Re: unstable zoneminder - ceases to capture video after some time

It's too early to say as it's less than 24h so far. There were 2x "memory map file size" errors but Zoneminder recovered from that by itself and I do not know what was the gap (if any). But it requires more time to evaluate (I was running it on Debian for several weeks). I'll give it few d...

Re: unstable zoneminder - ceases to capture video after some time

Well, in theory possible but that would be outside my standard setup and I would highly dislike it. I have small server cluster at home (so it's easy to add VMs / containers) built on old but server-grade HW, with RAID, all that stuff. It's replicated (few clicks to start VM/container on another nod...

Re: unstable zoneminder - ceases to capture video after some time

So far running, but there is one occurrence of error "Got empty memory map file size 0, is the zmc process for this monitor running?".
Zoneminder recovered from that by itself so it's not a showstopper, but anyway it's strange that such "random" errors happen.

Re: unstable zoneminder - ceases to capture video after some time

Thnks.
Just installed Ubuntu 16.04 container. Hopefully it will be stable.
I'll check XenialDog if not.

Re: unstable zoneminder - ceases to capture video after some time

Thank you. Would I get the same problems if I switch to Ubuntu (as it's Debian based) or it's stable on Ubuntu? If Ubuntu is not ok, what other Linux distribution would be best? I'd still want to run it in LXC container (Proxmox virtualization => Debian-based host), if it can run stable in container.

unstable zoneminder - ceases to capture video after some time

Hi, I'm running Zoneminder 1.30.4 in (privileged) LXC container with Debian 9 on a server-grade hardware (lots of memory, enough disk space, ...). Unfortunately it's not stable. It runs fine for some time (hours, up to few days) but then suddenly it won't connect to camera anymore. Cameras are still...

Re: zmninja eventserver : how to exclude a monitor

There's only one line:
*:3,5,6,7,8,9,10,11:0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0:android:enabled

Anyway, no big deal if other things will work fine.
Cameras change very seldom, it is not a big task to update the list in script if needed.
Maybe once you will fix it ;)

Re: zmninja eventserver : how to exclude a monitor

For me, even after following the instructions above, when the app is started, all monitors are re-included.
I had to limit the list of monitors by hardcoding it in .pl script, which is not the best solution.
