Hi, I upgraded from 2.23.3 today to 2.24.2 ZoneMinder, having an interesting variety of issues. My camera sources are mixed about 1/3 gree, 1/3 orange, and 1/3 red in the source list. Of them, if I click on any camera, it doesn't show an image at all, not even a placeholder. I can browse my old stills, but cannot view old streams or live feeds. My log files have a large quantity of the following:

Code: Select all

Mar  2 14:12:20 camera-srvr-01 zmwatch[16347]: ERR [Can't get shared memory id '7a6d001c', 28: No such file or directory]

I'm currently running with a --disable-mmap option when I ran ./config. It didn't make a difference when I ran it with --enable-mmap=on.

All cameras were showing green and functioning fine prior to the upgrade; so I'm not sure...what I blew up. I have shmmax/shmmall set appropriately (at least for the old version).

Only thing that seems it might be causing a problem is I was previously running the Ubuntu repository version of ZM, which of course I had to upgrade from source for the new version.

Any help? More info I need to give you?

Thanks!

Edit:

I am also getting the following in my Logs, although not on the massive scale that I'm getting the above messages:

I recompiled with --enable-mmap=yes, and still same problem - some monitors showing green, some yellow, some red, but none of them will show the live stream. Using JPEG; both Internet Explorer and FireFox. I'm getting the errors below in the syslog now. I did check that I'm compiling with the same settings for the cgi-bin and other folders as I was using in the old setup; when I had 1.22.2 ZM all was fine. Any thoughts?

Two thoughts:

1) You have run the appropriate database update...

2) In the "Options" -> Paths tab there's a setting for PATH_MAP which you've got set to /dev/shm (probably because that's the default). It has potentially useful help information mentioning mmap...

No idea whether either will be relevant

Funny you should mention #1; I ran across that earlier in a search (after I posted obviously) and re-ran the zmupdate.pl, told it to use an earlier ZM version. Now, I don't have those errors, and streams are functioning, but I have a black screen when trying to view a live feed, and there are errors related to capturing in my syslog. I don't have the system up at the moment so will post copies of the errors later (tired of Ubuntu wanting to run disk checks, so I figure if I let it complete one it'll quit bugging me).
