Excellent - issue 1 seems to be resovled thanks. All three of my cameras will now record on motion detection and the first frame is not old, with several captures off each camera triggered by movement. Issue 2 (not loading frames) is present on two of the three cameras I have configured. On the ...

I have a new install of 1.36.35 on Rocky 9.5. I have an issue with the first frame in each event being old. I installed it a few days ago. I thought it was working but had an issue that a HDD failed, I had left the default location and that filled, preventing database writes as well. To try and ...

I am having exactly the same issues. Did you find a resolution?

I tried zmaudit.pl and got this as part of the response:
10/12/24 08:55:11.333831 zmaudit[468360].ERR [main:117] [Can't open pid file at /var/run/zoneminder/zm.pid]
Not sure if that is a real issue or not.

To update my situation it looks like the harddisk failed at 17:47 - just found it is mounted readonly and there are lots of IO errors.
Does ZM switch to the default disk if it can't write to the specified disk?

Me too. Looks like it started yesterday at 17:57 until 19:22. I have exactly the same as you - two drives configured and all cameras recording to one or other. Both cameras on one drive seemed to end up on default. Is it coincidence or is there some wierd date bug given that it's happened to us on ...

I have just done a new install of Centos 8 and ZM 1.34.22. I have setup my monitor and it is triggering on motion detection, but not showing individual frames. From the Console, I click on the number under events and the list of events appears. I then click on the name of one event and the video ...

So, disabling SELinux I do get a bit further. But... I don't recall disabling it before. A bit of searching reveals that for years people have been getting ZM to work with SELinux. There seems to be different solutions (and some fairly old now). Has something changed since Dec 2017 (which is when I ...

Is there a specific log file to post? The logs on screen are continuously updated - the entirety would be an awful lot of data! I primarily follow what I did last time (I always make a note of what I've done just in case I need to re-do it, which in this case I did so it was useful). Last time that ...

New install and I am getting "Unable to open input rtsp://a.b.c.d:554/11 due to: Permission denied". I previously had Zoneminder working on a Centos 7 server, but after doing a routine (non-ZM) update (which I think included a kernel update), the server would no longer reboot properly (almost ...

For me, this has resolved itself. I noticed that Centos updates recently included ffmpeg updates so I disabled my cron job to restart the Zoneminder service every hour and for the last month or so this issue has not returned. Fingers crossed it is now not going to happen again. My version of ffmpeg ...

As reported previously I have this issue. It is on this model of camera: SV-B01-1080P-POE. I have upgraded on Centos (7) to Zoneminder 1.32.2 and still experience the issue. I currently have the system set to force a restart of Zoneminder every hour to limit the length of time it causes an issue. On ...

This is on Centos 7. The two directories were clearly there before I upgraded - they both contain files from Sep 8 and Oct 24 (I think Oct 24 is probably the date I upgraded Zoneminder). But they are all small files. I stand to be corrected, but I don't believe I caused these directories to appear ...

Thanks - it is. 100% used. I've never had this before, so not sure how I should resolve it. Also, has something changed with the new release to cause this? This is the contents of /dev/shm: -rw------- 1 apache apache 311046160 Oct 25 20:00 zm.mmap.2 -rw------- 1 apache apache 311046160 Oct 25 20:46 ...

I've upgraded from 1.30 to 1.32 on Centos 7. Upgraded the database. Now only one of the two cameras will run at a time. When I restarted ZM, the first camera was capturing and the second was "not running". Everything looked OK and it was enabled. When I stop the first camera (un tick enabled against ...

Since setting up a cron job to restart Zoneminder once per day I've not (yet) seen any evidence of the problem - at most I'll get one day before the issue occurs. I am wondering whether it actually won't occur in that duration so will never see it again. It's not ideal in that it shouldn't need to ...
