Ok, I am at a real loss for trying to get live video streaming working under ZoneMinder. I've been at this for days and can't seem to get anywhere. A little background info on my setup...
Operating System: Slackware 14.0 (64-bit)
ZoneMinder Version: 1.25.0
Webserver file directory: "/srv/httpd/htdocs/zm"
cgi-bin directory: "/srv/httpd/cgi-bin"
I was able to compile and install from source without too much of an issue. Afterwards, I got the apache webserver up and running along with ZoneMinder. However, no matter what I try I cannot get LIVE VIDEO STREAMING to work. I am testing with a local USB webcam plugged into my computer and a remote webserver that's streaming video. I am confident it is setup correctly because I see a ton of the following messages in the ZoneMinder logfiles:

I've verified the remote monitor is setup correctly because I can easily access by just typing in the location in my web browser and the stream shows up fine. I've also tested the local USB webcam stream via ffmpeg to make sure it is setup correctly.
Continuing on, I can put either of these into "Modetect" mode and trigger an event capture. Afterwards, I can successfully go view the still frames of that event capture, but can't get them to play back in a streaming fashion.
After hours of reading through the forums, I think my problem may have to do with my httpd.conf file for the apache webserver but I'm not positive. Can anyone out there help? I'm willing to post my config files if that helps...
I have ZoneMinder running successfully on an Ubuntu box but I'd really like to get this going on Slackware as that is what I typically use.

What browser are you using? Enable cambozola.jar.
Re: Live Video Streaming in Slackware 14.0
As I thought, it had to do with my 'httpd.conf' file for apache. I needed to uncomment the following line (which was commented out by default in Slackware 14.0):
#LoadModule cgi_module lib64/httpd/modules/mod_cgi.so
#LoadModule cgi_module lib64/httpd/modules/mod_cgi.so
