I am trying to edit the motion detection settings in the Zone editor however the picture is missing thus I can not change my motion detection area
Images show everywhere else in the system - live stream, recorded stream and stills etc.
This worked on a previous setup
Any thoughts?
EDIT:
Suspect this is the problem:
'Can't open Zones1.jpg: Permission denied' in the log, not sure where that should be so I can change its permissions

Re: Picture missing in Zone editor
I experienced the same when ZoneMinder could not store images after I had changed the default location.
By default, ZoneMinder refers to 'images' folder within the '/usr/share/zoneminder/', which has a symbolic link to store the images in '/var/cache/zoneminder/events'.
This can be changed in 'Option > Paths > DIR_IMAGES - Directory where the images that the ZoneMinder client generates are stored'
The following permissions are required if an alternative location is specified.
drwxr-xr-x 5 www-data www-data 4096 May 26 18:17 events
drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data www-data 4096 May 30 10:37 images
drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data www-data 4096 May 29 21:04 temp
Similar applied to the 'events' and 'temp' locations.
images -> /var/cache/zoneminder/images
events -> /var/cache/zoneminder/events
temp -> /var/cache/zoneminder/temp
For example, I have relocated 'events' from the virtual hard drive hosting Ubuntu to '/media/raw-hd/zoneminder/events' on a physical mirror.
