That worked a treat.

Thanks.

So what was the problem? Database not upgraded to 1.22.3 specs?

I've upgraded in gentoo from 1.22.2 to 1.22.3 and get the error 12/15/06 12:11:07.974421 zmpkg[6718].INF [Command: start] 12/15/06 12:11:08.478448 zmpkg[6718].ERR [Unable to run "sudo -u apache /usr/bin/zmfix", output is ""] When i run manually I get no output... daktak@nintynine ~ $ sudo -u apache ...

Using Gentoo i couldnt start zmpkg.pl from command line.

In the execute function i replaced "su -c " with "sudo -u " and alls good!! :D

create a filter like this

time less than or equal to -2 day

then save, and click the delete option

of course now the web interface doesnt detect that its runing, so I cant watch a live feed, but oh well.

and above i forgot to mention i commented out the if statement above.

it was su 'ing twice. so i removed these lines from zmpkg.pl under sub_execute. #{ # $command = "su ".ZM_WEB_USER." -c $command"; #} For the gentoo'ers out there, here is my zm /etc/init.d script. so you can rc-update it ! :D #!/sbin/runscript depend() { need net } start() { ebegin "Starting ...

Yeah, okay I'll recompile zoneminder with the changes specified by Dave Dumulo.

I tired just changing the su stuff in zmpkg.pl and it didnt make a difference.

well --shell doesnt work,
running zmpkg.pl as root gives no errors
and i definatly can start the deamons from the web page.

Im running Gentoo, and i want to make ZM start on boot.

However zmpkg.pl start doesn't work for me :(
neither does stop or status..

Any ideas?
At the moment every time the pc boots i have to go to the web page and hit "Start" :(

I'd like the readme to contain a bit more detail as far as upgrading from a previous version goes.
Is the config saved? can i copy the config from a older ver and go perl zmconfig.pl -noi and does it asks the q's that werent in the previous version?

Yes, appreciate the work phillip!
