open up php.ini and comment out the sections on errors this would affect all php programs running on the server (unless you copy the php.ini into your zm directory and manipulated that one) What one should do is grep error_reporting *.php change all occurrences to error_reporting(E_ALL ^ (E_NOTICE ...

This is how I got it to work with openSuSE 11: (/etc/init.d/zm) copied from different sources #!/bin/sh # description: ZoneMinder is the top Linux video camera security and surveillance solution.

At what time do you run the alarm_loop.pl file? at the moment (still testing), I run it manually (from a console): ./alarm_loop.pl & ("&" means: in the background) Later, I am going to start it from a console script together with ZM. This script can be placed in the /etc/init.d folder (may differ ...

I think, the processing time wouldn't be that much of an issue here, because it doesn't have to be done in realtime, but only (as a filter) after an event had occurred. As for setting maximum alarmed area: this has to be changed in each zone, right? As for plugins: maybe I can build my own plugin ...

that's exactly what intruders get to hear in my garden

BTW: I haven't yet found any good (scary) dog bark sound files on the net.
I guess I have to go to a scrapyard and find a mastiff

We do it just as you have by updating the flag through a sql statement.

but wouldn't it be nice to have a "Force" checkbox on the Event Filter page?

my wireless camera sometimes sends distorted pictures, mostly at night and while it's raining. Examples: http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/2575/stoerung2on5.jpg http://img125.imageshack.us/img125/2091/stoerung1ah4.jpg I have two ideas how to avoid those false alarms: :idea: 1: a plugin interface so ...

It seems like ZM only executes the filter if the corresponding flag has not been set yet, like Events.Emailed. If this flag is =1, then ZM won't send this event. Is there a built-in procedure to reset these flags? At the moment, I have to edit the mysql table and set the flag=0 manually. Quite ...

it works :D Here is my script alarm_loop.pl #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use ZoneMinder; $| = 1; zmDbgInit( "myscript", level=>0, to_log=>0, to_syslog=>0, to_term=>1 ); my $dbh = DBI->connect( "DBI:mysql:database=".ZM_DB_NAME.";host=".ZM_DB_HOST, ZM_DB_USER, ZM_DB_PASS ); my $sql = "select M ...

Hi, I'd like ZM to run a program whenever an event is triggered. The example script in the FAQ seems to be suitable for my purpose. But I am not a perl programmer, so the simple task of placing a call to my own (bash) script is too high for me :cry: Could somebody please show me, what I have to ...
