Let's see if I can keep this somewhat coherent since I generally tend to try and help others find problems for themselves rather than trying to provide answers. :wink: I used synaptic to install all the missing files that the ./configure complained about - including the various Perl requirements. If...

Not being someone who has ever used ubuntu I have to ask. Do you actually have perl installed in /usr/local ? I've seen some (self created) installation issues with zm that seem to cause zm to complain about not being able to find zm.conf which can be misleading. Did you install 1.24 over a 1.23 ins...

I did just that, using svn from ffmpeg.: root@cosmos:~/ffmpeg# cat version.h #define FFMPEG_VERSION "SVN-r16286" and still receive the same error. Just a thought, but did you clean out the older version of ffmpeg before installing the newer version? If so (or not), did you then do a make ...

When creating new monitors (X10 support enabled) I'm getting this in my apache error log - [Thu Dec 11 12:34:34 2008] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] SQL-ERROR(38E75A): insert into TriggersX10 set MonitorId = '0', Activation = '', AlarmInput = '', AlarmOutput = '', referer: http://localhost/zm/index.php ...

Just for kicks tonight I decided I throw together a fresh Slackware 12.1 install with ZM 1.24 to see how far I'd get with a fresh and unpolluted install, and I'm seeing a few goofy (to me) things. As mentioned in my last post, if I set up a monitor using the logical settings for my setup (X10 nightw...

I'm not getting live "streamed" images. What I'm seeing in a monitor window is only being updated once every 15 seconds. Also, I'm getting 3 images across the top of the monitor window and the balance of the window is blank. Doesn't seem to matter what browser I use, locally or across the ...

After getting 1.24 to build (on Slack 12.1) and being very careful to set up a new db (named it zm2), installing into a separate "webroot" (as recommended) as well as installing to /usr/local, my 1.23.3 system (installed in /usr) got hosed anyway. After installing 1.24, 1.23.3 was dead in ...

Thanks Cordel.

ZM built fine this time around. Just had to upgrade x264 (install yasm) and ffmpeg to get it to build. And now it's tinker time

I ended up deciding to upgrade ffmpeg. Can someone who knows better please look over this configure run of ffmpeg and tell me if I have met all of the requirements for ZoneMinder ? install prefix /usr source path /usr/src/build/ffmpeg C compiler gcc .align is power-of-two no ARCH x86_32 (generic) bi...

Thanks majost. I upgraded the system (recent Slack install) with a bunch of stuff from the slacky.eu site to get ffmpeg and all of it's dependencies installed (why re-invent the wheel when the heavy lifting has already been done?) so your probably right that chances are I'm knackered without doing c...

I've seen these kinds of errors before. Do I know "the fix"? Nope, I'm not writing the code. But I'm sure I remember seeing these sorts of issues several years ago during the gcc-2.95.3 to gcc-3.X / kernel 2.2 to 2.4 transition period. Apparently ZM is undergoing changes in memory manageme...

Hi guys. Yesterday I managed to get 1.23 installed on Slackware 12.1 so tonight I though I'd take a run at ZM 1.24. I ran into a couple of minor glitches with the configure script which for the most part aren't overly concerning. The configure script is looking for declaration of _doprnt that looks ...

>> Am I doing something wrong? Yup, you are. You've got your include directories all messed up. By default (if I'm not mistaken) ffmpeg will install it's header files into separate directories just where from the look of the output of your configure run, the configure script is looking for them. Sol...
