ZoneMinder Forums

I'm having ZoneMinder 1.25.0 running on top of Ubuntu 12.10 server 32 bit. I'm using one IP-400 camera (from DealExtreme).

Installation was done according to instructions:
http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.ph ... e_easy_way

Before installing the system on real HW, I tested the installation (Ubuntu server + ZoneMinder) twice under VirtualBox and on both tests I succeeded getting monitor feed running.

But now, when I open monitor feed window, Cambozola starts and I just get the error message: "java_net_SocketException: Unexpected end of file from server"

Events are being generated though, so it seems zoneminder is able to fetch images from IP camera succesfully.

Any ideas how to get this problem tackled?

I have the same issue.

OK, after much effort reinstalling a number of times it turns out that a very simple thing is occuring here. Apparently when you use OPT_USE_AUTH it causes cambozola to do this. I followed the setup instructions from this site http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.ph ... e_easy_way. This works flawlessly so long as you don't turn on OPT_USE_AUTH... This sucks since I would like to be able to access this remotely from a mobile device and limit access levels.

Strangly I found this... http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewto ... 566#p74566

Apparently when you turn on OPT_USE_AUTH when using cambozola it breaks due to the Options ----> System ----> AUTH_RELAY not being set to "none" for whatever reason. I am using SSL so I guess I don't care too much, but it's still a little blah. I would love to hear an answer on this or perhaps even a bug fix (I'm dreaming so far as I can tell on that one).

Yes, I can verify the solution. Authentication is the key. When I disable it, things start working, and when I enable it on virtual computer, monitor window stops working.

Thanks for debugging I'll also start searching for solution for this.
