Broken Event Thumbnails

Post by SuperSpy »

I set up zoneminder under Debian 5 x64, and moved the paths and files for zoneminder to another directory where I had a large quantity of space. I moved the apache webroot for the zoneminder directory to this new directory, and changed DIR_IMAGES and DIR_EVENTS to point to 'images' and 'events', respectively.

I then enabled WEB_LIST_THUMBS and USE_DEEP_STORAGE.

Now when I view the events list (main console -> events), all the thumbnail images are broken, and the still images they link to are also broken. The Apache error log shows a file not found for each attempt, and when I go to the events directory on the machine it will have named and numbered directories for each device, but none of them have any contents.

For example, the thumbnail page will link to a thumbnail at '/events/4/69/12/31/19/00/00/011-capture.jpg', but the '/events/4' directory will be completely empty.

Any suggestions? I'm running out of options to look through. :(

Hi,

You can try setting ZM directory paths back to original, create your events folder in another partition and make a symlink from the events folder to the real events folder.
