ZM 1.26.5 with Ubuntu 14.04 nightly release

Post by bbunge »

Happy to report that ZM 1.26.5 is provided with Ubuntu14.04 and I was able to get it to work...almost.

Installed Ubuntu 14.04 from the nightly build 64 bit .iso

Installed Zoneminder (apt-get install zoneminder)

Created Symbolic Link: ln -s /etc/zm/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/zoneminder.conf

Added User: adduser www-data video

Added a USB camera in the ZM web page.

Camera works and is capturing movement but will not display the video when you click on the camera name or try to replay the motion capture. I should mention that the Logitech camera does work on Ubuntu 12.04, 13.04, 13.10 with ZM 1.25X and 1.26X.

Suggestions?

Hi.

I had exactly same problem. Using debian testing. Webcams working but no streaming.

I thinked this was related to /cgi-bin issue and was it.

I try with suggestions here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... ug/1247506 and here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... ug/1159361 but no way.

Also this errors always in log:

socket_sendto( /tmp/zm/zms-553308s.sock ) failed: No such file or directory

getStreamCmdResponse stream error: socket_sendto( /tmp/zm/zms-413814s.sock ) failed: No such file or directory - checkStreamForErrors()

How to fix:
CGI is not enabled in Ubuntu 13.10 by default. Enable it this way: sudo a2enmod cgi

cameras working now!!
