new install of 1.26.5 not working

So after quite some time trying to get this working on Fedora 20, I bailed on it and tried Ubuntu. The most recent doc lists it for 12.10, but that's long outdated. I downloaded 14.04 LTS, and the docs for 12.10 seemed to work fine. However, I can't view any of my cams. When I select any of them (or...

Re: install issues on Fedora 20

Well, I hacked it into a state that it would RUN, but I can't setup monitors. I assume it's because of one of the configs in zm.conf (which had to have every line in it added before the service would start). The only error in /var/log/messages is: Aug 12 22:29:10 localhost zmfix[3843]: ERR [Can't st...

install issues on Fedora 20

It looks like the docs aren't entirely accurate for the README.Fedora in Fedora 20. There is no longer a mysqld-server, it's now called maria. But that's just minor compared to what I'm now running into. I've got at least a dozen things I've had to add to zm.conf because it bombs when trying to star...

Re: purgewhenfull not working

Never mind....found it. Just for my own future reference (and in case it's helpful), you need to SAVE it, not just SUBMIT. When you save you get prompted for the option to run in background. It doesn't appear to run at all until you do this.

purgewhenfull not working

I had to reinstall my ZM system (still running on Fedora 14, because I had issues trying to get it running on Fedora 18). The PurgeWhenFull filter doesn't appear to run. I noticed that there's no "run in background" option (there was in the past). I'm now on 1.24.2. Am I missing something ...

Re: Fedora Core 15

THe zm_create should have setup the database, in Fedora (earlier versions, anyways). Did you reload mysql (mysqladmin reload) after creating the database? I got too frustrated with FC15 and just reinstalled FC14. Which is a bummer, because 14 won't be supported once 16 is released and 17 goes Alpha.

Fedora Core 15

Can somebody please update the wiki/docs on how to get this running in Fedora Core 15. This has changed a fair amount from previous Fedora releases. Core 16 (currently in Alpha) will likely be the same setup as 15, as well.

reinstalled - now getting "Access Denied"

I've probably installed this dozens of times now, but have never had this happen. This is with 1.24.3-4 in Fedora Core 15. This hasn't happened in previous releases, so I'm assuming I'm missing a simple step somewhere. ZM doesn't start. I get the following errors: [root@zm etc]# service zoneminder s...

Re: Backup/Restore Zoneminder config

PacoLM, I've been asking for this "feature" since 1.22, maybe even 1.21. ;) There used to be a script called "backup_zm" that would do something similar, but this was dropped very early on. It wasn't an official script, and I can't remember who wrote it. After spending the better...

Re: ZM stops recording events, SQL error

I updated the config for phpmyadmin and I can't seem to get into the 'zm' database. So I tried via CLI, and get: [root@zm db]# mysql -uzm Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 337 Server version: 5.1.56 Source distribution Copyright (c) 2000, 2010, Orac...

Re: ZM stops recording events, SQL error

I think I just made it worse:

Sep 7 19:45:01 zm zmaudit[2815]: FAT [Can't execute: Incorrect key file for table './zm/Events.MYI'; try to repair it]

Uh oh.

Going to try phpmyadmin now...

ZM stops recording events, SQL error

After running fine for weeks, ZM stopped recording events. All processes start fine and start processing, then I eventually get this: Sep 7 04:44:31 zm zma_m4[1534]: INF [BackYard: 800 - Gone into alarm state] Sep 7 04:44:31 zm zma_m4[1534]: ERR [Can't insert event: Duplicate entry '0' for key 'Arch...

Re: how to move from http to https?

Thanks. I'm also running Fedora Core (14 or 15, can't remember), so this should work.

how to move from http to https?

Just wondering if there is an easy way to move ZM from just using http to https? Self-signed cert would be enough. I don't like using clear text for login, as my site does get probed pretty frequently, and I'm sure it will be compromised at some point.
