This is my first post, and I'm very much a beginner with Linux, so please be gentle on me
I'm sure someone will probably identify what this issue is, though I've been trying for days to sort it now and I hope someone will be willing to help out.
Ok, here's the detail:
- RedHat Linux 9
- Apache 2 (works at local host and displays intro page at a networked machine when firewall is disabled)
- PHP 4.3.7 installed (though not sure how to confirm this is working correctly)
- MCPAN seems to be working I think. I was having problems saying it wasn't found (when trying to run 'perl zmconfig.pl', though after an up2date and an upgrade of Apache it appears not to be a problem now.
- MySQL 4.0.20 - seems to be working
- zm service starts {OK]
- Video Card - Some kind of BT878 4 Port Card (seems to be working albeit not in colour (not sure why yet) under xawtv - see config below).
[root@rh9 /usr/bin]$ zmu --device 0 -q -v

And here's the symptoms for example when I load zm.php into Mozilla Browser, I get a blank page, and when I load any other page I get an apparently scrambled mess such as this when loading file:///var/www/zm_config.php
array( 'w'=>720, 'h'=>540 ), 'state' => array( 'w'=>300, 'h'=>120 ), 'version' => array( 'w'=>320, 'h'=>140 ), 'cycle' => array( 'w'=>16, 'h'=>32 ), 'montage' => array( 'w'=>20, 'h'=>20 ), 'monitor' => array( 'w'=>360, 'h'=>300 ), 'watch' => array( 'w'=>72, 'h'=>342 ), 'device' => array( 'w'=>196, 'h'=>164 ), 'function' => array( 'w'=>248, 'h'=>92 ), 'events' => array( 'w'=>720, 'h'=>480 ), 'event' => array( 'w'=>72, 'h'=>168 ), 'filter' => array( 'w'=>560, 'h'=>250 ), 'filtersave' => array( 'w'=>560, 'h'=>220 ), 'zones' => array( 'w'=>72, 'h'=>232 ), 'zone' => array( 'w'=>360, 'h'=>500 ), 'video' => array( 'w'=>100, 'h'=>80 ), 'image' => array( 'w'=>48, 'h'=>80 ), 'frames' => array( 'w'=>500, 'h'=>300 ), 'stats' => array( 'w'=>680, 'h'=>200 ), 'options' => array( 'w'=>760, 'h'=>480 ), 'optionhelp' => array( 'w'=>320, 'h'=>240 ), 'restarting' => array( 'w'=>250, 'h'=>150 ), 'user' => array( 'w'=>230, 'h'=>340 ), 'settings' => array( 'w'=>200, 'h'=>225 ), 'logout' => array( 'w'=>200, 'h'=>100 ), 'bandwidth' => array( 'w'=>200, 'h'=>90 ), ); ?>
I hope I've covered off enough detail, but if I've missed anything obvious that I need to tell you about please say. I'll try to provide it but you might need to tell me how. I did find a forum message saying that someone had a similar problem (in that they got a blank page when loading zm.php, but didn't mention anything about lots of text as above (see http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3359) - the fix for them seemed to be "configuring httpd.conf to tell it where the zm files were" - but I have had no luck in searching the documentation as to what to enter into httpd.conf)
Thanks in advance...
