Hi everybody.
My system is opensuse Leap 42.3 following this guide
https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Installing_ ... s_for_SuSE
My problem is that I can not see streaming video.

Code: Select all

getStreamCmdResponse stream error: Socket does not exist. This file is created by zms, and since it does not exist, either zms did not run, or zms exited early. Please check your zms logs and ensure that CGI is enabled in apache and check that the PATH_ZMS is set correctly. Make sure that ZM is actually recording. If you are trying to view a live stream and the capture process (zmc) is not running then zms will exit. Please go to http://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#why-can-t-i-see-streamed-images-when-i-can-see-stills-in-the-zone-window-etc for more information. - checkStreamForErrors()

I tried to point the VLC video player directly to the camera's address
rtsp://admin:admin@ipaddress:554/11
and everything works fine thus I guess it's not due to lack of ffmpeg.
Note: the same ipcamera on Debian 9.1 distro works fine thus I guess it's no ipcamera problem.
I am try on OpenSuse 13.2, Leap 42.2 but always the same trouble.
I am going crazy
Can you help me step by step what I do ?
Thanks a lot

Find the error_log file for Apache -- usually in something like

/var/log/apache or /var/log/httpd

and see what it says when you try to open a camera viewer.

The #1 problem with this is that Apache, ZM's PATHS config, and the filesystem don't all agree on where nph-zms lives.

Please note sometimes also this error appears

Code: Select all

Can't find codec for video stream from rtsp://admin:admin@192.168.1.203:554/12]

This is strange because with VLC I am able to watch video streaming. Does VLC use the same codec?
What do you mean ?

The #1 problem with this is that Apache, ZM's PATHS config, and the filesystem don't all agree on where nph-zms lives.

Can you explain better where I check or where I wrong?
I love OpenSuse and I don't want change my best distro linux for my survillance server
Thanks in advance

This is important and should be fixed first:

Code: Select all

PHP Fatal error:  Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 38 bytes) in /srv/www/htdocs/zm/i$

The memory_limit parm in your php.ini is set too low.
For reference, mine is set to 1024M, but I do a lot of other stuff in addition to zoneminder so yours doesn't need to be that high.

Regarding this error:

Code: Select all

2017-09-29 12:58:28.247506 zmc_m1[2987].FAT-zm_ffmpeg_camera.cpp/316 [Can't find codec for video stream from rtsp://admin:admin@192.168.1.203:554/12]

If this happens consistently, this means the particular version of ffmpeg on your system does not understand the incoming stream. Even though it is likely an h264 stream, manufacturers use lots of different codecs which make the stream unique.... so much for standards.

The two ways I can think of to address this are:
- use a different library. In your case, that means switching to the libvlc source type
- get a new version of ffmpeg installed (Not as easy as it sounds because it may require you to rebuild zoneminder against this newer ffmpeg)

The OpenSuse documentation and packages in our wiki are maintined by a user named monex. I always prefer to get him involved with OpenSuse related issues, because my knowledge of this distro is limited.

Hi knnniggett.
Your suggestions have solved the problem !!!
The first step I increased the memory allocation in php.ini, the second step was change to libvlc and all works fine!
Many many Thanks
