FreeNAS Plugin 1.32.3 API Cake Issue

[n8klayko]

Hello, I am having an issue with my APIs not working correctly in the ZM FreeNAS plugin on 11.2 U5. Zoneminder has been running well in the web interface, but I cannot get the APIs working correctly. I've been trying all sorts of things to get ZMNinja working for live views, but it looks like I have an issue with CAKE. Using the instructions from ZMNinja and the app developer, I navigated to "http://server/zm/api/monitors.json", but get an error:

Code: Select all

The folks from ZMNinjatold me that this is an API issue, but I have no idea where to start to troubleshoot this. This does appear to be the issue causing the APIs to break. I could really use some assistance or direction with helping to troubleshoot my APIs and CAKE.


Respectfully,

Try this:
Assuming ZM is installed in

Code: Select all

/usr/share/zoneminder

Open up

Code: Select all

/usr/share/zoneminder/www/api/app/Config/core.php

(if ZM is installed elsewhere change path accordingly)

You will see somewhere, in that file (maybe around line 34, may change based on version), the following line:

Code: Select all

Configure::write('debug',<some value>)

If that "<some value>" is greater than 0, make it 0, and save. Then try the API again.
