federom · Post by **federom** » Wed May 31, 2006 1:40 pm

Ive instaled the live cd, i uninstaled the zm version that come with the live cd (i deleted the base in mysql and delete all items) and after that i installed the 1,22,1 version of ZM , i have the problema that when i set up the axis camera i cant see it , and when i check to de /var/log/message appears this when i try to see live images from the camera

May 31 10:39:18 zm zmu[15519]: ERR [Config mismatch, expected 172 items, read 138. Try running 'zmupdate.pl -f' to reload config.]

i tried but it said that -f is not a valid option

Any ideas ???

Thanks in Advance !!!

did you install using the rpm, if so id just follow the instructions that Ross, provided. I have done numerous updates from 1.21.4 and 1.22.0 and 1.22.1 to 1.22.2 withouut any issues

From LiveCD Forum

ZoneMinder RPMs are available for Mandriva 2006 here:
http://www.elltel.net/melins/mdv_2006/

And for Mandrake 10.1 here:
http://www.elltel.net/melins/mdk_10.1/RPMS/

Note for zm-1.22.1 RPMs
If upgrading from zm-1.22.0 do not use "rpm -U"
Instead uninstall 1.22.0 with "rpm -e --noscripts zm"
This will leave your events and database intact. Then you can
install your update RPM with "rpm -i zm-1.22.1...." or whatever version.
This should only be needed for updates from 1.22.0 due to a bug in the
post uninstall script.

Note for zm-1.22.2 RPMS
If upgrading and you aren't using authentication, set it before upgrading. Otherwise you will be unable to access the zm console. If you get caught by this bug you will need to set ZM_OPT_USE_AUTH=1 in the zm DB manually.
If installing fresh authentication is already set. Login is default admin : admin

I have tried to test these RPMs for both fresh installations and updates and they work here. However time for extended testing is limited so they come with no warranty.

For questions or bug reports related to update RPMs please post as a new
thread in this forum, rather than posting to this thread. I will maintain this thread as a sort of FAQ / HOWTO

Id click on the mandriva rpm's link mate
