What file system is on your NFS? If it is not EXT something I can understand the error. It is almost impossible to cover all the scenarios folks will use. I've tested those instructions several ways within my hardware limitations. Have also been able to store events to a NTFS format USB drive on my ...

That is because 18.10 only supports 1.30.4 as of now.

edit actually Cosmic is in the ZoneMinder 1.32 PPA

Zoneminder uses its own user and password. Yes, it can be changed but does not pose a security risk for most users. Dumping the database does not mean the entire Mariadb. https://www.liquidweb.com/kb/delete-a-m ... mand-line/

Likely you did not set up LAMP correctly. Which Ubuntu 18 are you using? What install instructions did you use?

Did you drop the prior zm database? You may be farther ahead to start over with a fresh Linux install.

#!/bin/sh clear read -p "This script installs Zoneminder 1.30.4 on Ubuntu 16.04 AMD64 with Mariadb installed. This uses install packages that were downloaded from the Zoneminder PPA...

Recommend you go back to 1.30.4. Will mean you uninstall your current version of Zoneminder and drop the am database. See the wiki for an install script for 1.30.4 on your Ubuntu version.

You may be running out of memory depending upon the camera resolution you are using. Your database needs extra resources after it runs a while. You also should create another user besides admin with full permissions then delete admin. Also, I do not recommend running on a VM for other than testing.

The procedure was changed on the wiki this morning. There are differences from the STDs Debian install. Suggest you start with a fresh Raspbian and try again.

Did not get an ONVIF error on my fresh Pi install. Use a modified install procedure: Install additional LAMP components Mariadb server (recommended) apt install php mariadb-server php-mysql libapache2-mod-php7.0 apache2 Secure Mariadb, create root password et. al. mysql_secure_installation Edit sour...

ONVIF monitor does not always work on this version of Zoneminder. Likely not just an issue with the Pi. You are better off using VLC or an Android ONVIF app.

I will fire up my Pi tomorrow to see if I get the same error.

May not be exactly what you want but could be a start.

Wow, a blast from the past! I bailed on ZM 1.32.3 and Debian Sid as it proved too unstable: back to running ZM 1.30.4 on Debian Stretch. I did, however, get things working, though kept getting database crashes; so, this combination, IMO, is not ready for prime time (and I would discourage others fr...

I have the same problem on v1.30.4 started on Raspberry Pi 3B (Raspbian-Stretch distributive) "http://server/zm/api/host/getVersion.json" shows me empty page :( Zmninja works well with Zoneminder on a Pi with Raspbian. Make sure you use the Debian 9 install instructions, updated 17FEB19 for Pi, on ...
