Hello all,

I installed zoneminder (1.24.2-8) on a debian6 machine with apt-get. After a while I got the ip cams setup in Nodect mode.

In the webinterface the function and source are green so I guess it works. But when I click montage no image is shown.

I can't seem to find the problem (or an error message), where should I look?

Some more searching led me to the apache error logs:

[Thu Jun 02 12:30:38 2011] [error] [client XX.XX.XX.XX] array (\n 0 => \n array (\n 'file' => '/usr/share/zoneminder/ajax/stream.php',\n 'line' => 55,\n 'function' => 'ajaxError',\n 'args' => \n array (\n 0 => 'socket_sendto( /tmp/zms-662593s.sock ) failed: No such file or directory',\n ),\n ),\n 1 => \n array (\n 'file' => '/usr/share/zoneminder/index.php',\n 'line' => 116,\n 'args' => \n array (\n 0 => '/usr/share/zoneminder/ajax/stream.php',\n ),\n 'function' => 'require_once',\n ),\n), referer: http://test.forumhetpraathuis.nl/index. ... ge&group=0

this happens when I open the montage or cycle window when I use either mpeg or jpeg streaming.

The .sock files do appear in the /tmp folder but the disappear almost instantly.

ow and I did manage to record a few events. I can watch them as frames or stills and generate a video, but I can't watch them as stream.

Check the highlighted location, see if the socket file is created and what the permissions are.

Thank you for the help. I found the problem, turns out it was a problem with the cgi-bin not working properly
