dvr controls

Post by nux »

Hi all,

I have installed zoneminder 1.23.3 on Ubuntu 8.04 64 bit AMD , and all works OK . But the dvr controls don't work. I can see them, but they don't respond.
I installed mootools in my zm directory , I saved it as mootools.js. When I open a monitor in my firefox error console I can see "Ajax is not defined" in mootools.ext.js (line 50) as a first error, the other errors are related to it

can you help me to solve the problem ?

Thanks !

Interestingly I'm having the same problem. I also experience this with cambozola in terms of not being able to control the video playback.

Any information yet on a solution?

Still hoping for a very quick reply on this. It seems that no matter if we use mootools or cambozola neither will allow us to control the video playback mechanisms. This is a rather critical issue for me at the moment and I can confirm that the same errors are showing for me.

I wonder if we're using too new of a mootools package and if so, can someone refer us to the proper version that will work and will no throw the error at line 50 in mootools.ext.js (which I assume is not finding the proper 'Ajax' variable definition from mootools.js?

I'm also seeing a similar error in index.php at line 94 with the 'Ajax' var. Also a few undefined vars in index.php around line 282 ('streamCmdReq.request( streamCmdParms+"&command=1" );').

Actually, whenever I run any command on the Feed view I receive errors from within index.php. Such as trying to stop the feed: streamCmdReq.request( streamCmdParms+"&command=3" );
and then of course it gives me the Undefined value error.

Please do advise ASAP.

Possible solution?

Post by the_crowbar »

I am seeing this same problem on Ubuntu 8.04 amd64 with ZM 1.23.3. The problem appears to be caused by mootools-1.2. mootools1.11 had an Ajax class. This is not present in 1.2 (although I think most of its functions have been moved into the Request class). I briefly looked at changing the PHP code for ZM to work with the new version of mootools, but for now it would be faster to get mootools-1.11. I don't have a copy so if someone else does can they post a link?

Thanks,

Any luck on getting that link to the old *working* mootools? I'd be happy to host it if someone could just upload it for our use.
