Hello,

I'd really appreciate some help with the following problem I've had since upgrading from 1.26.4 to 1.26.5 on Ubuntu 13.04

I'm getting the following error in the log:

2013-12-27 09:28:44.326630 zmdc 2959 ERR 'zmfilter.pl ' exited abnormally, exit status 9 zmdc.pl
2013-12-27 09:28:44.112440 zmdc 3679 INF 'zmfilter.pl' started at 13/12/27 09:28:44 zmdc.pl

2013-12-27 09:28:44.044840 zmdc 2959 INF Starting pending process, zmfilter.pl zmdc.pl

Obviously as a result my disc is filling up! Any ideas on how I should address this issue gratefully received!

Thanks
Andrew

I have the same issue, on Ubuntu 12.04.

I did the edit in /usr/bin/zmfilter.pl as shown in the corrected script example.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
use constant EVENT_PATH => ($Config{ZM_DIR_EVENTS}=~m|/|)?$Config{ZM_DIR_EVENTS}:($Config{ZM_PATH_WEB}.'/'.$Config{ZM_DIR_EVENTS});

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No change, the errors are still happening.

Hi, I had the same issue, not sure it is the same reason:
here is a way to try and debug:

run
manually on ssh and check if there are errors.

on my system, I had :
Can't locate MIME/Entity.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/share/perl/5.14.2 /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.14.2 /usr/local/share/perl/5.14.2 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.14 /usr/share/perl/5.14 /usr/local/lib/site_perl) at /usr/bin/zmfilter.pl line 104.
which if I undesrtands well means there are some missing perl extensions, or they are installed somewhere else than perl search path.

I've found it was in this package so Installed it:
and problem was solved

I ran the install you mention. Then I ran the filter script. This is what I got:

Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at /usr/bin/zmfilter.pl line 55.
Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at /usr/bin/zmfilter.pl line 55.
Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at /usr/bin/zmfilter.pl line 55.
Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at /usr/bin/zmfilter.pl line 55.
BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/zmfilter.pl line 55.


This is line 55 in the script:

use constant EVENT_PATH => ($Config{ZM_DIR_EVENTS}=~m|/|)?$Config{ZM_DIR_EVENTS}:($Config{ZM_PATH_WEB}.'/'.$Config{ZM_DIR_EVENTS});


Anyone have any ideas? I need this fixed in a week or so, or else I lose a contract

Pyroman,
Unless you have upgraded to 1.26.5 specifically for certain updates to the RTSP code, then I recommend you roll back to zoneminder 1.26.4. We will have these issues fixed for the 1.26.6 release. We also plan to start using Release Candidates to flesh out issues like this before it becomes a release.

Thanks,

Hi, I have the same issue on 1.26.5 and Ubuntu 13.04.

But additionally the problem is also on zmtrigger.pl as you can see on the log:

Every ten minutes this is repeated... and of course my disk is filled up soon...

Bye...

Ok, for now I will monitor my disk usage and purge events manually. I'm not doing anything with the filters at the moment anyway, except for the automatic purge when full. I can live with a little inconvenience while you guys are catching up on the bugs, as long as I know that they are being worked on

I can't find 1.26.4 to install following the easy way using Isaac Connor repository so I asume that I'll wait to 1.26.6 version.

you were talking in another post about that:
http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewto ... 30&t=21793

did you check the last posts ?

Hey everyone, we will hopefully get .6 out soon.

We have been fixing these problems and some other ones that have been around for years.

For anyone using my PPA, you might want to also add my master snapshot ppa at ppa:iconnor/zoneminder-master

Thank you!!!

This should be in the dependencies.
