Newly Installed but watch page not working

[RichyF]

Hi guys
Im not sure if im capturing images from my cameras or even if the system is working. I have a standard fedora 4 installed. I have installed all of the requirements then done a

Code: Select all

"./configure --with-webdir=/var/www/html/ --with-cgidir=/var/www/cgi-bin"

make

make install

SQL server has been setup and seems to be working fully. The ZM interface seems to work ok and i have added my funky bad camera's (2 x gadspot nc-1000's).

One of my cameras is setup as per the following

Maximum FPS : 0
Remote Host Name : 192.168.15.4
Remote Host Port : 80
Remote Host Path : /Jpeg/CamImg.jpg

If i browse to http://192.168.15.4/Jpeg/CamImg.jpg i get a nice images of my doorway but im not getting any recorded activity and a broken link image in my watch screen.

Where should i start debugging process? How do i check if the zm is getting the image ok to start with etc?

Thanks for any help

Cheers guys

Code: Select all

03/16/06 10:36:16.076049 zmdc[2314].INF [Starting pending process, zma -m 2]
03/16/06 10:36:16.077573 zmdc[2418].INF ['zma -m 2' started at 06/03/16 10:36:16]

03/16/06 10:36:16.096033 zmdc[2314].ERR ['zma -m 2' crashed, exit status 255]

Thats my logs from my zmdc.log

Is it possible to tell from that what im doing wrong?
Can anyone suggest a menu for debugging what ive done wrong?

to me it looks like your not getting images into zm from the cam. Do you have any other 'normal' cams to test with or use one of axis's demo cams on the web to check your config then you can play with the gadspots

These worked on my old setup which seems odd it doesnt on the new one.
Has anyone got the settings for the axis cameras so i can test it?
Also it seems odd that it sais "crashed". If i enter in the url in my browser (http://192.168.15.4/Jpeg/CamImg.jpg) and wget that image on the actual server they both show the image fine which is odd.

Cheers for your help

Hi guys
I have completely re-installed my new server using the fedora 3 iso, im now running 2 servers. One is installed from the liveCD and one is installed on from the Fedora 3 ISO.

My original server is running the LiveCD and that is working fine with my cameras using the snapshot feature of the camera "http://192.168.1.5/Jpeg/CamImg.jpg".

However with the exact same settings on my newly installed server (fedora 3 iso version) it is not working. I can ping both camers and a wget gets the images fine.

If i run "zmu -m 9 -q -v" on the working server i get :-

Running it on my new box doesnt output anything
"./zmu -m 2 -q -v"
I have noticed i cant run the new one without ./ infront, could that have anything to do with it?

Can anyone help?
Cheers Richy
