This turned out to be an nginx problem. The update invalidated my certificates (probably created new ones with different names, and it was reading one old and one new - my guess). Nginx wouldn't start. I attempted to create a new SSL certificate myself, but was struggling. In the end, I created a ne...

Following this guide, https://phoenixnap.com/kb/how-to-backup-restore-a-mysql-database, I made a backup, then I left the old install alone, and created a new jail install to test with. I ran a restore. While I did get an error, my setup came back in the new install. mysql -u dbadmin -p zm < zm-dbbac...

I'm running ZM in a TrueNAS jail. Last night I updated zoneminder from 1.3.4 to 1.3.6 using zmupdate.pl. At the end of the install, I got an error about strerror_l@FBSD_1.6. Some research led me to upgrade from base 12.3 to 13.1. After the upgrade, the jail starts, and zoneminder appears to be runni...

SOLVED!!! I searched the error I was receiving on CLI, and it directed me to another forum post explaining how to install the missing perl package: log into perl shell perl -MCPAN -eshell install missing package install MIME::Entity After update, I manually ran the filter, and it worked! zmfilter.pl...

I found directions on running zmfilter from CLI, and after much bad syntax, got this output: sudo zmfilter.pl [-f PurgeWhenFull] Can't locate MIME/Entity.pm in @INC (you may need to install the MIME::Entity module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.32 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_pe...

Progress. I just checked my log for errors, and there are dozens of the following: 2020-12-11 14:45:03 zmdc 94795 ERR 'zmfilter.pl --filter_id=3 --daemon' exited abnormally, exit status 2 zmdc.pl There's a thread discussing a bad perl script (libnumber-bytes-human-perl) here: https://forums.zonemind...

I believe I've found a solution to this. Click each event category and watch an event. When you go back to Console, that zone will now register accurate drive space. There's gotta be a config database on the backend that isn't being updated. Did that fix it?

I'm running Zoneminder as a jail in a FreeNAS 11.3 install. I originally installed and configured using 1.34.9 - have been happy for six months. Last week I did an update through the FN GUI. After update, I was instructed to run zmupdate.pl, which I did, and I've restarted the server. However, my ha...

My ZM started having this issue after I upgraded from 1.34.9 to 1.34.21. My console events were all showing 0b, and my filters stopped working. My install is through FreeNAS, so I went back to the NAS UI and did a manual upgrade on the Zoneminder jail, then ran zmupdate.pl. After restart, my event s...
