Red X when trying to view streaming video

[shinomen]

I have installed ZoneMinder 1.24.2 on Centos 5.3. I have added my camera--SkyIP cam 747W--connected wirelessly and configured using the information from this link http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Airlink_101.

I set the camera to record for about 40 seconds and set it back to monitor. I can now see there is an event for the recorded video but again I get the red X.

I check my appache error log and found the following error

Code: Select all

[Sun Apr 25 08:39:51 2010] [error] [client 192.168.1.81] array (\n  0 => \n  array (\n    'file' => '/var/www/html/zm/ajax/stream.php',\n    'line' => 55,\n    'function' => 'ajaxError',\n    'args' => \n    array (\n      0 => 'socket_sendto( /tmp/zms-243292s.sock ) failed: No such file or directory',\n    ),\n  ),\n  1 => \n  array (\n    'file' => '/var/www/html/zm/index.php',\n    'line' => 116,\n    'args' => \n    array (\n      0 => '/var/www/html/zm/ajax/stream.php',\n    ),\n    'function' => 'require_once',\n  ),\n), referer: http://192.168.1.198/zm/index.php?view=watch&mid=1

I found the following post http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=57753 which tellme to do the following:

Code: Select all

# mkdir /var/www/cgi-bin/zm 
# cp -a /usr/libexec/zoneminder/cgi-bin/* /var/www/cgi-bin/zm

When I did this I get the following error message:

Code: Select all

cp: cannot stat `/usr/libexec/zoneminder/cgi-bin/*': No such file or directory

I'm not very good at linux so getting this far has been a struggle but now I don't know what to do.

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks.

I guess I fixed it by changing STREAM_METHOD to mpeg insted of jpeg.

Now I get the video!
