Unable to connect to Logs table

Post by SkippyDo »

This combo, Debian sid & ZM 1.32.3, is tending to be extremely frustrating/unstable. Can only run a couple of days before something causes zm to no longer be accessible.

I loose the ability to connect via internet (no web access or other), so no ability to diagnose (system is headless). I can only force a reboot via power off/on and then look for crumbs (never finding anything).

The most recent event resulted in mysql failing due to innoDB files, so I moved them out of the way and was then able to start OK. But, zoneminder will not start.

sudo systemctl status zoneminder.service produces:
Jan 26 18:31:47 mandeportal systemd[1]: Starting ZoneMinder CCTV recording and surveillance system...

Jan 26 18:31:47 mandeportal systemd[1]: Failed to start ZoneMinder CCTV recording and surveillance system.

MariaDB [zm]> check table Logs; produces:
ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query
Can anyone point me toward some resolution?

Dropping and recreating the Logs table and, for now, things seem to be working as expected.

Interesting is that removing the innoDB log file allowed zm to start, but I was only getting one of my four cameras to come up (stream) and nothing was showing in the zm logs.
