at this point im thinking this has less to do with the camera and more to do with some oddity with how its setup, on ubuntu

i noticed another strange though, i should be able to start zoneminder from the website console right? i click on stopped, and try to start it, nothing happens
i checked the logs, nothing is logged anywhere except this:
10/24/06 21:26:12.633826 zmpkg[5047].INF [Command: start]
10/24/06 21:26:14.491113 zmpkg[5047].ERR [Unable to find valid 'su' syntax]
in zmpkg.log

Do you have the sudo package installed?

Doing a search for unable+valid+su+syntax

Sorry I can't simulate here as I only have CentOS, Fedora, Mandriva, and Suse and I have never seen this problem other than what's been posted to the forum.
Hopefully the above post can help you sort it out.

Corey

sweet! 1 step closer

i got it to actually say its RUNNING now!

also my monitor has a link to a page that shows a broken image link

it says the monitor is idle (~2fps)
it set its max fps to 2
im gonna try changing links (to image grabs) 1.1 and 1.0 again, and regexp stuff again

also for your list of things to try change cgi-bin/nph-zms => cgi-bin/zms

i set it up to use scripts as the cgi-bin
but the link website still tries to use cgi-bin

so i did ln -s scripts cgi-bin

but now its not running the nph-zms
its surving up the binary file as a big text file

i see at the top ELF

obviuosly not an image..

guess i gotta figure out how to make apache host its output rather than serve it

also whats the difference between zms and nph-zms?

sweet i just changed the path in the options

it works!!!!!!!!

i am about to look at my driveway from anywhere

thanks everyone for the help!

dang after this maybe i should make a real wiki entry for ubuntu, the ones posted are practically worthless

Anyone can edit entries in the Wiki, so if you think something is incorrect you can change it, or perhaps just add a comment. It's probably easier than doing a whole new one.

does the axis 206 is able to get 7 fps ?

the 206 yes, and i would think the 205w could as long as the image size didnt swamp the wifi
