I just installed Zoneminder v1.30.4 on Ubuntu 16.04 following the "Easy Way" guide. I have added a camera, a Wansview Q2, and when I go to the monitor page it is just blank.
I looked in the logs and saw the errors below, so I read the FAQ and unfortunately I don't really understand the fix. I don't think the IE part applies as I am only using Chrome so it must be the 2nd part.
Errors:

getStreamCmdResponse stream error: Socket /var/run/zm/zms-594670s.sock does not exist. This file is created by zms, and since it does not exist, either zms did not run, or zms exited early. Please check your zms logs and ensure that CGI is enabled in apache and check that the PATH_ZMS is set correctly. Make sure that ZM is actually recording. If you are trying to view a live stream and the capture process (zmc) is not running then zms will exit.
