ZoneMinder Forums

Ooops, spoke too soon. Almost fixed...

The image shows, but when moving the zone markers, the red color doesn't move. Now, for the first time there's something in the logs. It says "can't open Zone3.jpg permission denied". I haven't had a log on this problem till now. The markers move into position and stay but I don't know if the zone is changed or not. As far as I can tell, the whole picture is within the alarm area.

So... good thing, I see the picture

bad thing, there is a permission denied error and the zone markers don't change the area.

'Have any ideas why the zone is not moving?

Extra bit of information....

When I installed zonminder, I kept all the original paths. I know there have been some issues when there has been a change in paths to a different partition. I never thought that this could be a problem with an original installation where the paths have not changed.

Point: I have always had /var on it's own separate partition/drive, even before I installed zoneminder on this machine.

Could this be an issue here not having permission to the image Zone?.jpg files? Could it be a problem for anything else in /var?

Thanks.... still fishing...

Hello,

Have you solved this problem?

For me I found the problem.
After change the owner with

chown -R www-data:www-data /var/cache/zoneminder/events
chown -R www-data:www-data/var/cache/zoneminder/images

it works.

Hope I can help someone with this information.
