Hello community - I am back. To be honest - I actually gave up and decided to do a full re-installation of Ubuntu 7.04 on my experimental Linux system and after completion I followed the instruction from the wiki to install the ZM 1.22.3 package. And guess what: IT WORKED !!!! After establishing the...

Hello you Linux guru's out there - I need your help. some months ago I installed zoneminder on Ubuntu 6.10 following the insructions on the ZM-Wiki. Everything worked great and I started already to adjust the zones to get alarms when any cats (or other animals) got close to my Koi-Pond. Well - I kno...

Hopefully you don't need the -dev package . . . the one you want is either libmysqlclient15 or mysqlclient15off (that's what ubuntu calls it) running "apt-cache search libmysqlclient" should show up what's available. The package manager of my Ubuntu 7.04 claims that libmysqlclient15off is...

Can you try running the zmfix line from the command line and see if there's any more useful messages? i.e. "sudo -u www-data /usr/local/bin/zmfix" hm - strange - when I enter above command into the terminal window - it returns: /usr/local/bin/zmfix: error while loading shared libraries: l...

Thank you to zoneminder and to boaba for the comments. I recently started my experiments with one surveillance camera TV7043 - which is mounted so, that the whole pond is visible in the 78deg lens angle. At the moment I am playing around with the zone settings - trying to get rid of the false alarms...

Due to very limited Linux experiance I was somehow assuming I am the problem :oops: Glad to see that others do see the same. I'll try the hint and set nph-zms to zms in options/pat...

Hi there, after cats and Heron's have stolen several times my expensive fishes from my small pond - I decided to start a new home project. My vision: A solid installed camera is adjusted that it oversees the whole pond and the mask is set to detect activities of the pond and the edge. The plan is to...
