Ubuntu 16.04 with ZM 1.30.3

[bbunge]

The earlier issue of the API not working has been fixed for Ubuntu 16.04. For a fresh install see:

https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ubuntu_Serv ... e_easy_way

If you have upgraded and the API does not work you can add the "missing link" php-apcu-bc which has been added to the iconnor PPA
apt update
apt install php-apcu-bc

Restart Apache
service apache2 reload

Thank you so much for the post!! I updated my Ubuntu 16.04LTS to zm 1.30.3 and my API stopped working (no zmNinja), until I grabbed the two packages and reloaded apache2.

Now the API is working fine again.

That's what I get for updating right away.

You do not need to add cakephp

Sadly, I also lost API access with Ubuntu 16.04 and ZM 1.30.3

I successfully performed the following but API still doesn't work
apt update
apt install php-apcu-bc
sudo apt-get install cakephp
sudo service apache2 reload
sudo service zoneminder reload
rebooted zoneminder server

The following error continues to appear in the apache2 error.log
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function apc_fetch() in /usr/share/zoneminder/www/api/lib/Cake/Cache/Engine/ApcEngine.php on line 78

Can anyone please help?

I tried php5-apcu-bc and had no success but I after I installed php5-apcu and restarted the API worked again.
