| + | |||
| + | ==== Auto-Upgrade Failure on Ubuntu ==== | ||
| + | Post-install script is at ''/var/lib/dpkg/info/zoneminder.postinst'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Video Playback in Browser not working ==== | ||
| + | ZoneMinder uses a CGI program called ''nph-zms'' as a vehicle for the browser to hook up to and update the video stream(s). If a message like this appears in the apache log: | ||
| + | <WRAP prewrap> | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | [Thu Aug 04 02:03:02.420973 2016] [:error] [pid 12461:tid 139862547818240] [client 192.168.0.220:53274] ERR [socket_sendto( /home/zm/tmp/zms-296737s.sock ) failed: No such file or directory], referer: http://192.168.0.11:8080/zm/index.php?view=watch&mid=1 | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | </WRAP> | ||
| + | ... this probably means that the ZoneMinder CGI program(s) can't be executed, due to either apache config, actual file locations, etc ... | ||
| + | * Make sure a CGI module is enabled for apache | ||
| + | * Make sure the apache config addresses directory setup for ZoneMinder's CGI programs/location | ||
| + | * Make sure the ZoneMinder CGI location is accessible inside the web site's space | ||
| + | * Make sure the ZoneMinder settings, under the "Paths" section, have the right path to the ''nph-zms'' program | ||
