Hi folks,

Happy ZoneMinder user here, delurking for the first time. My problem is
that certain types of filters work just fine in adhoc mode, but when they are stored. I see the following in the log:

zmfilter[7774]: ERR [Can't execute filter 'select E.Id,E.MonitorId,M.Name as Moni
torName,M.DefaultRate,M.DefaultScale,E.Name,E.Cause,E.Notes,E.StartTime,unix_timestamp(E.StartTime) as
Time,E.Length,E.Frames,E.AlarmFrames,E.TotScore,E.AvgScore,E.MaxScore,E.Archived,E.Videoed,E.Uploaded
,E.Emailed,E.Messaged,E.Executed from Events as E inner join Monitors as M on M.Id = E.MonitorId where
not isnull(E.EndTime) and ( M.Name = 'Basement' and E.Cause = Motion ) and ( E.Emailed = 0 ) order by
E.StartTime desc limit 0, 10', ignoring: Unknown column 'Motion' in 'where clause']

I believe E.Cause = Motion
should be E.Cause = 'Motion'

Thanks,
Bob

Well I dusted off the old perl skills and read the DBI docs. and came up with with what I think is a fix for this issue. Warning: this has not been extensivly tested. Use at your own risk! I changed one line in zmfilter.pl. Below is a context diff of the change:

Code: Select all

                                foreach my $temp_value ( split( '/["\'\s]*?,["\'\s]*?/', $stripped_value ) )
                                {
                                        if ( $filter_terms{$attr_name} =~ /^Monitor/ )

                                        }
                                        push( @value_list, $value );
                                }

                                        {
!                                               $value = $dbh->quote($temp_value);
                                        }
                                        push( @value_list, $value );
                                }

Funny thing, as soon as I fixed this ZoneMinder immediately did just what I asked it to and sent out 350+ emails.

Thanks for posting this. I will fix it and put it in the main release.
