Okay, you are absolutely right there is an issue with your card not being initialized properly. Which kernel are you running? To find out you can run uname -r This shouldn't be an issue but let's not overlook anything. Edit: You might also try following this thread: http://www.zoneminder.com/forums ...

Well, for us to be able to figure out whats not working, we need a little more info. If I had to guess, my money is on your OS not correctly detecting your video capture board. 1. Which Video Capture board are you using? (ie, brand, model #) 1a. Post the ouput of dmesg | grep bttv 2. Post the output ...

No, you should be fine, although 512M is a little overkill. You could be okay lowering it but seeing as how it's working now, you might as well just leave her alone.

Okay, I am pretty certain you will want to edit the php.ini located here: /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini Since you have already done so, lets verify that the changes have indeed been accepted. Somewhere in your www root create a file called info.php Insert this code: <?php phpinfo(); ?> Now browse to ...

I have to agree with cordel, this is a php configuration issue. You need to edit your php.ini file and add/modify the following setting: memory_limit = 32M Most likely it is currently set to 16M or possibly even 8M depending on your OS and PHP version installed. As to where your php.ini file is ...

I am not so sure it's something other than ZM. ZM and Linux in general have some shortcomings dealing with USB Cameras. I personally have tried three different webcams with only limited success. I believe this is going to be a linux webcam driver issue combined with a ZM issue. There has been ...

The error you are seeing is a PHP error. Most likely because you have PHP 5.3 installed. This is not why your ZM installation is failing. I think we will need a little more info to solve your issue. 1. Which Webcam are you using? 2. Post the output of lsusb and lspci 3. What happens when you run the ...

I am not using Fedora but I saw this same error occurring on CentOS 5.4 in my apache error log I saw this: [Sun Jan 03 22:32:48 2010] [error] [client xx.xx.xx.xx] Options FollowSymLinks or SymLinksIfOwnerMatch is off which implies that RewriteRule directive is forbidden: /var/www/cgi-bin/nph-zms ...

If you want a standalone intrusion detection system, you're gonna need some hardware.. Grab a kit from HERE or from http://www.youralarmstore.com/ . Then you can do all the opensource installing you want. With the DSC Power 832 systems, you can either program it via the keypad (which is a PITA) or ...

nealc,

We probally need a little more info...

ie.. Which IP Cameras are you using, Which Capture card, sysctl.conf settings, and the like...

Lee, Yeah, now that I got it up and going, my next step will be to reinstall without the gui and and compile the kernel to suit. I also changed the cams from RGB to B/W since they are used outdoors here in good ol SA with lots o sunshine, which washes out the color anyways. Thanks for the tips ...

Just a quick shout out to thank everyone here and to list my hardware.. After beating my head against the wall for several days trying to configure an ancient 16port generic card with no success, I ordered a pv-155 from Bluecherry. Stuck it in, booted up, all 4 cams working like a champ. I have the ...

Well, 102,102,102,102 provides only camera1 on video0(0). All the other channels appear blue. I cant seem to get any other cameras to come up and I have three connected currently.

Ok with type=133,132,133,133 I went through all devices video0-3 channels 0-15 on each, they all show up blue. With card type=77,77,77,77 I was able to see the same camera on video0(0), video1(0), video2(0), and video3(0). Any other ideas?
