Howdy and Merry Xmass to all.

Question...
All has been well with My ZoneMinder box for a few weeks now. I'm running ZM 1.34.22 on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS

Today when checking, I noticed logs full of errors, and also nothing gets recorded.
These errors are about Zmfilters 1 and 5 as follows ---->

2020-12-23 05:13:00 zmfilter_5 135006 ERR

I can't remember seeing this error before. I'm DEFINETELY NOT using cloud storage, all my recordings are going to local hard drives, I use 2 storages, default and 1Tb raid1
Any quick way to resolve this ? I have done only normal system updates, no changes to ZM configuration at all.

what gives ?

Thx in advance.

A quick way would be to install the module and see where that takes you.

Yeh, thx for Your answer.
I get bad rash and seizures from everything related to Amazon/M$/Google etc...
Since I DON'T use anything related to Amazon's services, I was thinking if there would be a way to solve this without installing that module, it's not used for anything anyways.

Sounds irrational.

If you don't want the quick way, you'll have to dig in and find the cause. I'd start with checking the storage definitions in that case. S3 protocol is a standard these days and not limited to AWS.

This code would only get executed if your storage area was set to be S3. So edit your storage type.

Thx M8! This did it !
Who knows how the hell it had changed to "S3FS", but now i changed it back to "local" and all is fine !
