Can't see images or video streams

Post by hoops »

I recently setup zoneminder on a virtual machine on Centos 6.2 64bit . The install and compile of everything went off without issue and I am able to get the zoneminder web interface up and running. After setting up my 2 DCS-930L cameras I wasn't able to see any images or video streams. I have checked out post http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewto ... 29&t=18951 and that hasn't helped me any. As you can see from the logs zm is capturing data from the camera but when I try to play the active stream or review an event I get the error on the 3rd line.

Could you run:

cd /tmp/zm/
ls -al /tmp/zm/

Basically to verify that the user the zoneminder process is running under has read/write access to that special file?
