when I start zoneminder. -Has anyone installed on Centos8 that can tell me what I might be doing wrong? At least confirm whether it's possible to...

Re: CentOS 8 cannot install zoneminder

I'm in the same boat. I'm trying to use NGINX. I can follow the installation instructions up until I get to start NGINX, and I get errors. This has got to be the most clunky software I've ever tried to install...
