All,
I was able to resolve this on my box - check your apache config file (or sites-available configs) for a trailing slash on your cgi-bin line.
Here's mine:
Code: Select all
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin "/usr/lib/cgi-bin"
If it reads
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/usr/lib/cgi-bin" you need to remove the trailing slash.
Once you do that, save the config, then restart apache... see if that doesn't cure everything for you.

I have been following this post, and just looked at my apache files.
There was no extra zoneminder related files.
So I had to add this for my ubuntu 12.04 64bit server.
/etc/apache2/sites-available/zm
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/

Hi,
I have followed this post and have made (to the best of my ability) the changes indicated at each step. I still have no results.
I am running fedora 19 and have everything working properly except the streaming video. ie: I can't click on a monitor and get video. All I see is the space where the video should be.
Is it possible for someone to recap the changes made or suggest further action to get this thing working. It has become quite confusing for me and i suspect there are others who would also appreciate clarification and or further guidance.
Thanks for the help!

Hi,
I have found 2 files, httpd.conf and zoneminder.conf. I think they are properly coded as i found them. No trailing "/". Yet i still have the error as indicated in the log file. I am completely in the dark as where to look next.
httpd.conf
Code: Select all
# run by the server when requested rather than as documents sent to the
# client. The same rules about trailing "/" apply to ScriptAlias
# directives as to Alias.
#
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin "/var/www/cgi-bin"
</IfModule>
#
zoneminder.conf
Code: Select all
php_value short_open_tag 1
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/zm "/usr/libexec/zoneminder/cgi-bin"
<Directory "/usr/libexec/zoneminder/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride All
Options ExecCGI
Log
Code: Select all

Hi. I had same problem so in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf comment out the line ScriptAlias /cgi-bin "/var/www/cgi-bin"
restart and it should work. The problem is that it will only work in jpeg and not streaming on fedora.

I tried all these, and none worked. Here's what did:
First, try hitting your server with an internal IP rather than through the internet, per this:
http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewto ... 29&t=21139
That may work (it did for me)
For Internet access, trying changing the value of AUTH_RELAY:
http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewto ... UTH#p74566
At first, only changing the values of AUTH_RELAY worked, and not the fix invloving php.ini and the date.timezone value. But after some reboots and cache flushing, it finally worked.
Good luck.

Try version 1.26.3 first. Some of the 'solutions' I've seen proved to be red herrings for me.

Hi,
I just added recently a Webcam to my ZM server (5 cams!). All the previous 4 where capturing at 320x240 resolution, the new one is capturing at 1024x600. Everything run smooth until I realized that I got the infamous error Error socket_sendto...
I changed the resolution of the new cam to be 320x240 and restarted ZM. The error dissapeared. Back to the high resolution, restarted ZM, same error.
The problem dissapeared after changing the setting in WEB_L_STREAM_METHOD, WEB_M_STREAM_METHOD and WEB_H_STREAM_METHOD from MPEJ to JPEG.
Hope it helps!
