Have installed ZoneMinder 1.36.31 on a fresh VM with Ubuntu 22.04 from the repo. I essentially followed this doc, and also looked at the wiki. hostname of the VM is "zoneminder", i.e. the VM is zoneminder.example.com. Following the default installation, Zoneminder is available on http://zoneminder.example.com/vm/.

I have created a filter to act on certain alarms. I am passing some arguments to the script called by the filter, e.g. %EP%, %EPI%, %EPI1%, %EPS%.

1st problem: The links created for these tokens follow the scheme http://zoneminder.example.com/zm.php?... - i.e. the /zm/ is missing. Did I miss a required configuration in ZoneMinder somewhere?

Code: Select all

[Tue Nov 15 18:37:55.511807 2022] [php:error] [pid 4466] [client 192.168.6.151:53925] script '/var/www/html/zm.php' not found or unable to stat

2nd problem: Even with /zm/ added manually, the links are not working. Apache's error log:

Code: Select all

[Tue Nov 15 19:03:03.998456 2022] [php:error] [pid 8898] [client 192.168.6.151:54381] script '/usr/share/zoneminder/www/zm.php' not found or unable to stat

And indeed, I cannot find a zm.php anywhere in the VM...

The apache config is the one from the repo:

Code: Select all

The url used in specified under Options -> Email.

The php file is called index.php. You shouldn't have to specify it.

With index.php it works. Without, "http://zoneminder.example.com/zm/?view= ... =1&eid=396" is passed to the script.
