Thank you - that seems to have actually worked. I'm surprised, as the box does say that any line starting with a # is a comment so i assumed comments were allowed. Is this a known bug? Or did you just have a magic "hunch"? Happy to have it fixed!

Hi All, I have just setup a new VM (Manjaro) for Zoneminder (v1.36.33), and have setup 3 MODECT monitors. The VM has 8CPU core and 8GB RAM allocated. The Monitors are: 1 x local USB webcam (passed through form the host machine to the VM). 2 x remote feeds using ffmpeg source type. All monitors are c...

Hello, I've been using the dlandon/zoneminder docker for a while now. This is running on arch linux, on a zfs pool. Twice now it's got into a situation where if I try to go the web interface then my browser just shows ... Unable to connect to ZM db.SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused The first...

Great thanks! Thought I had looked everywhere but obviously not ...

Hi, I have recently installed Zoneminder 1.32.3, in Arch Linux. All seems to be running well except that I'm not seeing any thumbnail images for the items in the Modect event list. 1.30 .. used to give me thumbnails ... has this just been changed, or do I need to change some options to display thumb...

Thanks for the response guys. Forget about it though. It seems that the Arch AUR package is broken. I did manage to get zoneminder installed in the end, but it was not straight forward. What I realised is that if I try to build & install the zoneminder package using the makepkg -sci command then...

Hi folks, I've been using Zoneminder successfully for a while now, with ZM running in an Arch Linux virtual machine. I installed the AUR package on this VM a while back without any issues. Now I would like to try and re-install ZM in an LXC container instead (lighter, more efficient virtualization)....

Yes i think the issue is with accessing the camera in the VM. I tried just running Cheese (gnome application for webcams) and this didn't work either. Nor did ffplay. I've managed to get a "Remote" monitor to work now, with the webcam attached to the main host machine again and streaming i...

Yes the http user (user running apache) is in the video group.

Hi folks, I use Arch Linux for all my needs at home and would really like to setup a home security camera system using ZoneMinder running on an Arch Linux VM. I have created my VM and passed a USB webcam to it from the host system, which is available in the VM as /dev/video0. I have followed the Arc...
