[SOLVED] Fedora 20 spin LXDE + ZM 1.27: RTSP timed out

[craver84]

Hi guys,
I've just installed Fedora 20 spin LXDE with zoneminder following the wiki:

wget http://zmrepo.connortechnology.com/f/20 ... noarch.rpm
sudo yum install --nogpgcheck zmrepo-20-3.fc20.noarch.rpm
sudo yum install zoneminder
less /usr/share/doc/zoneminder/README.Fedora


I connect to an axis with this setting:
- RTSP
- RTP/RTSP/HTTP
- user:pass@axisip
- /mpeg4/media.amp

ZM connects to the camera and record
but I've got 2 problems, hope you can help me...


1) RTSP timed out
this cam goes down frequently (see the attachment for the log file)
and I get lots of error I can't understand, sorry

2) no stream
I can't get a stream neither from live view nor from recorded events (I can see single images)

thank you very much for your help.

this is the log

RTSP timed out should be resolved:
it was a network problem, I changed the switch and now it's ok

I still have a problem with live view
getStreamCmdResponse stream error: socket_sendto( /var/lib/zoneminder/sock/zms-172130s.sock ) failed: No such file or directory - checkStreamForErrors()
socket_sendto( /var/lib/zoneminder/sock/zms-172130s.sock ) failed: No such file or directory

If the backend is working properly and only live view is broken, then one of the most common causes to this issue is an http scriptalias problem.
Please describe in detail how you addressed the apache problem described in step #7 from the readme.

Even though it appears you got the RTSP method working with your cameras, note that you can generally expect to get the best results using ffmpg or libvlc methods for modern IP cameras. They have better RTSP support than the RTSP method.

hi knnniggett
you are right.
the problem was the file httpd.conf and zoneminder.conf,
I did a mistake, sorry.

now it's ok!
thank you very much!
