Two tweaks must be applied.
1) (Web interface) Options, paths, and update PATH_ZMS from "/cgi-bin/nph-zms" to "/zoneminder/cgi-bin/nph-zms"
2) Must fix the pathing in apache to match the above configuration

Code: Select all

edit /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf
#ScriptAlias /zm/cgi-bin "/usr/lib/zoneminder/cgi-bin"
ScriptAlias /zoneminder/cgi-bin "/usr/lib/zoneminder/cgi-bin"

service apache2 restart
service zoneminder restart
...

Thank You very much.
Thease two tweaks helped me. But first i had to check that cgi-bin is working:
http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/diy-it ... he-server/ :

Configure Apache

A directive must be created so Apache knows about CGI — where its directories are located and what it can do. In some Apache configurations, this is done within the httpd.conf file. Because this is Ubuntu, we are going to add the directive to the /etc/apache/sites-available. Open that file with your favorite text editor and, before you add anything, search for this section:

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
<Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

If the above section does not exist, add it in the <Virtualhost *:80> section just above the line:

ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log

Save that file and be ready to restart Apache. To restart the server, issue the command:

sudo service apache2 restart

Test it out:

Now it's time to test this baby out. Let's create a file (call it test.pl), and the file's contents should be:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
print "Content-type: text/html\r\n\r\n";
print "Hello there!<br />\nJust testing .<br />\n";
for ($i=0; $i<10; $i++)
{
print $i."<br />";
}

Save that file in /usr/lib/cgi-bin and give it 755 permissions. Now open that file in your web browser (point the browser to http://IP_OF_SERVER/cgi-bin/test.pl where IP_OF_SERVER is the address of the server), and you should see the following:

Hello there!
Just testing .

I have install armbian (ubuntu 16.04) on orangepi zero, and zoneminder 1.30.4 (it installs mysql 7.0, so i had to correct paths from this guidance: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ubuntu_Serv ... e_easy_way). with usb webcam.
