Ugly web interface after upgrade

Post by albazeus »

Good morning,

I recently upgraded my Debian to bookworm and at the same time php from version 7.4 to version 8.2.
I then upgraded zoneminder from version 1.34 to version 1.36.
The result is that now the cameras work but the web interface is ugly, I don't really know how to explain it. I attach a screen.

I have tried changing the theme, changing the browser and using incognito mode. Always the same result.

What could it be?
Thank you

Looks like stuff missing. Check your web logs for clues.

When you upgraded to Bookworm your existing Zoneminder was overwritten by the 1.36.x version in the Debian repository. Your best bet is to start with a fresh install of Debian 12 and install Zoneminder per the WIKI: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Debian_12_B ... er_1.36.33

Or use the install procedure here (https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Debian_11_B ... der_1.36.x) as a starting point and install Zoneminder 1.37.x. Change the: deb https://zmrepo.zoneminder.com/debian/release-1.36 in the script to: deb https://zmrepo.zoneminder.com/debian/master

You are right. For some reason the cache path was wrong. Maybe it has changed in the last 2 versions? Just a guess.
Anyway, I solved it by changing the cache path in the apache configuration and the link of /usr/share/zoneminder/www/cache.

Thanks everyone!
