*Update*

I setup an http event (axis interface) using only the ZM ip address and tested the connection successfuly. Any ideas why I am getting a "connection refused" when testing a tcp event? Has anyone run into this? Is there a special syntax to use? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you kingofkya for responding. Unfortunately, I do not have a public accessible website to link images too... If it helps: I do not have authentication setup in Zoneminder (so I don't know why it is refusing connection from my Axis cameras) The firmware on the Axis cameras is the latest, v4.49 ...

I am trying to off-load motion detection to my AXIS 212PTZ cameras to lighten the load on ZM. I followed the instructions here: http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/AxisMotionDetection, but when I test the connection to my ZM box, I get this: Connection failed: Connection refused. Whenever I try ...

Well, I am stumped... I do appreciate the help I have received! I think I am going to have to shelve ZM. I am in a production situation with little time left. Thank you everyone! This is a great community!

I have had a time consuming ordeal trying to get ZM configured to use a second hard drive to store the events/images folders. I keep getting permission errors and I have the info on a separate post here. Is there a way to do a fresh install of ZM directing it to use the secondary hard drive for ...

I added www-data as a sudo user, restarted apache2, restarted zm... Same permission error All this to have events stored on a second data drive. If there were instructions to install zm from scratch using a second drive for data, I would almost be tempted to do that... O'well that's why we love the ...

The: /etc/apache2/httpd.conf is empty...

Ooops disregard... lol

Sorry again for my lacking...

what would be the syntax for adding www-data as a sudo user?

Hi everyone. I have relentlessly tried to get ZM up and running without having to ask for help, but I am finally stumped. I have been in IT for many years, but only have a few years experience with Linux and way less with ZM. Here is my problem: Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop AMD 64 Dual Processor 8GB RAM ZM 1 ...
