Documentation Fix

Post by MediaManRIT »

All,

I found a missing piece or broken flow in the documentation at http://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/sta ... untu-16-04 .

I was battling for hours trying to figure out why my camera image wouldn't show up in the browser, even after I added and enabled cambozola.jar. In my troubleshooting, I found that the cgi-bin directory is not configured to be compatible with the steps in the instructions.

It appears that the running configuration that results from following the instructions linked above has PATH_ZMS in /cgi-bin/nph-zms, but apache gets configured for /zm/cgi-bin/nph-zms . Once I changed PATH_ZMS, to /zm/cgi-bin/nph-zms my camera images were viewable.

Also, the link on that documentation page for "Edit On GitHub" is broken and results in a 404 error.

Thanks!
