My first install ever. I used the Conner ppa and I surprised myself by having no issues.
I can bring up the ZM GUI showing my one camera with red indicator, source is orange, and shows no video, "Monitoring is not active"
Error log says
Storage::disk_usage_percent: path /zm does not exist
Socket /run/zm/zms-866743s.sock does not exist. This file is created by zms, and since it does not exist, either zms did not run, or zms exited early. Please check your zms logs and ensure that CGI is enabled in apache and check that the PATH_ZMS is set correctly. Make sure that ZM is actually recording. If you are trying to view a live stream and the capture process (zmc) is not running then zms will exit. Please go to http://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/lat ... window-etc for more information.
Answer is change source>source>hostname to IP only, no http://
so pictures are working.
Now just two errors in log,
web_php 414885 ERR Path /zm does not exist. /usr/share/zoneminder/www/includes/Storage.php 112
web_php 414885 WAR Storage::disk_usage_percent: path /zm does not exist /usr/share/zoneminder/www/includes/Storage.php 74
where do I set the zm path?
Thanks,
Hans
Did you set a custom storage area or are you using the default? The default is at /var/cache/zoneminder/events. Do you see videos there? If you set a custom storage area, did you set it up properly? See: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Using_a_ded ... Hard_Drive
What is not working? You haven't specified an actual error outside of the logs.
fastest way to test streams: ffmpeg -i rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path ./output.mp4 (if terminal only) ffplay rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path (gui)
find paths on ispydb or in zm hcl
