Subject: [Motion-user] Motion crashing after recent software update
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; Format="flowed"
Hello all,
It seems a recent software update may have broken motion on this
headless Raspberry Pi Zero W.
I noticed the following package updates:
? libcamera0.4:armhf (0.4.0+rpt20250127-3, automatic)
? rpicam-apps-lite:armhf (1.5.3-1, 1.6.0-1)
? libcamera-v4l2:armhf (0.3.2+rpt20241119-1, 0.4.0+rpt20250127-3)
? libcamera-dev:armhf (0.3.2+rpt20241119-1, 0.4.0+rpt20250127-3)
? libcamera-ipa:armhf (0.3.2+rpt20241119-1, 0.4.0+rpt20250127-3)
? libcamera-tools:armhf (0.3.2+rpt20241119-1, 0.4.0+rpt20250127-3)
OS: Raspbian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) armv6l
Host: Raspberry Pi Zero W Rev 1.1
Kernel: 6.6.74+rpt-rpi-v6
Motion: 4.7.0+git20240909-8d69cbf
I had originally built motion 4.7.0 from source. I went through that
process again, starting with a fresh clone of the repo, but that made no
difference.
Looks like motion is crashing. Motion's pid file is still present but
that pid is not running. Attached is a level 9 log from motion. The only
messages I see in syslog are these:
Feb 02 14:03:05 cam1 motion[3022]: [0:motion] [NTC] [ALL] conf_load:
Processing thread 0 - config file /home/jack/.motion/motion.conf
Feb 02 14:03:05 cam1 motion[3022]: [0:motion] [NTC] [ALL]
motion_startup: Logging to file (/home/jack/motion.log)
Wondering if anyone else has noticed this, or if someone may have a
suggestion.
Thanks in advance,
--

Attached is another log file. Not sure if I missed something with the
previous one, but note the "Permission denied" messages.
Also, I am able to capture images with rpicam-still and video with
rpicam-vid successfully, but when running these commands, I see the
following:
[0:14:44.064597744] [782] ERROR IPAModule ipa_module.cpp:171 Symbol
ipaModuleInfo not found
[0:14:44.064989743] [782] ERROR IPAModule ipa_module.cpp:291
v4l2-compat.so: IPA module has no valid info
