Can't add monitor: Path must be set a valid value

Post by tr3b0r »

Trying to add a monitor to a new install of zoneminder

I can't switch from the General page.

and

when i try to save that it a popup message:

Code: Select all


my_zoneminder_server says

Path must be set a valid value
Height must be set a valid value
Width must be set a valid value
                                                      
                                                              OK
I did two zoneminder installs yesterday and it worked fine.

Help please

Thanks

Please give the exact steps to this problem.
How many monitors do you have?
Have you done any updates? What OS?

Hi, new user of ZM setting it up on Ubuntu for the first time. I have this same issue and cannot add any of my cameras. I don't see any javascript errors either.
