Can't open Zones error msg

Post by algenon »

Hi all,
I am working slowly through version .15 and have most (I think) working, including capturing events. However I cannot get the Zones window working. I expect to see the same window as the camera with an overlay but all I get is a 'broken image' icon.
A look through the messages log shows the following, which seems to suggest that this is never going to happen.

I am using RH9 and Firebird as the browser, all set with no authentication.
A search of my system would suggest that there is no file called Zones.jpg. I have gone through all the things I can think of, so can someone point me in the right direction.

Kind regards ... Algenon (still waiting for his Axis 2100)

OK, now have the Zones.jpg image being generated (was a paths problem) and is responding to changes in the zones setups, However the image is still not being shown in the Zones window. The path is correct because if I change the path in the config dialog, it gives an error.

No apparent messages in the logs this time.

Any ideas?

Kind regards .... Algenon (slowly getting there)

seems I have paths going all over the place.
Have this part working now, but with different write and read paths. Don't know how I did that but I shall bed ZM down a bit more prior to going to ver .16.

Great programme Phillip.
