What are you wanting/trying to do?

ssmtp and zmeventnotification are two different things.

I'm trying to debug but cannot find where to enable additional debugging. This is what gets logged in ZM's logs (zmesdetect_m1.log): 2020-06-14 19:29:25 zmesdetect_m1 26865 ERR Error was:<urlopen error [Errno -2] Name or service not known> utils.py 328 2020-06-14 19:29:24 zmesdetect_m1 26865 ERR Err...

OK. That got me the test picture. Hope I never see THAT in my driveway! :lol: With "fixes" in place I am now able to get an event picture pushed. There were several issues needing corrections: 1. In secrets.ini I had to change ZMES_PICTURE_URL to use "fid=1" from "fid=objdetect" because I'm not curr...

Can you do a simple ping to your ZM server using its FQDN via a cellular data path? When you state "WiFi" you need to clarify whether this is a connection to your local network or not. Your server's WAN connection is being provided, how? (what's the relation to that and to your local WiFi-served net...

What version were you last running in which things worked properly (that is, what version did you originally upgrade from)?

I thought only this kind of thing happened to me :o Does the ZM console come up/display in a web browser? Almost sounds like the web server doesn't know about ZM. Check https://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installationguide/ubuntu.html#easy-way-ubuntu-18-04-bionic : looks like perhaps step 7 ...

New installation of zmeventnotification (on Debian 10) with ZM 1.34.15. SSL certs are from/via Letsencrypt. I am not getting the push notification picture. Per the FAQ I have hard-coded an image (the one referenced in the FAQ), but no image is displayed on my Android phone. zmeventnotification.ini i...

Yikes! Missed this comment in the file: # Parameters: # polygon areas where object detection will be done. # You can name them anything except the keywords defined in the optional # params below. You can put as many polygons as you want per [monitor-<mid>] # (see examples). OK, so that's covered. Bu...

[Is this even the proper forum for discussing issues related to object detection (and zmeventnotification)?] Just getting zmeventnotification set up with object detection. Questions pertain to obectconfig.ini. In the examples given within the file it shows "my_driveway_perimeter=306,356 1003,341 107...

I believe that the answer is NO. BUT, if you happen to decide to use zmeventnotification you'll need to make sure that port 9000 is available.

^^^ I got pretty close to getting an OS and ZM upgrade to work, but there were errors that caused me grief. Ended up reinstalling from scratch. Yes, I know it's not what you WANT to do, I know that I certainly did not want to, but in the long run you'll feel better (lots of old atrifacts will be pur...

Going to say that this is resolved. That is, there is NO API issue. I still am logging socket errors every time I play back event videos. Videos will play, sometimes stopping and sometimes not; always, though, generates a socket error in the logs. Doesn't matter what UI I use. I'm going to just igno...

OK... What UI? I just discovered that zmNinja on my Android phone is not capable of playing back ZM events (MPEGs) even though a similar phone with same OS level can*: I'm breaking down and buying a newer phone. On this same phone video playback works in a web browser from ZM console if I manually s...

What happens if you disable the sub-stream, can you then view the main/HD stream? With shm at 80+% I'm thinking that you're really taxing things. What's your total capture rate (MB/s) look like? My system (NUC7i5) is running four cameras at 1280x720 set to MODECT (capturing as MPEG) and shm is 16% w...

Should be enough here to help guide you:

Sometimes one really has to dig into all the various log files in order to figure out where an issue is really originating.
