Starting over with fresh install

[keyboardgnome]

Thanks folks, in advance. I was using ZM 1.24 and decided to update it. With my setup, it was working great, but there were some new things that I wanted to do with it which caused the direction to update.

I have two camera sources: AXIS M2014-E and an AXIS M7014

Both were previously using ffmpeg to send their related rtsp streams to zoneminder. No problems, 30fps on all cameras. Life was peachy.

I saved the settings I used for the camera's, however even with version 1.25, I cannot connect back to the cameras. I've recompiled ffmpeg from scratch, and there's still an issue.

I stupidly forgot to save my previous settings for /etc/sysctl.conf, but I'm using

kernel.shmall = 33554432
kernel.shmmax = 536870912

Regardless, at this point, I'm just trying to get 1.28 installed on a fresh Debian Wheezy system.

Following the build instructions at https://github.com/ZoneMinder/ZoneMinder on how to build a 1.28 .deb

causes a failure with this patch https://github.com/ZoneMinder/ZoneMinde ... -perl.diff

The error is:

Looks like the patch applied already, so I nulled the patch and tried again. The compile moved forward. Running 1.28

but now it looks like all the skin stuff for zoneminder is all jacked up (text is there, none of the html formatting is there)

and the cameras now work again like they did before! it's just not pretty to look at and configure

[keyboardgnome]

Yup, rebooted... now this

Turns out that if i define those constants in index.php, everything works!
