Post subject: | Zoneminder, how to set up and mobile app |
I have just got my first camera a D-Link DCS-2630L and it is a lovely camera however I can't get it to work with Zoneminder. I can use ONVIF on Windows and it finds the camera without issue, however my ZM install returns a error status of "2". Adding a monitor I can do that but no matter what settings I set I can't seem to get a picture. I am using LinHES as my Myth install. Googling I have seen settings for similar cameras, but nothing I can see actually tells me where to put these settings or how to change the camera to match what is required. Does anyone know where I can find a simple step by step or can tell me which configure files to change to get my camera working? Also once I get it up and running is there a mobile app that people suggest. |

Zoneminder is not the easiest to configure. You camera appears to be similar to other D-Link cameras. This should help: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/D-Link From looking on-line, it appears yours is similar to the DCS-2210 and DCS-2230. Use that as a starting point. You have to read the Zoneminder Wiki about how to configure a camera/monitor, this should be a good starting point: http://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/stable/userguide/definemonitor.html I was not aware, but an app is available for Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.html5clouds.zmview&hl=en I have not used the app so I cannot make any further comments. Best of luck to you. |

Thanks bobmyth, that has worked to some extent, except that when I watch the feed via the local network it deosn't seem to update as I think it should. I will take my problem across to the zoneminder forums and once I get the message up I will link it here for reference. Thanks all for your help and guidance. Cheers |

To update this thread, I posted on the Zoneminder forums and they were ZERO help. I have since built a CentOS7 box and installed Zoneminder and found I can get my camera to work. Can anyone suggest how I go about looking at the differences to find out why my clean install works and my LinHES version doesn't? Wanting to make this work so only have a single server running. |

What version of zoneminder are you using on the CentOS system? |

My LinHES system is running 1.30.2 and my CentOS box is running 1.30.4. From my further playing it only appears to be an issue in showing the camera, everything else appears to be working, but without a picture I cannot confirm. |

What is the output of the following command: Code: ldd /data/srv/httpd/cgi-bin/nph-zms | grep found

On my mythbox I get nothing just returns me to the command prompt. On my Zoneminder server I get Code: ldd: /data/srv/httpd/cgi-bin/nph-zms: No such file or directory

Sorry, I am running 1.30.0 so there may be some differences. Try this: Code: ldd $(locate cgi-bin/zms) | grep found This will help determine if all required shared libraries are installed. |

Well, it appears the installation is correct. My next suggestion would be to compare the logs of the working system and the non-working system. Maybe that will lead to some insights. |
