I found the problem. I had to change the storage setting for each camera under the General tab to my dedicated hard drive. I thought just changing it under the options/storage tab would be enough.

I have 4 cameras all set to mocord and a 4 tb drive for zm. In the console all cameras say capturing and alarm frames are all set to best, high sensitivity. Under storage it's set to frames only and camera pass through. For some reason it's only recording the current day when alarm frames are trigge...

I had to reinstall zm 1.32.3 on Deb 10. I followed the steps from the wiki for adding a dedicated hard drive but nothing is being recorded unless I force an alarm. The web console shows capturing and all camera's are set to mocord.
Thanks for any help

Another program was saving files to my boot drive, so I fixed that problem and now have plenty of space. So now I just need to know how to fix this error: Unable to connect to ZM db.SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory.
Thanks

I'm running Debian 10 with zm 1.32. My boot drive is 127GB and I have a separate 4TB drive set up for zm. The highest I've seen the percentage go for the storage drive is 7% according to zm, but something is doing is filling my boot drive to the point I have no space left and now the system is causi...

Everything seems to be working fine now except the Classic Skin. Changing those settings still has no effect.

I made the changes you suggested. In the ZM log I get this error repeatedly 2019-07-26 11:48:37 web_php 17723 FAT Can't create frame images from video because there is no video file for this event at (/mnt/surveillance/zoneminder/3/2019-07-26/1223/1223-video.mp4 /usr/share/zoneminder/www/views/image...

The attached screen shots show my current settings. The classic skin setting still has no effect. The output from ls -l is
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 26 04:07 zoneminder. Where do I check and see if there's a timezone problem?

Hello I'm using ver 132.3 and Debian 10. Clicking the 'classic' radio buttons for both skin and default css doesn't change anything. How can I get the classic skin back? Coming from ver 1.30.4 the current one is far less intuitive. I also installed a new hard drive just for ZM. Under the storage lin...

I created the file per the wiki and it has all the correct information.

Following the directions, after I run this command: a2enconf zoneminder I get this error:
ERROR: Conf zoneminder not properly enabled: /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/zoneminder.conf is a real file, not touching it

I'm trying another fresh install. When I get to this step: sudo dpkg -i deb-multimedia-keyring_2016.8.1_all.deb I get the following error message: dpkg: warning: 'ldconfig' not found in PATH or not executable dpkg: warning: 'start-stop-daemon' not found in PATH or not executable dpkg: error: 2 expec...

I did a fresh install in a virtual machine and got it running. However, I'm not able to add a camera. Nothing happens when I click on the Add button.

I uninstalled zoneminder and did a fresh install following the updated instructions. I can log in to and create a database outside of zoneminder without a problem. But zoneminder still gives me the error: Unable to connect to ZM db.could not find driver

The version is PHP 7.3.4-2
