Does version 1.31.43 belong in iconner PPA zoneminder-master? I noticed while updating that v 1.31.43 is in the master branch and not storageareas.
Anyway installed and the web console does not work correctly. CSS seems missing. changing display style / skin /css has no effect.
although zmNinja works well and ZM seems to be streaming. Not sure why so I am mentioning the glitch.

I upgraded to this version today too, I'm also seeing this missing css issue.

I'm also getting email alerts of alerts from my oldest events, I keep 3 days of images, and as they are getting deleted it seems I'm getting an email alert be sent by the filter that I have setup that is supposed to only send on new movement. I'm thinking that the filter code doesn't realise that the event alert has already been sent?

I was looking into this a bit and found that the css files are there, they are just forbidden by apache config.

I added Require all granted to the <Directory> in the config for apache now the are able to be loaded.

Still not sure on all the past alerts that are coming through though.

same problem with me

I fixed it by removing the Alias /zm/cache statement from the web server config and I replaced it with a sym-link I made from the command line
from -> /var/cache/zoneminder/cache to -> /usr/share/zoneminder/www/cache

then the CSS was working again for the web console

how can i do this?

are you running Apache as the web server? If yes, open /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf and around line 10
comment out this line :
make sure that the copy in /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/zoneminder.conf is the same (should be a sym-link)

restart Apache

in a terminal enter ->
I am not sure if it will work for you or not. My setup that I fixed is running Hiawatha 10.8.1 as the web server and the configuration is different but it should have a similar effect in Apache.

Thank you ! it repair my css now can go to tabs , but still having problem with one camera that stops each moment

If you are running an Apache web server then it would be better to remove the sym-link and make sure the newer zoneminder.conf is active and has all the lines it needs for it to work.
So again open /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf and around line 10
un-comment the Alias and add the 2 lines
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
as it is below.
Restart the Apache web server.
This would be a better way to correct the css locating, the other way was a hack I can use in Puppy Linux when using the Hiawatha web server.
