Zoneminder Zone Configuration Zone Image gone

I've had no issues running Zoneminder 1.24.2 on Ubuntu 11.04 / 32 Bit until a couple of days ago when I noticed that the zone image was gone in the zone configuration screen. Everything else is there and ZM appears to be working fine.

I did do a "downsize" of all of the screens to 16:9 (640X480 to 640X368) a few days back.

Anyone ever see this?

Did you ever solve this problem? My zone configuration image is also missing. Everything else works fine.

I just had this problem. Check the log for

Jan 31 19:22:03 host zmu[2168]: ERR [Can't open Zones4.jpg: Permission denied]
Jan 31 19:22:11 host zmu[2171]: ERR [Can't open Zones4.jpg: Permission denied]

The solution
sudo chown www-data:www-data events
sudo chown www-data:www-data images
sudo chown www-data:www-data temp

It may be because I mounted 3 seperate folders from on a separate hard disk partitions e.g. In /etc/fstab I have

/ext_hd/events /usr/share/zoneminder/events

I didn't look any deeper that that.
