Case of the missing URL.

Post by mbill »

I am having trouble getting an image in zm4ms. I am using RDMelin's release of ZMLiveCD 1.23.3. As far as i know i have not changed any of zoneminders passwords. I have tried to follow the trouble shooting in previos threads for zm4ms and think it is a problem of the URL settings. My first clue was i do not have a URL.

In my browser for zoneminder console i have a URL of.
http://localhost/zm/index.php

When i check a still image for a URL i get.
http://localhost/cgi-bin/nph-zms?mode=s ... 5202902188

640px
480px
35.6KB
Camera1

If i take that address above and put it in a browser on the zoneminder computer i do see that still shot.

In the settings for zm4ms i left all defaults and tried changing the URL for camera1 to localhost and i checked the box on the end of that line. With no sucess.
