[SOLVED] Filter(s) not run automatically

Post by Crazyguy »

Hello,

I have a Zoneminder 1.24.4 installation and I created a filter to automatically archive events that happen during night time. The filter works like expected when run with the "Execute" button but it is not automatically executed.

I did not find anything interesting in the /var/log/zm/ logfiles.

What should I check next?

Unsure on 1.24.4 but in previous versions you need to check the "run in background" box and save the filter for it to execute automatically.

Ohh, I see... The checkbox was hidden in a menu behind the save button.
Thanks!

Got that fix from hard knocks university also on 1.21.3 (quite a while a go) but never forgot.
