ZoneMinder Forums

Hi i'm trying to get Zoneminder 1.24.1 working on Gentoo.

I'm having a bit of a problem though. I've enabled mmap. I've then created a 500MB tmpfs mounted at /var/tmp/zoneminder. I've configured zoneminder via the web interface to use this new location instead of /dev/shm.

A USB webcam i'm using is working fine. I'm now trying to make a Linksys WVC200 work.

I've configured the device as ffmpeg and with a URL of http://10.3.0.35/img/video.asf. I've configured the device to output 640x480. And configured the device within zoneminder with the same parameters.

However I see this in my logs:
Mar 24 20:05:37 wormhole zmdc[12153]: INF ['zmc -m 4' started at 09/03/24 20:05:37]

Mar 24 20:05:37 wormhole zmc_m4[12153]: ERR [Got unexpected memory map file size 9217192, expected 36865192]

And this on the console:

If I lower the device settings to 320x240 and do the same for the device within zoneminder. The device works fine and I see none of the above errors.

Is this likely to be related to the experimental nature of the mmap support or am I doing something wrong?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Try enabling debug and see if you can get anything more descriptive in the debug logs which you can limit to just zmc.

Also would be helpful to have backtrace info with it, see here:
http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.ph ... do_I_do.3F

Make sure you fully restart ZM after your image size change. Also check you don't have .zm.mmap files left lying around your tmpfs location that may have odd permissions etc and preventing them being deleted and/or resized.
