Using zoneminder 1.26.5 under ubuntu 14.04 AMD64 The problem seems to be the socket is not created under /tmp/zm. Tested several solutions here and there, regarding cgi-bin directories and "ScriptAlias" but none worked.
Here's the error : May 3 23:12:37 mx2 zmc_dvideo0[2006]: INF [Monitor-1: 13000 - Capturing at 25.00 fps] May 3 23:12:39 mx2 web_php[1583]: ERR [socket_sendto( /tmp/zm/zms-425345s.sock ) failed: No such file or directory] May 3 23:12:39 mx2 web_php[1583]: ERR [getStreamCmdResponse stream error: socket_sendto( /tmp/zm/zms-425345s.sock ) failed: No such file or directory - checkStreamForErrors()] May 3 23:12:52 mx2 web_php[1584]: ERR [socket_sendto( /tmp/zm/zms-425345s.sock ) failed: No such file or directory] May 3 23:12:52 mx2 web_php[1584]: ERR [getStreamCmdResponse stream error: socket_sendto( /tmp/zm/zms-425345s.sock ) failed: No such file or directory - checkStreamForErrors()] My /etc/zm/apache.conf Alias /zm /usr/share/zoneminder <Directory /usr/share/zoneminder> php_flag register_globals off php_value short_open_tag 1 Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All <IfModule mod_dir.c> DirectoryIndex index.php </IfModule> </Directory> ScriptAlias /cgi-bin /usr/lib/cgi-bin <Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin"> Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch AllowOverride All # The code unfortunately uses short tags in many places php_value short_open_tag 1 </Directory> -- 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
