V. 1.22.1 on Mandriva 2006

With debug turned on in zmpkg.pl this is from zmpkg.log

edit: On second thought this may be a zmfix problem. I'll get back to this later. Out of time for now.

Yes. Try running the command directly as well to see if runs manually.

It runs without returning an error, but does not seem to change the device perms

OK, nevermind.
Seems I had nonexistant mysql username and passwd in zm.conf

A little more attention to detail and all is well now.
