PHP7 issues with ZM API (due to bundled CakePHP 2.5-RC)

[felixita]

Ok, i've tried to comment the following lines in api/config/app.php:

//'Security' => [
// 'salt' => '__SALT__',
//],

Security.salt error is vanished but when i try to connect ZM with zm-ninja i get an api error.

You can't comment those lines - add a random value instead. And I'd recommend you don't fiddle with zmNinja yet. If your APIs are not working, zmNinja won't work.

Get to a point where on your browser http://server/zm/api/monitors.json works

Swapped lib folder for CakePHP 2.8.0, worked in PHP 5.5. Updated to php 7 using PPA and confirmed that API still working. Pull request submitted for 2.8.0 update.

I Confirm that Zm-Ninja work out of the box on zoneminder 1.29.1 on Arch linux (php7)
