[Bug 1159361] Re: zoneminder not creating local unix sockets for streaming
I had run into this a few times previous and just for posterity ... for those seeing the failed authentication have you tried logging admin out and back in again? What worked for me was: 1. Enable OPT_USE_AUTH 2. Go into users tab and change admin password 3. at main page of GUI select 'admin' then click log out 4. log in with new credentials 5. Everything worked I then noticed it again when I came back to an already authenticated session (IOW didn't challenge me for a password for admin). The browser still showed everything fine and the cameras logged in etc but I got the socket errors in the logs again. All I had to do was foce log out admin and re login and everything was fine. ymmv -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1159361 Title: zoneminder not creating local unix sockets for streaming To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zoneminder/+bug/1159361/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have the same issue on Ubuntu 14.04 and on Centos 6.7. Streaming wasn't worked with authentication. But worked without it. The source of it was in different time on server side and on php.ini. I have synchronized it and it's working fine now.

I had the same problem as above and tried #8, this seemed to work for a while but then the errors reappeared in the log files.
