    I just now noticed the '+' sign next to the permissions.  This means you have extended permissions on these folders.  From what I understand this is additional to the Linux permissions.  I am not enough of a Linux guru to understand what that means, but I suspect that is your issue.  What did you do to set the extended permissions?  Did you set some extended permissions with Windows?  Maybe a Linux expert can chime in here.

    I did set some permissions with WinSCP a long time ago; not related to Zoneminder though but it may have had an unintended consequence...

     

    The issue is currently fixed.  I did some things to remove extended permissions and I also updated the docker since I noticed the option was available.  Not sure what exactly fixed it, the update or my removing of extended permissions.

    Go into the docker again and do this command:

    
    ls -l /var/cache/zoneminder

    Show the results.  See if the owner was changed.  The issue is with the ownership of the folder, not the permissions as I said earlier.

     

    I think you have an issue with the permissions and/or ownership on your appdata share.  Do you have any other dockers running?  Any issues with them?

    Looks like owner was changed.

     

    I have HomeAssistant running with no issues.  That's the only other active one running.

    The /usr/share/zoneminder is inside the docker.  It is not user configurable.  There are some symlinks in that folder to the appdata folder.  I suspect that your appdata folder has an issue and the symlinks won't work.

     

    Go to a command line and enter this command:

    
    ls -l /mnt/user/appdata/Zoneminder/

    Show the output.

    Thanks for helping me troubleshoot this.  Here is what I received.

    Did you change any of the default settings?  Is your docker.img full?  Set the advanced switch to on and be sure to delete any orphaned docker images.

     

    I didn't change any settings.  My docker.img is not full and there are no orphaned docker images. 

     

    Should I have a directory /usr/share/zoneminder in mystem?  If I am supposed to, I currently do not.

    Yes. They are correct.  Delete the docker and the 'appdata/Zoneminder' folder and start over.  The defaults should work just fine.

     

    I deleted the docker and 'appdata/Zoneminder' folder and did another fresh installation.  I'm getting the same errors in my log over and over.

     

    web_php  8492 ERR Cannot write to content dirs('events','images').  Check that these exist and are owned by the web account user /usr/share/zoneminder/www/index.php 159

    Use the default settings.  Your path '/usr/share/appdata/zoneminder/www/' does not make sense and doesn't exist.

     

    The default settings are:

    Appdata Config Path: /mnt/user/cache/appdata/Zoneminder

    Data path: /mnt/user/cache/appdata/Zoneminder/data

     

    Use these settings.  If you don't have a cache drive, user /mnt/user/appdata...

     

    I haven't changed any settings.  Those errors were generated from a default setting installation. 

     

    I looked at (didn't change) my zm.conf file and saw these paths which match the errors I'm receiving.  Are these correct?

     

    # Path to installed data directory, used mostly for finding DB upgrade scripts
    ZM_PATH_DATA=/usr/share/zoneminder
     
    # Path to ZoneMinder web files
    ZM_PATH_WEB=/usr/share/zoneminder/www

     

     

     

  7. I deleted my old docker and did a fresh installation.  I am getting these errors in my log upon startup.  Any ideas?  Should this path be /usr/share/appdata/zoneminder/www/?

    Looks like issue with 5.1.20 extension pack.  I see a brief question something like do I agree to these terms or whatever with a y/n? along the bottom of the GUI before a message saying install failed.  Nothing in log to clue other than failed.

    
    Apr 29 23:25:05 Tower rc.virtualbox[14283]: Installing Virtualbox Extension package (v5.1.20)...
    Apr 29 23:25:07 Tower rc.virtualbox[14354]: Installation of Virtualbox Extension package failed

    Edit: Confirmed it is a license accept prompt preventing it from installing.  If I run '/opt/VirtualBox/VBoxManage extpack install /boot/config/plugins/virtualbox/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-5.1.20.vbox-extpack' and accept the license agreement it will install.

     

     

    Thank you for this!  Very helpful.  I have to reinstall the extpack every time my server restarts.  Any idea how to prevent that?
