ZoneMinder Forums

Hey Guys,
I've been twinkering with my Foscam and trying to figure this out and after all the time spent trying to figure it out I come to you!! . When ever I try to probe I get a "Unable to probe network cameras, status is '127'" error.


Foscam webui: 2.4.8.12
Device Firmware: 11.14.1.46
ZoneMinder Ver: v1.24.2

I've been using the web insterface of the foscam for a while now and would like do be able to further manipulate the camera without the proprietary activex plugin.

================================

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04, and I've installed zoneminder through synaptics (apt-get install zoneminder)


Below are the processes running:

Below are the screenshots of my configuration:













Error I get when I try to probe:


Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

Just to add to my comment, I've also confirmed MySQL data is being updated.


The only error I get is the following:

root@olympus:/etc/zm# /etc/init.d/zoneminder restart
Stopping ZoneMinder: Warning, overriding installed ./zm.conf file with local copy
Warning, overriding installed ./zm.conf file with local copy
success

Starting ZoneMinder: Warning, overriding installed ./zm.conf file with local copy
success

root@olympus:/etc/zm#


but MySQL data on the zm table is populating just fine (tried adding/removing) and the data is being updated on the db.







I'm thinking of adding more cameras to my setup and this is why I've been trying to get zoneminder to work as after seeing screenshots of the software I think this would be the best solution but hopefully the foscam camera can be configured.
