Hello,

I was performing an upgrade of ZM to the 1.2x versions from an older 1.2x version i believe.

For somereason managment above wished that we upgrade, although ZM changelog didnt seem to give us a new feature or performance enhancement.

Anyway.. the upgrade went horribly, and I reinstalled form scratch.

For now, Im getting these errors using an Axis 204 Network Camera.

Code: Select all

Sep 23 18:10:36 sandbox2 zmc_m1[999]: ERR [Select timed out]

Any ideas, i was thinking MySQL Select Statement timed out.. but the db service looks fine.

and these cameras were working on your old machine.
What url are you using to connect?

the only thing i have read about (never used axims yet)
is the http 1.0
NETCAM_REGEXPS and plain authentication
The only thing i can suggest (assuming they were working before and its not a path issue) is to try these in the different combinations ensuring that you restart zm after a change like this

The select timed out error basically meants that ZM asked your camera for an image but never got one back. At least within the defined period which is a few seconds by default.

Are you able to fetch images from your cams manually using wget?
