Problems authenticate user logins to ZoneMinder

[lukeyduke]

Hi,

I have managed to just about complete configuring Zoneminder 1.25 on CentOS 6.3. I have having problems activating the OPT_USE_AUTH option. I cannot login using the default password.

I have checked the hashed password and I am entering it correct. It is 'admin'. I am just always returned to the login page.

Has anyone encountered this before? I figure it is maybe something to do with the PHP sessions settings or a file permission.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Luke

Just in case anyone else has the same problem. Check the permissions of the PHP Sessions folder. On CentOS 6.3 this is /var/lib/php/session

Thanks for your post! I spent a few days trying to find the solution.
chmod 777 on the phpsessions directory did it.
