Has anybody got ZM 1.27.1 working on Ubuntu 14.04

Has anybody got ZM 1.27.1 working on Ubuntu 14.04?

I've set it up with the iconnor-master repository but I'm unable to get it working. everything records OK but I'm unable to view events back or see the live cam.

When following the instuctions for 14.04 with 1.26.5 that works spot on however I'd like to install the latest version.

I use iconnor-master PPA, it works for me. But I have some things... I have update from default 1.26 to 1.27.1 THANK for iconnor

I used iconnor-master repository everything installed OK, but when I went to view the camera or the events nothing showed. So I've had to revert back to 1.26.5 as per the instructions in the Wiki.

Did you true: a2enmod cgi command?

I had 1.26.5 running on 12.10 installed by apt-get.

Today I ran do-release-upgrade twice to get to 14.10LTS. ZM no longer was working. I then ran apt-get install zoneminder and the machine acted like it never had zoneminder and installed it again. It worked. Then I added iconner and got 1.27.1. Runs great - no problems.

Did you true: a2enmod cgi command?

This catches many people out since it was not required in previous Ubuntu releases.

Yes I did, this is listed in the wiki instructions. It would be great if some instructions could be put together for the latest Ubuntu and lastest Zoneminder configuration.

So did a2enmod fix the problem?

No streaming or events generally means that zms is not being run (fixed by a2enmod) or is crashing.

zms will crash if the monitor is not currently running (specifically the zmc process for whatever monitor you want to view).
zms will crash if your db has not been correctly updated.

I have Ubuntu 14.04 running with ZM 1.27.1 or 1.27.0+1 installed from the Iconnor master repository.
Basic instructions use http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.ph ... e_easy_way
except add the PPA master repository before installing Zoneminder:
apt-get install python-software-properties
add-apt-repository ppa:iconnor/zoneminder-master
apt-get update

Seems to work well except for the Libvlc from an H.264 camera where I get error:
Unable to create libvlc instance due to: (null)

Same camera works fine with Ffmpeg

I'll take some time this week to write up this for another of my "Easy" installs.

Thanks BB.

That's what I did but couldn't get LibVLC working (all my cameras are LibVLC) I didn't try FFMPeg so reverted back to 1.26. All working now but would love to upgrade to the latest version.

Thanks for the CGI tip. Here's what I did to get things working on my (ec2) install.

- launched ubuntu 14.04 image
- apt-add-repository ppa:iconnor/zoneminder-master
- add-apt-repository ppa:jon-severinsson/ffmpeg
- apt-get update
- apt-get install zoneminder
- apt-get install ffmpeg
- cp /etc/zm/apache.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/zm.conf
- a2enmod cgi
- configured zoneminder feeds and enable ffmpeg in the images section of the options

Also installed the cambozola thing but suspect that was not needed.

cambozola is neede for Internet Explorer. Without it you can't see a stream from ZM in IE.
