Fresh install of Bionic/LAMP/Zoneminder
error in syslog "no RTSP sources Found", also when using a2enmod cgi, at first it said no cgi conf found, now it says its enabled, but rtsp will not work.
http works and the rtsp feeds work in vlc.

i know inxi says its Desktop, but its ubuntu Server 18.04
Zoneminder 132.2

also found this in apache2 error log

More info, on monitor screen I get this message:
Broadcast Message for journald@xxxxxx (Mon 2018-11-12 22:46:33 PST) zmc 5122: WAR zmc_m5 Sequence in probation 2, out of sequence

Thanks to this info, https://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/la ... tml#remote I worked around it, instead of setting remote method to rtsp, set it to ffmpeg now it works, not a fix but at least its working.

Just did a fresh install of ZM 1.32.2 on Bionic. Did a test add of an old Linksys cam with rtsp and it worked.
Used this to install: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ubuntu_Serv ... e_easy_way

yep same one I used.
To be fair the rtsp feeds are being used on 130.4 32 bit server. I decided it was time to upgrade to a 64 bit server, The rtsp feeds have been working for years on the 130.4 server.
on the new server, everything else works fine montage, cycle, montage review, options, logs, http based feeds work fine, its just the rtsp feeds that will not work.

I experience the same issue trying to user RTSP on the new Installation (Ubuntu x64 18.04 Server / Lamp / Zoneminder 1.32). Also on the previous x86 Installation (Ubuntu Desktop 16.04) every cam worked with RTSP

On some newer cameras this works instead (Model IED-62F0026P0A):
Source Type: FFMPEG
Source Path: rtsp://USERNAME:PASSWORD@<IPADDRESS>:554/media/1/1/Profile1
Method: TCP
Options: /media/1/1

On some older cameras i use this work-around:
Source Type: Remote
Protocol: HTTP
Method: Simple
Hostname: USERNAME:PASSWORD@<IPADDRESS>
Port: 80
Path: /GetData.cgi?CH=1

...OR...

Source Type: Ffmpg
Source Path: rtsp://<IPADDRESS>:554/v1
Method: TCP

I think the "Remote" method to stream RTSP is being abandoned, though I have been able to still use it on some cameras. The "FFMPEG" method is working well for me using FOSCAM R2C cameras and rtsp
the example using a FOSCAM R2C set for low res (add your info):

General (tab)
Source Type = Ffmeg

Source (tab)
Source Path = rtsp://admin:passwd@192.168..0.19:88/videoMain
Method = TCP
Target colorspace = 32 bit
Capture Width = 320
Caputre Height = 240
