Negative Event Count

Post by geraldbrandt »

I just upgraded from 1.32.2 and got 1.33.0. Didn't expect it, but my fault for not changing my repo. No big deal, I don't mind testing.

One of my cameras has a negative event count of -7 and a negative size value. When I record an event, the count goes to -6, etc.

What can I do on my end to help you figure it out (if you need help)?

I see this same occurrence only when I compile ZM 1.33.0 from source. When I use the iconner PPA the negative event counts and zero zones being displayed do not happen.

Isaac and I have seen this too, but not on every system we are running.
It seems to right itself over time, which actually makes it harder to troubleshoot.

My system is still showing -8 when there are no events. Is there anything I can do to help debug this?

Try this:
viewtopic.php?f=38&t=27886#p108869

Verify all three timezones are reporting the same offset.

Then also try re-running zmupdate in the manner shown here:
viewtopic.php?f=38&t=27622&p=108402&hil ... .4#p108402

At the moment, we still have not determined the cause.
