Hello,

today Zoneminder crashed. I have version 1.30.4 installed on Ubuntu from iconnors ppa.
Has anyone an idea why ZM crashes?

Thanks in advance

It happened again :( How is it possible to stop zoneminder crashing? I think i will try a new clean installation with the newest version. It could be the problem with a wifi camera that it loses sometimes the connection, but zoneminder should close the old process like you described it. 2017-07-29 1...

I currently have Version 1.30.4.
Just one Camera is connected via wifi.
I will Test it with a Network cable.
But independently a deadlock/livelock should not happen in a software.

Zoneminder crashed again :( How can i avoid crashing zoneminder if i am unpacking some things and have temporarily a high load?

Hello, my zoneminder crashed one more time. Here are the logs: I also saw in my monitoring that the load was higher that normal and after 9 hours it was normalizing. My shm graph didn't worked correctly so i can't say if it was full. I fixed the monitoring and now i hope that i can reproduce the pro...

I had this problem once.
My keyboard layout changed (language) and now i had the qwerty layout.
So the password was incorrect and i landed on the same page again.
Another time my disk space was full and i it was the same again.

Now it is at:
tmpfs 7.8G 528M 7.3G 7% /dev/shm

I also configured an icinga2 check to monitor it if it happens again.

Thanks for your help.

Hello, this night zoneminder crashed. Does anybody know why this happened? At 13:41 i started zm and now its working again. My last event was at 05/06 22:59:40 so im a bit confused why it is capturing at 01:44:01. Thanks for help ZM 1.30.2 Ubuntu iconnors ppa 2017-05-07 13:41:07.394005 zms 13444 ERR...

Try this one: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ubuntu_Serv ... e_easy_way

Additionally i have a htpasswd with the user login and fail2ban to monitor and block the ip's which could bruteforce my password.
I don't know if zoneminder itself blocks bruteforcing.

Hello,

is there any login bruteforce protection implemented in zoneminder?
If i forward the ports everyone is able to get to the login mask.

A other solution could be a apache2 htaccess/htpasswd with fail2ban but my question is if zoneminder directly supports something like this.

Thank you very much!

I have deleted the old init script /etc/init.d/zoneminder.
Now i just use systemctl (/lib/systemd/system/zoneminder.service)

Hello, today i found a event which i can't watch. After a few seconds there is always a black screen with the white text "Time to next event = 5 seconds" couting down to 1 but nothing happens after this. I get this message in a row. And i figured out that the time offset was negative. Is i...

Solution: (maybe someone needs this) I figured out that somehow zoneminder was running two times. When i stopped it with /etc/init.d/, with systemctl and also killed all processes from zoneminder i could start it again and now the events are getting saved correctly. I have removed the autostart with...
