Any ideas what could be causing this or how to correct?

[Simpler]

This is only happening if I'm watching a feed live. For example, with the Montage view up or the Watch view up.

[Simpler]

This problem started with "nightly-1224" on July 12th with commit bdb0768dfe52034d1e6926fe6c897e6b9b6283b3
and occurs in every nightly after that.

[iconnor]

Is this with zmNinja? It has been known to ignore the StreamImageReplayBuffer setting.

You may want to move that path to a tmpfs for performance...

Will do some testing. It seems to be trying multiple times to write that jpeg, but the #'s should be increasing... weird.

[Simpler]

zmNinja is not installed. Where should I change the directory that it's writing to?

[iconnor]

Look into ZM_PATH_SWAP in conf files in /etc/zm/conf.d.

The latest build should fix the Error.

[Simpler]

Thanks. Yes. It's fixed in last night's build "nightly-1236".

In the docker container: zoneminder-containers/zoneminder-base, I found the ZM_PATH_SWAP variable in the following file:

Code: Select all

/zoneminder/defaultconfig/conf.d/01-system-paths.conf/01-system-paths.conf

Checking for tmpfs usage:

Code: Select all

I think I'll let the maintainers of this container handle moving this to a tmpfs as I'm not sure how to automate this.

Thanks again
