ZM doesn't startup

[brunovg]

Hi there,

I installed ZoneMinder on a Ubuntu Server 4 months ago and worked very well.
Suddenly it stopped working.
This is the error when I try to start it:

Code: Select all

Starting service zm ..

Starting ZoneMinder: Bareword "ZM_PATH_LOGS" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/ZoneMinder/Logger.pm line 153.

.. failed!

Thanks.

I see the same error. Any suggestions?

$ sudo /etc/init.d/zm start

This error is usually caused by a corrupt config table in the database.
