Ok,

I am making terrific progress.

I now have clean configure and think I am close to having this 1.19.1 working.

However, I am not getting any image (Broken Link) when looking at the monitor window.

I am using an Axis 2420 2.40. The monitor is obviously configured as remote, the source is the camera’s IP, and the path is /axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi

When I issue a wget, things look good to me:

[wmoore /tmp]$ wget -S http://192.168.0.50/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi
--19:24:28-- http://192.168.0.50/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi
=> `image.cgi'
Connecting to 192.168.0.50:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response...
1 HTTP/1.0 200 OK
2 Connection: Close
3 Server: Camd
4 Content-Type: image/jpeg

[ <=> ] 180,973 4.79M/s

19:24:28 (4.79 MB/s) - `image.cgi' saved [180973]

I think this clue is in the zmdc.log file:

Starting pending process, zmc -m 1

'zmc -m 1' crashed at 04/04/02 21:33:40, exit status 255

The above messages are repeated over and over again. I have searched the forums, just cant seem tim find the reason for the failures. I need another nudge.

Any help would per appreciated.

Great - someone else with a 2420....I am having a pile of fun trying to get mine to work.

I fixed all of the shmgets by:

1) Rebooting to clear everything out (clever people could probably do this without rebooting)
2) Setting my shmmax to 300 Mbytes. You could also reduce the frame buffer to 5 frames to see if this is the problem.
3) Starting zmpkg.pl from the commant line as root - I am getting permissions errors if I try and start from the browser

If you have done all of that, then you are at the limit of my expertise. Mine is still crashing - but there are a load of jpeg errors, which you are not getting.
