Hi, I'm trying to update from 1.32.2 to the just released 1.32.3 and I'm having some issues with the update process. At first zmupdate would report that "the database is already at version 1.32.2" and it would skip the update process altogether; a while later I redownloaded the upstream package and ...

Yes, this specific error can be fixed by rewriting to 'api/app/webroot' instead of just 'api'.

@asker Thanks for the info! So in other words, the project is not exactly dead dead but rather on long-term hiatus, with you and Phil still in contact with each other, and with investors still finding the idea interesting enough to invest in it whenever they hear about it. So in theory oZone could ...

Hmm. This is weird. The default path is supposed to be /cgi-bin/nph-zms, as is evident both by the official apache.conf and also by this part of CMakeLists.txt: set(ZM_PATH_ZMS "/cgi-bin/nph-zms" CACHE PATH "Web url to zms streaming server, default: /cgi-bin/nph-zms") This means that for some reason ...

@asker Yes, of course I meant zmeventserver and not zmNinja, but seeing as you're the developer of both I managed to mess up the names. And also, it's a good thing that you're trolling these parts because that's actually how I learned about your use of OpenCV for motion detection in the first place ...

So leaving everything else the same and changing H264 passthrough to X264 encoding worked, with only the fps count dropping? Then yes, it's a problem with ffmpeg and ZM's interaction with it, either due to a corner-case that is not properly handled within ZM (very possible, since writing directly to ...

Sorry for the very late reply. That worked, but you still get the wrong link in the monitor view, right? Well, getting the image when /zm is removed from the link means we can be sure that Nginx correctly points /cgi-bin to your CGI folder, and also that Nginx does not erroneously rewrite /cgi-bin ...

Well, zone configuration and frame filtering is really an art of its own. I'd venture that it can be done (yes, by using "max blob area", but also "max pixel threshold" and pretty much every other "max something" in there), albeit it would require too much manual tinkering with the filters and the ...

And once again, the same issue with the not-found decoder for the detected codec: 10/26/18 01:58:08.231466 zmc_m5[13280].DB1-zm_ffmpeg_camera.cpp/503 [Failed to find decoder (h264_mmal)] 10/26/18 01:58:08.231676 zmc_m5[13280].DB1-zm_ffmpeg_camera.cpp/514 [Video Found decoder h264] 10/26/18 01:58:08 ...

This is the second time I've seen this particular error reported ("zm_ffmpeg_camera.cpp/710 [Unable to read packet from stream 0: error -541478725 "End of file".]"). Everything points to ffmpeg, but whether it's something to do with ffmpeg itself, or how ZM utilizes ffmpeg to do its own thing, or ...

Here you go: https://www.onvif.org/specs/stream/ONVIF-Streaming-Spec-v210.pdf Supposedly it's a multicast. I'll admit that my experience with docker containers is minimal to say the least, but ports should not (key word: SHOULD not) be an issue since the ZM server is the one initiating the ...

Getting the Apache default page means that Apache itself is working correctly, but that doesn't mean everything else does as well, let alone ZoneMinder which is a separate beast. I would need the Apache logs to be sure, but if as you say everything else works (mainly MariaDB and ZM itself), then ...

Do you mean a second drive as in extra storage, or a second drive as in running a separate ZM or database instance from it? If the former, then all you need to do is mount that drive somewhere and then go to Options -> Storage -> ADD NEW STORAGE and fill in the needed info. Then you can use the new ...

Does that "strange call" look like this? http://localhost/zm/index.php/zm/index.php?view=request&request=stream&connkey=476597&command=99 If so, it's a known issue already reported upstream and being looked into. Also, yeah, I forgot that there is a Wiki for ZM where the info about multiwatch and ...

Heh, thanks :) By the way, I'll leave this here in case someone gets bitten: when running ZM through Nginx, one needs to find a way to run fcgiwrap in multiple instances (e.g. via a little gem called 'multiwatch') in order to be able to view more than one CGI stream simultaneously. This not only ...
