ZoneMinder Forums

Thanks for this. I have just followed it (except I did not use --with-ffmpeg not --enable-mmap) and in the end everything works, including zmupdate.pl, I just needed the correct username and password. I also needed to edit /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/default_vhost.include to change localhost to zoneminder ...

You learn something new everyday, didn't know you could do that. Just tried it and that works fine. Trouble is firefox is so slow when I use it at home so tried it out on opera 10, works on that too. I know opera does not do the streaming but the picture quality is better on the stills with opera.

Is there any way to make the images on the stills overview page bigger and have more on the page.
Some times it is quicker to scan the stills by eye when you have may events then it is to look at the stream.

Thanks for the reply. I will give it ago

I thought I might upgrade to the latest zoneminder, particularly since gentoo has the latest version as an ebuild. However I get the following error message emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "~dev-lang/perl-5.10.1" I have 5.8.8 installed. So I want to know if perl 5.10.1 is really needed ...

Thanks for this I will try out the fix. I had the same problem and started looking at the stills because of the problem.

Do the headings in the event stats view correspond to the settings in the zone. I was going to use this to help reduce nuisance alarms.

thanks for the replies. I don't seem too be getting email alerts. Never mind.

Ok I will try another browser. May go back to opera. Has anyone tried it?

This not necessarily a zoneminder problem but when I am viewing events the event will stop and the browser window will have the message about transfering data from etc. Most of the time it will start again after a wait of up to a couple of minutes. Occasionally (like now) it will not recover and I ...

Fix for point 1, was for me not to be so stupid. All I had to do was edit the zm.conf file.

Thanks, I can find the details now.

Seems you were right the ZM_PATH_WEB changed in the zm.conf. So when I changed it and ZM restarted, it got rid of all the events. The zmupdate.pl asks if you want a DB backup, which I did . I restored from this but still no events. Seems it does not also backup the events. Luckily I had done an ...

Thanks for the reply. I run Zoneminder on Gentoo which has a predefined ebuild script for the compile. Since I do not change the standard I do not think the problem happened at compile time. In fact the achives were there as I was trying to stream the events but it failed. They disappeared when I ...

I have just upgraded to 1.23.3 from 1.23.1 using the ebuild on gentoo. Everything went well except I could not stream the events. Looking at the forum someone had got round it by copying zms and nph-zms from /var/www/zoneminder/cgi-bin to /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin. Not wanting to do this straight ...

Thanks for the responce. Is this under options - debug. Is the alarmed frame stats only in thel atest version.
