streaming does not work

Post by Manwe »

Hi all,

I'm using ZoneMinder on Debian with Apache2.
It seems to be working ok for most of the features: I can see the zones, events are being captured, I can even see the different images captured, etc.
The only thing that is not working is the streaming window. When clicking on the Monitor Name the streaming should show but a broken image link shows. If I try to switch to still images the same happens.

Does anybody knows how to solve that?
First I though that would be the the browser but it is not, I have tested from multiple machines where streaming works for other applications.

Could it be the CGI configuration in Apache? Could anybody show me whether Apache2 needs special configuration to run the nph-zms or zms?

Thanks in advance.

i assume your using jpeg streaming if so you could try changing the path in zm settings and removing the nph-

jameswilson:

I'm using jpeg streaming, in fact the streaming does not work no matter what streaming option I use.


corel:

I have checked all the ZM log files and there's no error.



Everything seems to work verywell except the live image (streaming or still) and the streaming of events, however the events I can see the still images perfect.

I'm really getting stopped on this... don't know where else to try.
Thanks again.

looking at the Apache error.log file I've discovered that it does appear a bunch of errors in there from ZoneMinder:

[Mon Dec 18 11:45:03 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /var/www/www, referer: http://localhost/zm/index.php?view=even ... c=1&page=1

It seems a problem with paths or something like that, but it's weird because the other parts of the system do work and show images....

Any idea?

Thanks

looks like you might have the wrong path configured in zm.conf for your web directroy.
