ren0v0_: I don't have any cameras that do MP2L2. Any chance I can get access to yours, or you can give me debug logs?

thats one too many breaks

its only for my house not for a commercial use

yup same here - which is why I have no issues updating every day
I'm very sure the migration from 1.30 to 1.32 will be hard on many when its released
but its like vaccination. gotta take it, then pray the future is solid
ic0n
It really shouldn't be that complex. Just apache config needs to be updated.
simonpatapon
my system is all mixted up by my fault, semi .deb, semi from source....I'll just wait release
ic0n
not much is going to change between now and then.
asker
apache and its configs have been the single most pain point in forums so far. Now that people have it fixed, it needs updating and that will be confusing for several is my strong feeling
simonpatapon
but i like ZM very much
ic0n: did you add the option "hide archived" to event review?
asker
last week I had a simple task: My kids have been complaining that my home SSID bears my name, and is not reflective of everyone in the family, and I should change the SSID to something that reflects our family as a whole. Made sense to me. Did not think it through. I have over 20 devices, including cameras, that have hardcoded SSIDs and the moment I changed my existing SSID, they all went kaput - from alexa devices, to
thermostats, to cameras at various points. Spent a good part of a full day having to approach each one to fix. Sometimes simple changes cause hell.
and 20+ home wall switches too - all wifi enabled
ic0n
Perhaps more work can be done on my example apache config in terms of documentation and options so that people can just drop it in place.
never change your ssid
simonpatapon
i would have hide old essid and add another
xnxs
mine is "George"
asker
My new one is "TempleOfMusic" and my guest ssid is "TempleOfMusic_Groupie"
*laugh*
simonpatapon
i have lots of essid, event one on a Vlan free for guests
xnxs
upsidedownternet?
simonpatapon
wich is routed trough a VPN so guests can surf illegal stuff without my ISP to know
asker
in the mean time, I'm loving alexa integration. I now say "Alexa, drink time" and its sets the lights and plays Paolo Nutini at the same time.
simonpatapon
lol

I can't think of any recent changes that would cause that. We will need logs.

change may have been up to a week ago, not sure what log is going to be relevant though all i really i have is a crash with no real data behind it, give me a sec let me clear logs and fire back up with it broken
i roll back to 37badbfb17c374139479bac1ac806aa50de25246 to get it working, may be able to go a little newer though
zmdc.log is a lot of exited abnormally for zmfilter.pl zmaudit.pl and zma
and zmc
cant find anything in the logs indicating why they're exiting abnormally though
oh hmm maybe a mysql issue, 2018-06-27T15:28:09.141291Z 349 [Note] Aborted connection 349 to db: 'zm' user: 'zmuser' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets)
asker
I also had to do a sudo zmupdate.pl -f
there were config inconsistencies
when I updated 2 days ago
LiENUS
tried zmupdate already but didnt try -f
that got one camera up
other camera is in range of an unruly toddler, looks like she unplugged it, looks like that was it asker, thanks
asker
no problem
LiENUS
i guess -f forces it to rebuild the configuration even if it sees the version is the same? maybe time for a version bump then?
asker
I suppose
LiENUS
i think when the release comes out im gonna save all my archived events then wipe my install and reinstall, things seem to get broken more often than they should might be time for a fresh install
asker, you do zmninja right?
zmNinjaBot
hey asker - wake up, please. Someone asked about zmN
LiENUS
i guess thats a yes
asker
I do indeedy do
LiENUS
wanted to see if theres a solution for my setup but having trouble remembering what i use
might it be possible for zmninja to detect something other than zoneminder's login and pop up a web browser to continue authenticaton until it gets back to zoneminder?
not web browser but whatever the term for the embedded web thing is, i forget
asker
unfortunately not - there is no way to pass on a regular web browser credential to a webview inside an app
LiENUS
webview, pop up a webview and use it to continue auth
asker
nope webviews can't be used that way
jantman
I run all of my personal stuff using cert auth. I just give up on apps working with any of it.
asker
the only other way is for zmN to detect this page, do oauth and login, then load ZM, which I don't plan on supporting - also why I don't support recaptcha either
cert auth on the other hand...
I'd love to support
LiENUS
jantman, i use to use cert auth but hardware tokens get broken on everything too often
jantman
yeah. At the moment I don't even have a hardware token for my phone, just a cert sitting on the SD card
*shrug*
LiENUS
phone in theory youd just use an internal hardware token, though idk if chrome on android supports that
asker
jantman - do you have a test server with cert auth + ZM? I could fiddle and get zmN working if it is something you'd like to see
LiENUS
but chrome/firefox on the computer it gets broken too often, thats why i moved to oauth2, i get free hardware token support through googles 2fa and they keep f2f working on chrome for me
f2f? u2f*
i wish google would push cert auth as hard as they've pushed ssl, makes a decentralized auth system doable as well as all the fun of certs
jantman
asker: I only have my real one, but I could probably figure out how to get one set up...
do you do the Docker thing?
I actually just have a vanilla install of ZM on debian, but I run nginx in a docker container doing the cert auth + reverse proxy to ZM
asker
I don't actively use docker, but I can
jantman
when i get a chance I could probably get a simple example working
asker
cool
FWIW I'm not a server guy, so as long as a I get to point to a URL that asks me for cert auth and then shows up ZM with one camera so I know it works, I can try and make it work with zmN
jantman
but don't do it on my behalf... honestly the regular web UI is working fine for me
asker
ok - thats cool - if its worth your time, I'd love to experiment, but if its a pain, don't bother
jantman
the biggest pain is doing all of the setup for a self-signed CA to issue the certs
the actual nginx cert auth an reverse proxy side of things is pretty quick
asker
I've switched to letsencrypt - since both Safari and Chrome have now decided to say "this website is not secure" for all portals that use HTTPS that are not root validated
till a few months ago, proper certs had a green tick. Now its the opposite. All sites that don't have a red warning
