You did not say where the buttons were that did not work. Assuming you meant the buttons in an event view, I did a test with my production server, Bionic with ZM 1.34.2 viewing an event. All the buttons worked for me, rename to export. You may want to check the zm database for correct permissions my...

Installed 1.34.0 on a Raspberry pi 4 running a clean install of Rasbian using https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Debian_10_B ... om_ZM_Repo. No problems, but ZM says 1.34.2 is out and a look at the repo confirms that. However sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade keep the same version. Anybody any ideas ??...

Are you using the zmrepo?

I have not done an upgrade on Buster but have 1.34.0 running on a pi 3b+ and 1.34.2 on an i5 quad core with 8 GB RAM.

It is possible that the database did not fully upgrade.

Are you running on a Pi?

What database server are you running?
Apache2 or NGINX?
How did you do the upgrade? Did you stop Zoneminder first?
Have you tried restarting the PC?

How do I increase the RAM of Docker?
Under OS, you mean to run Zoneminder under Ubuntu?

Google is your friend for your Docker questions.

Yes, without Docker.I also feel that the NAS is not powerful enough to do a decent job with Zoneminder and all the other processes you expect a NAS to do.

If you are running in Docker you need to increase RAM for Docker.

Better yet, dump Docker and just install Zoneminder under the OS.

With the release of Ubuntu 20.04, Fossa, due within two months I decided to see if I could get Zoneminder installed on the Nightly Build. I discovered that Fossa currently has Zoneminder 1.32.x in its repository but I wanted to use 1.34.2. So I downloaded the Eoan 1.34.2 files from the ppa and insta...

I would not recommend Zoneminder 1.32.x as the new version 1.34.x is released. See: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ubuntu_Server_or_Desktop_Zoneminder_1.34.x#Install_Zoneminder_1.34.x_on_Ubuntu_16.04_with_shell_script I would use Mariadb-server over MySQL. Google shows the PHP version to be 7.0 althoug...

I upgraded a Bionic 1.30.4 box today with about 60K events. i5 quad core with 16GB RAM. It took a while, too. But it was a successful upgrade!

Just checked my latest Ubuntu Zoneminder production server. /var/cache/zoneminder is at www-data:www-data (set by the Zoneminder install)

As a reminder for those using additional storage such as another HD or remote NAS the storage directory on the drive/device needs to be owned by www-data

Prior version of my install procedure and install script contained a "Fix Permissions: chown -R www-data:www-data /usr/share/zoneminder/" step. It has been brought to my attention that this could allow the www-data user to write in this area which is not a good thing. To correct this on your system ...

There are a couple of other things that while not necessary can improve apache performance. a2enmod headers a2enmod expires The following is not required and is not advised. It would allow the apache process to alter zoneminder, inject code, etc. chown -R www-data:www-data /usr/share/zoneminder/ Ma...
