API changed in .23 or broken?

[geraldbrandt]

Hi,

I use the API to change a couple of cameras from Modect to Monitor and back at specific times during the day. It was working in .20, but doesn't work anymore.

Has there been a change, or is there something I can trace to help?

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/curl  -XPOST http://localhost/zm/api/monitors/3.json -d "Monitor[Function]=Modect&Monitor[Enabled]=1"
{"message":"Error"}

Still bad in .24

Any help I can give in tracking this down?

weird... I use this heavily. you can look in /var/log/zm/cake*.log

Here it is:

Ah.. I understand the problem. I'll push a fixed version tonight.

[geraldbrandt]

Awesome, thank you!

Still no go, but this may be due to a failed(ish) upgrade (in another post)

Latest packages should fix this.

I'm still having issues in .28:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/curl  -XPOST http://localhost/zm/api/monitors/4.json -d "Monitor[Function]=Modect&Monitor[Enabled]=1"
{"message":"Error"}

There was nothing written to any of the cake logs.

Okay, .29 changed it up again!

Code: Select all

root@zoneminder2:~# /usr/bin/curl  -XPOST http://localhost/zm/api/monitors/3.json -d "Monitor[Function]=Monitor&Monitor[Enabled]=1"
{"message":"Error Array\n(\n    [Function] => Array\n        (\n            [0] => Please choose one of the following values : None, Monitor, Modect, Record, Mocord, Nodect\n            [1] => Please choose one of the following values : None, Monitor, Modect, Record, Mocord, Nodect\n        )\n\n)\n"}

The cake logfile is empty (has been since the 20th), so maybe logging got turned off somehow?

Uh... .29 was supposed to fix it... where are you getting your packages from?

[iconnor]

Sigh.. I hate git submodules. New packages building.

No worries. I know this is alpha/beta code. I'm using it hoping my testing and feedback will help.

I feel like I'm quashing some of the really hard long-standing wierd bugs. I'm going to lay off any new features for a while and just put polish on it.
Thanks for your patience.
