Unable to access the Console

[knowitall]

Everting was running fine for a long while, suddenly I'm unable to access the console or log in into zoneminder, not form zmninja either... something went wrong, and I have no clue where. I'm pretty green on all this that is why seek help from the people that knows...

Tried to reinstall zm, upgrade mariadb, apache but nothing seemed to help

When I try localhost/zm I get the Apache 404 message

Running zm 1.37.12 on Ubuntu 20.4 on a Poweredge-R710

I just restarted the service and when I check Systemctl status zoneminder it seems to be running...:

So far I made some progress, thanks to homebrewdude viewtopic.php?p=125202#p125202 Thanks!

Now I can log in to ZM but after logging in I get a blank screen, not the console. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

its zoneminder correctly loaded for apache?
Does this file exist? /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/zoneminder.conf. If not does, /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf exists ?

If the last file exists, load it, and reload apache.
a2enconf zoneminder
systemctl reload apache2

Aah. Ok, just read your other post! apperently this is already done.
Can you post the content of the file and/or apaches logs.. My guess is some rewriting goes wrong, or poin to contents which does not exists.
