ZoneMinder Forums

When i activate "Authenticate user logins to ZoneMinder" = yes (builtin or external) and visit with the correct user/pass I don't see live view images anymore.

When i shut off this option I see my live stream again.

I see in my apache2 log: Error, unable to authenticate user

In my acess.log no errors,
root@thisrouter:/tmp/motion/cam1# tail -f /var/log/apache2/access.log

I hope I can grant some rights to a user or a file or modify some settings in my apache2 to solve this problem.

For live example go: http://thisrouter.doesntexist.org/index.php

With the option : Authenticate user logins to ZoneMinder (?) disactivated I can see my images in live feed. To add security I created a .htaccess file in the root of my zoneminder dir.

I assume you are using the built in authenication (not apache one) and you probably see this error in the system log.
Mar 26 09:59:32 ZM zms[3742]: ERR [Unable to authenticate user]

zms fails to authenicate you for some reason. Please make sure you dont have any weird characters such as spaces in your username and password.

I can log in with my username and password on the zoneminder security, see the pages, but can't see the images of the live feed if i turn that security on.

I disabled the Zoneminder security and added apache .htaccess security. It works fine for me nowdays.

Use AUTH_RELAY to none... that'll fix it!!! use both ZM and Apache...

This doesn't seem too smart(read safe) to me......
