Hello Ic0n, once in awhile on some systems right after installing ZM and importing the zm_create.sql I also need to install the very last zm_update.sql manually and that fixes these errors. Only on some systems though and I thought since I'm mostly installing ZM on the outer fringes operating system...

Hello! have you checked the system clock and looked at the setting for TimeZone in Options->Systems in Zoneminder? also a restart of the mysql server may be needed to sync the time between the servers. I may be way off but it's a start The time being correct is important for the way the events are n...

end date condition needs to more specific. -3 hour or -3 day otherwise what is the date - time comparing too?

I like the idea... a place for fine tuning and advancing.

Hello! I think you need to enable the email in the Options. Once enabled the option will appear in the filter controls

ZM 1.30.4 runs well in Bionic. Maybe try and email the dev's at Mediabridge Technology GmbH.

I've never tried out the app yet, looks interesting but sounds like it needs some love

no I don't think so, and I have seen this before as well.
Try in the mysql to import the /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_update-1.35.1.sql or /usr/local/share/zoneminder/db/zm_update-1.35.1.sql again.

also try Did this appear right after the upgrade to 1.35.1 ?

interesting...I am seeing this as well on 2 different systems. Check the permissions for /var/cache/zoneminder/event/ and then each individual monitor directory which corresponds to the monitor number. In my case the permissions of the newly created directories end up starting out as 440 but should ...

Using /etc/zm/conf.d/zmcustom.conf is the correct solution in this case. I also use https://zmserver/cgi-bin instead of https://zmserver/zm/cgi-bin and I am using 'webuser' instead of 'www-data' so using the configuration file, which remains static and unaffected by updates and upgrades of ZM, is th...

the url http://<myserver>/zm/api for checking the API function is not correct and will not work.

In a browser login to ZM open another tab and enter the url you should see the API and ZM version as a reponse

I see, I think in the docs on the API the authorization methods are updated. Do you have the Options->System->OPT_USE_LEGACY_API_AUTH enabled?


Have you checked out https://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/1.32.3/api.html? It has some good tips for communicating with the API

those are insects!! Probably moths....I have it all the time... they bounce the infra red light and go so fast that it will streak the video with infra red light lens flare you could add zmeventnotification server and do object detection perhaps to filter out the bugs. Not sure yet on how the object...

what happens if you in a browser manually test the API with https://xxx.xx.xx/zm/api/host/getVersion.json or http://xxx.xx.xx/zm/api/host/getVersion.json? first open the ZM web console and login then try the above..you should see a response with the API and ZM version Also what version of OS? versio...

I will have to look way back in this forum under an older version of ZM. I had written a script that limited only one message per alarm event and posted the code. Maybe I can find it again because I think you can modify it or use the same mechanism for your application. Someone had a similar problem...

I will look at it and see what there is and report back
