No video after upgrade-solved

[kradoow]

So my previous version of zoneminder kept popping up saying there was an update. So after getting annoyed of seeing the pop up I, like a fool, I decided to upgrade. I am running Bionic, I saw an error message when trying to do the update that there was no release candidate for Bionic. So I looked for a solution and saw on a ppa page to use the http://ppa.launchpad.net/iconnor/zoneminder-master ppa so I did.
It seems to be running, I can see the stills so I know it is capturing but I am not able to see any video, in firefox or chrome.
The console page also shows that it capturing with various 13fps 1.02MB/s on the 3 cameras, 2 Axis M1065-lw and a M1034-w.
When I click on a camera the page comes up with the events but refreshes constantly which makes it difficult to even click on an event.
There is no image though, every so often I can the camera name appear but (the timestamp).

I have install the cambozola .jr, php7.2-cgi.

Should I downgrade? is it possible?

[rockedge]

hello! What operating system are you using and which version of ZM are you upgrading from?
there are some changes in the way the configuration is set up and how the web console CSS works so there is a difference between 1.30.4 and 1.33.1

[kradoow]

Running xubuntu 18.04 LTS
1.30

[kradoow]

So I did a purge remove and did a new install, still 1.33.1 released on 23-Jan and it seems to be working again.

[SteveGilvarry]

FYI 1.32.x is still the stable release
https://launchpad.net/~iconnor/+archive ... inder-1.32
1.33 is development version which will result in next release at 1.34, so you will be on the bleeding edge, it works but may see more bugs as we are actively working on this and you have taken a point in time snapshot.

[kradoow]

Running great after a week now. Actually the log show green and no errors, first ever since I have been running it, started in June.

[Harold Marshall]

After a working 1.32 installation upgrade to 1.34, facing this issue.

[Harold Marshall]

Time zone was not set after the upgrade. Setting it manually from the GUI resolved the issue.

Yup worked for me also the funny part in ZMNija it worked without the Timezone set to local Time Zone
