There seems to be a difference in the package installations
apt-get works great and all files are where they are supposed to be
motion startup says version 4.1.1
git clone https://github.com/Motion-Project/motion.git
works but compiling unaltered code even using
?prefix=/
will not start the service ->not found
motion.conf is way different
new to linux, but been programming for a long while. Old MS-DOS guy.
What file in the project controls where files are placed/renamed on installation
Is there a GUI for building these packages?
Using Raspbian 10 buster
thanks

Just Informative:
15fps - key frame interval 60 = Every 4 seconds that the camera encoder
does this.
These cameras aren't bad for the price, but better cameras probably would
not do this.

You can try pre-compiled debs: https://github.com/Motion-Project/motion/releases
Or build your own deb: https://github.com/Motion-Project/motion-packaging

If you are connecting from the same box to the same localhost address
using the same credentials - it should work
I could only suggest you to try to create a dedicated db user and make
a network trace on the loopback adapter to see what is the difference
in two connections
