Hello,

There is no image displayed when I am trying to define a zone area. All I get is the 4 green dots under the Zone image title.

I do get an image when I click on the name of the camera from the Console screen.

I am guessing it is related to the shared memory error. But I am not sure.

I did try changing the 7a6d to different numbers several times and neither the error or the zone image will show up. I did change the shared memory settings to what's below (and rebooted so they take effect):
kernel.shmall = 167772160
kernel.shmmax = 167772160

Thanks,

Nevermind, I figured it out.

If it helps anyone, I originally compiled ZM with cmake. I switched back to the ./configure with options and compiled it again.

After that everything is working correctly.

Plus it helped that I created the following directories:
/var/lib/zoneminder/events
/var/lib/zoneminder/images
/var/lib/zoneminder/sock
/var/lib/zoneminder/swap
/var/lib/zoneminder/temp
