hello v.mazurenko, I have also seen this error recently as well. for a camera using "Remote" I have to use zmc -m 2 from a terminal and then it works. Puppy Linux Tahr 6.0.5 ZM 1.35 zoneminder-master I upgraded from 1.30.4 which had worked perfectly. I am testing with the set up so somethi...

I might have a generic PTZ script you can work with. These are present in /usr/share/perl5/ZoneMinder/Control . /usr/share/perl5/ZoneMinder/Control/Wanscam.pm /usr/share/perl5/ZoneMinder/Control/WanscamHW0025.pm perhaps these can be the templates to a script that will work with Wansview example: /us...

I understand why you would like it to remain with basic auth.

you are on version 1.34+ correct? have you also enabled Options->System->OPT_USE_LEGACY_API_AUTH ?

I don't think that is it though.

Sorry tassiepomme, I did not see the post until now! I'm glad you solved it. I set the time in the php.ini to match the system clock and then in ZM I leave it UNSET Otherwise if the clocks and time zones are not matched correctly with the system the event file names get an incorrect timestamp and yo...

I am not at all familiar with the device but I will check out some specs to see what can be done.

very cool...

look into using zmtrigger,pl to start and stop events from external scripts. I use it to interface between an X10 usb transceiver(CM19a) and ZM to start events on specific cameras by remote wireless X10 motion detectors communicating with the CM19a

You are not alone. I see these errors when something does not have the correct permissions for example. But also it could indicate something is missing or the /cgi-bin is not reachable. Check the config files in /etc/zm.
This error does indicate that you are close to a successful startup of ZM

there has been changes to methods of passing authority. Take a look in Options/Systems that the legacy authority system is enable

@bbunge I did not know about ZM not running in 19.10...but I do have it running in Void Linux which is using the very latest mariaDB. The main issue I think is the mysql query functions have some syntax depreciated for example replace every mysql_* function call with its equivalent mysqli_* on this ...

Thanks! I am reviewing some of the different control scripts so this info helps!

Hello,
I use the montage review view which sizes all the monitors to fit the window. The montage and montage review are presently being reviewed for rework and improving the code at this time.
