Do you think that upgrading to ZM 1.30 from 1.29 might fix the problem?

Thanks for the info on common errors. Camera resolution in ZoneMinder does match camera output using VLC (Tools, Media Information, Codec) to check camera Display Resolution. Currently, using ZoneMinder Options->Paths, PATH_ZMS is set to /zm/cgi-bin/nph-zms. I see nothing in https://wiki.zoneminder....

I've installed ZM 1.29 (under Ubuntu 16.04 Desktop) as per the wiki at https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ubuntu_Server_16.04_64- bit_with_Zoneminder_1.29.0_the_easy_way., as someone on this forum told me that's the best instructions for the install. ZM comes up with http://localhost:81/zm/index.php (in Ch...

I've tried running Onvifer app from an Android tablet. Onvifer finds the camera and works out its RTSP parameters, namely ip address, ports & stream path. But it will not connect using RTSP. I emailed Apeman and conclusion is that there is a bug in the firmware. I was sent instructions with the ...

I've just bought an Apeman ID71 IP Camera. I'm trying to set it up in ZoneMinder. I'm baffled by what to fill in on the Remote Protocol Method, Host Name, Host Port & Host Path of the Source tab. I've looked at the documentation including the mpeg-4 camera example but it was of no help. The docu...

If you want to check that Apache is now listening to port 81, try http://127.0.0.1:81 in your browser and you should get the Apache default page.

http://localhost:81/zm/ gives the ZoneMInder console. Thanks for that.

Attached shows status of Apache2 & ZoneMinder.

I've done all the steps in the above (Server) wiki. Still same problem. I previously did instructions in https://forums.zoneminder.com/viewtopic.php?t=21721 as I wanted to ZM to use port 81 rather than 80: I have set Port Forwarding on my router for port 81 to route to this computer. I'm wondering i...

I don't think that you are reading and/or understanding my posts. I did become root throughout. I have followed all the steps in the appropriate webpage for Ubuntu Desktop 16.04 i.e. https://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installationguide/ubuntu.html#easy-way-ubuntu-16-04 i have not used the S...

@bbunge I did install LAMP server by using tasksel (i.e. invoking tasksel after sudo -i). "systemctl start zoneminder" jsut returns prompt. zoneminder looks like it started Ok: root@John:~# systemctl status zoneminder ● zoneminder.service - ZoneMinder CCTV recording and surveillance system...

Another point is that 127.0.0.1 and 127.0.1.1 (in Chrome) both give site not reached even though I can ping them. The "New Install" post stated that "Opening a page with 127.0.0.1 returns the Apache 2 Ubuntu default page confirming (as per the text in the page) that the server is work...

@bbunge Thanks for the info about the extra step. I've tried again and still getting same problem. As I previously said, I got one funny: root@john:~# a2enmod cgi AH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1. Set the 'ServerName' directive ...

I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 desktop which has ZoneMinder 1.29 in its repos. I followed the wiki install instructions including tasksel of LAMP Server. I did get one funny: root@john:~# a2enmod cgi AH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1. Se...
