Zoneminder Console - Stopped -v1.22.3

paulandgabriela · Post by **paulandgabriela** » Thu Dec 07, 2006 7:14 pm

Hi guys,

I finally managed to build and install it. I got the ****ing Logitech QuickCam Zoom working with xawtv. Configured it also in Zoneminder, my final camera's are still to be shipped.
But when I try to start zoneminder via the console it always shows stopped.

Anyone knows why?

Thanks,

Paul

Found something I guess:
Dec 7 19:59:49 localhost zmfix[11461]: ERR [Can't stat /dev/video: Permission denied]

I build it myself on Fedora Core 6. It is not a distro.
I did chmod 777 /dev/vide0 and now I get:

Turn off SELinux.

Thanks,

Yes, that helped, the application now shows running and I can click on the name of the camera.. A window pops up with the name of the camera, however there is a small pictogram with a red X in it and no image to be seen

Cheers,

Paul

Hi Corey,

Thanks for your support till now. I looked into the shared memory:

When looking at the shared memory:
------ Shared Memory Segments --------
key shmid owner perms bytes nattch status
0x00000000 0 root 644 790528 2 dest
0x00000000 32769 root 644 790528 2 dest

0x7a6d2001 557070 apache 700 18433028 0

The entry 0x7a6d2001 is the one for ZoneMinder. However the odd thing is that compared with the rest the NATTCH=0 and Status=blank does not correspond with the rest???

There is also a similar post being:
ZoneMinder Forum Index -> Hardware Compatibility List->Logitech QuickCam Messenger

I suspect him to have the same kind of problem. I have put the image size 640x480 and RGB24

I do not have a clue what it means but at least it is odd.

This is the result of the ZMU command:
[root@localhost ~]# zmu -d /dev/video0 -q -v

While writing this it turns out that I have to set it to YUV420P and NOT PAL

PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers,

Paul
