ZoneMinder Forums

Hi all,

It has been a year since I last played with ZM and I have just installed it and have a slight problem.

Although I can see JPG images from my Axis 207W at http://192.168.2.90/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi

I cannot see them through zoneminder. I have configured source as 'Remote Host Name' as '192.168.2.90' and 'Remote Host Path' as '/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi'

On the console screen the camera ip is RED and when I click the cam name, I get no image.

Do you have any problems why ZM is not happy?

a) check if resolution configured in ZM matches images returned by camera using this url
b) check shared memory

but first of all, check logs.

Thanks for your help W.

I have checked items 1 and 2 as suggested. Here is the log file. Any assistance appreciated.

Looks like you have two problems. First being that the IP cam is returning Unauth, check your path setting for the cam, you will have to dig in the camera manual or search the forum to see if anyone has setup this model cam.

Second is that you need to install pcre-devel package and rebuild zm.

Cordel,

Thank you, you make me feel like such a newb!

I will disable password request on camera and retry.

I don't know what pcre-devel is but I will have a dig around on net.

Thanks alot to both you and W.
