No live picture, no other pictures in web browser.

Post by mcll »

Hi!

I had an older Zoneminder version running on my system without any problem (ZM v1.30.4.) but i made an upgrade to v1.32.3 as described. The new version wont start. Than i completely removed old ZM, and installed a fresh version. Now it's working, ZM recognises my cameras, settings are same as before. But i have no picture! I see a "broken" small icon everywhere where i could see my camera (live, recorded events, etc).

I checked everything i found about this on the internet, everything seems to be ok.

Linux is Ubuntu server 14.04.3

Please help, my system is so unusable now. :(
Greetings,
Laszlo

I couldn't get it to work on UB14 either.
Rebuild with UB18

Use these instructions: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ubuntu_Serv ... _Bionic.21

Hi,

Thanks i tried it. Not helped. Now i cannot get back to the old working 1.30 version.. ZM seems to be working, but cannot access the web interface, don't know why. How todo a clean install from scratch again? I removed zm completely, purged, etc, but now when i make a fresh install i cannot open anymore the webinterface of zm. Totally messed up... Reinstalling linux is not an option, because the server has to be online and working (has a lot of other jobs all the day).
Greetings,

I added repo for 1.30.4 now, installed from scratch (before i dropped old ZM database in mysql). Now when i start web interface i get the following error:

Code: Select all

SQL-ERR 'SQLSTATE[42S02]: Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'zm.Servers' doesn't exist', statement was 'SELECT * FROM Servers ORDER BY Name'
I tried to update database, no luck, error still there:

Code: Select all

# zmupdate.pl -f
Freshening configuration in database
Loading config from DB
Saving config to DB
How can i get working ZM on my system again?

Ok i got it worked...
Totally removed old version, deleted mysql database, repos, etc

Code: Select all

apt-get purge zoneminder
apt-get clean
apt-get update
apt-get autoremove zoneminder
etc

removed ALL folders for zoneminder

Added manually the repo:

Code: Select all

### cat iconnor-zoneminder-1_30-trusty.list
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/iconnor/zoneminder-1.30/ubuntu trusty main
# deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/iconnor/zoneminder-1.30/ubuntu trusty main

Code: Select all

### cat iconnor-zoneminder-master-trusty.list
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/iconnor/zoneminder-master/ubuntu trusty main
# deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/iconnor/zoneminder-master/ubuntu trusty main
After that installed zoneminder again (apt-get install zoneminder).

Also need to purge browser cache, otherwise you cannot accept the new privacy statement (without clearing cache, if you click to accept, the page will only reload).

So i have now a working Zoneminder on my Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS 64bit system.
Zoneminder v1.33.2 is now working!
