Way to send email or other notification when fatal error?

Post by dhumes »

After some time ZoneMinder stops working. Sometimes the ZoneMinder web application can't be reached (even though I can SSH into the box). Or sometimes, ZoneMinder will be unable to show video from the cameras (even though I can view the video using the same stream from VLC). In the latter case, the source column will have red text to show the camera cannot be viewed (so ZoneMinder is aware). Is there a way to send an email or something so I know when this happens? Or something built into Linux to restart ZoneMinder?

Usually a reboot will fix things, but sometimes I don't know about it for a few days.

Thanks,
Dave
