Unable to have more than 3 cameras...

Post by McFuzz »

Hi all,

Running 1.28.0 on Debian Wheezy and have never had a problem before when running three cameras.

I've recently moved and am adding 2 more for a total of 5; only one is wireless and the rest are wired. However, for whatever reason, when I add the 4th camera, I get the following:

Code: Select all

2014-12-14 00:38:43.130250	zmdc	4452	INF	'zmc -m 14' crashed, signal 6	zmdc.pl	
2014-12-14 00:38:43.045890	zmdc	7330	INF	'zmc -m 14' started at 14/12/14 00:38:43	zmdc.pl	
2014-12-14 00:38:43.043900	zmdc	4452	INF	'zmc -m 14' starting at 14/12/14 00:38:43, pid = 7330	zmdc.pl
Removing and re-adding the camera does not resolve the problem. However, if I remove a previously working camera and add one of the ones that is not working - guess what, it works fine... So as long as I have three cameras, things seem to be working.

Any ideas of how I can fix this? This is on a 4 core VM with 6 gigs of RAM so I don't think it would have issues...

Thanks!

I ran into the same issue. Better error reporting would have helped.
