Lost mobile access to functional UI in Chrome Android

Post by Sinusvag »

Hi all!

So I managed to install ZM on a Ubuntu 24.04 install, and eventually got all cameras for a future setup working (one by one). One no-name chinese PTZ, two Axis 720p small cams, a newish Axis 3707 quad cam and an Axis p5534 PTZ. Everything was hunkydory and the interface worked on the phone too (which is my goal, eventually these cameras will be installed in a summer cottage in the woods, and I want to check in on nature and the cabin from time to time while at work).

But suddenly, the mobile access just became...inhibited. No streaming video, no working PTZ controls. I must admit that I tried out changing the theme and also the css, but I figured those changes would be reversible.

The strange thing is that the browser in my laptop (Kubuntu) has kept on running wo problems, ie I can see the streams and control the PTZ. So there is no error there.

- Is there some known method by which I can eliminate what is preventing the mobile access from happening? (Everything is happening on local LAN using localhost as server, no connection to the internet).

You can always do apt install --reinstall zoneminder to revert whatever changes you've made.

When you say mobile... do you zmNinja or the just using a browser on your phone?

Hi, yes it was the browser on the phone that stopped working - not Zmninja. Tried installing Firefox and the same situation.

I have just purged the system of ZM and will try a reinstall of it all!
