1.28.104 API not working

[lvthunder]

I want to run the beta of zmninja so I need the API to work. I have two zm servers. One is running Ubuntu 14 and the other 15. When I go to http://localhost/zm/api/host/getVersion.json I get a file not found. When I go to http://localhost/zm/api I get this error on both of them.

Code: Select all

Check a week or so back in this forum. I have provided a procedure to get the API to work.

You didn't state how you came to get the development snapshot zoneminder 1.28.104 installed on your system.
We are up to 1.28.106 now and we've made changes since the version you are running, which should make the API work out of the box (if you are running a packaged version of zoneminder).

You should upgrade to 1.28.106 if it is available.


On a side note, we've created a new forum specifically for the mobile app:

But I don't know if Kyle has got the permissions set up right. I need someone with a normal user account to try and post in there.

It doesn't work knnniggett. I can't view that forum, let alone post. Screenshot attached:

The PPA-Master for Ubuntu 14.04 is still at 1.28.104

Yes that is how I got it.

On another note thanks bbunge I got the API working on both of them.
