I have an Ubuntu server with zoneminder installed. I only have one camera (cheap Logitech USB model) and it seems to be permanently idle.
I'm also getting this error repeatedly in the logs
06/06/2010 08:26:56.563783 zmwatch[28234].INF [Restarting capture daemon for main_room, shared memory not valid] 06/06/2010 08:26:56.812964 zmwatch[28234].INF ['zmc -d /dev/video0' starting at 10/06/06 08:26:56, pid = 29214] 06/06/2010 08:27:06.814486 zmwatch[28234].INF [Restarting capture daemon for main_room, shared memory not valid] 06/06/2010 08:27:07.054854 zmwatch[28234].INF ['zmc -d /dev/video0' starting at 10/06/06 08:27:07, pid = 29219]
I've already tried following the instructions in the FAQ for increasing shared memory, but that doesn't seem to work. What do I need to do to get this working?
Note: I have tested the camera with Linux via Cheese, and that works fine.
Can you post your Zoneminder camera config,
