Some Cameras Work, Some Don't

[sazv]

I had a working 11-ip-camera setup under 1.26, and I moved to a fresh install of 1.28 on Ubuntu 14.04.

I have 3 models of camera, all on the same firmware by model, and for all three models some (or one) works fine and others don't. They all worked fine under 1.26.

They all have identical configurations (aside from ip address) username and source settings, which were copied from the old config.

When attempting to access the feed from one of the non-working cameras, I get:

Any ideas?

I have a hunch this may have to do not with the camera but the amount of mapped memory you have due to this line below

Can you try this: Delete all cameras that you think are working and just keep the camera that is not working. Start with one.
Restart ZM only with that bad camera and let me know if you suddenly see it works perfectly when running alone.

Any ideas?

Also, please update to 1.28.1, we fixed some crashes in there.

This error can also be caused by non-upgraded db's. Check all the logs.

It was memory. It now has more, and all is good. I'll upgrade when I get a chance.

Many thanks.
