Getting thousands of these in syslog:

Mar 24 12:33:25 servername web_php[9074]: message repeated 4 times: [ ERR [Socket /run/zm/zms-962990s.sock does not exist.  This file is [....remainder deleted]
Mar 24 12:33:28 servername web_php[8731]: ERR [Socket /run/zm/zms-962990s.sock does not exist.

Its 5 cameras running on Ubuntu 18.04LTS on a new I7 multicore box w/ 16GB RAM. CPU utilization is running around 15%-25%, and the ZM console shows "Load: 1.93 storage DB:17/151 Storage: Default: 18% , 2TBDrive: 5% /dev/shm: 36% " All cameras are in nodect mode.

I dont know what to do to troubleshoot the problem. Any advice would be appreciated.

zms either isn't running due to apache misconfig or is bailing due to nodect mode... I suspect the former .

I seem to have found the problem, unchecked OPT_USE_LEGACY_API_AUTH and havent had the error since. The rrors were indeed coming from Apache.

I didnt believe it was a problem with Apache, because I havent touched it except to add a cert, it was straight outa the ZM installation process.

Regardless, it seems to be fixed. Thanks for the insight.
