@Pducharme has pushed a downgrade, so you can just pull the latest and you'll be back on 3.9.0.

My unifi video docker has just updated/downgraded and I'm back on 3.9.0 but now all my cameras are not connecting, unifi is reporting "Firmware Not Supported". All cams (G3-AF and G3 dome) are on 4.2.13 which is the latest available on the Unifi website.

 

Any ideas? Would my cameras have auto updated their firmware, do I need to downgrade the cameras?

If 3.9.2 was working for you, you could just re-upgrade to it. There is an issue on the github that has instruction for doing that.

If it wasn't, you'll need to manually downgrade your cameras. I had to do that after manually *upgrading* them

Any reason why the downgrade to 3.9.0? Not all of us were having issues. @Pducharme

We had no idea how many people were having issues and how many weren't. In the issue we're taking this problem on, I suggested that @Pducharme get tags working and then flip back to 3.9.2. That way everyone can upgrade and only those w/ issues can easily stay at 3.9.0 while we figure out wtf is going on.

Can you tell us about your setup that is working in https://github.com/pducharme/UniFi-Video-Controller/issues/56 ?

5.7.20 out now

 

https://community.ubnt.com/t5/UniFi-Beta-Blog/UniFi-5-7-20-Stable-Candidate-has-been-released/ba-p/2258831

so I load the Unifi Video docker, create my user then i just get invalid username and password when it asks me to login, i even tried the default ubnt/ubnt any ideas guys

I *just* ran through this flow on my own test container and it worked fine. Since you're not far along, maybe blow away your config and try again? Can you post your `docker run` command and maybe tell us about what you're running it on?

you now need to log into your cameras directly and upload the previous firmware once done the cameras will re-adopt without issue.

The fix for 3.9.2 is in and a pull request is up, it'd be reasonable to wait and just go to 3.9.2 and they'll be fine.

Hi. I recently purchased a ts453. I very new to running container station and docker files.. I have unifi ap and cameras.i have mange to install unifi controller in docker and is up and running. I wanted to also run unifi video in docker and found pducharms docker build.. I create the image in container station and upon running the image I get in the console permission denied.  I'm no stuck and don't understand the oermissions or know where to look.. any help be great as I spent weeks trying to make this work.

Looks like "container station" refers to something in QNAP. This is the unRAID forum. I don't know if anyone here can help you or not.

@Mellowevo8, make an issue on github and we'll try to help you. Please include as much detail as you can.

Last night I reset and downgraded my cameras to next to latest firmware. Ripped out the docker, cleaned out the cruft. Couldn't find an older version of the docker to install so I tried what was available. Upon install the docker re-upgraded my cameras and everything works... but still doesn't record. Is it reasonable to assume we can just wait on a software update for this to be fixed?

If the software is running and you see the cameras and their feeds, you should be able to record. What do you mean when you say it doesn't record? Do you set the cameras to always record? Record on motion?

Yes and yes.. Tried both. No recordings are showing up.

I assume if you live view the cameras, it works? Or the grid view? Have you checked the logs for errors? What are you passing in for data and video paths?

Yes the live view works fine.. and in grid view as well. Just used the default values for installing the app. I'm going to have to go through the logs. Busy day today with switches falling over at work. Will start with the error log and recording log unless anyone knows better

I think `server.log` is where I'd start.

I attached the last hundred lines. Trying to figure out what to make of it. The confusing thing is when I reset everything Friday night it actually did record me once while i was fixing it and I thought i was done. I may have to repeat the process. Checking it this morning.. it's graduated to recording a few things but not everything

 

serverlog.rtf

 

Edit: Just as a follow up I finally figured out that it didn't like being pointed at my cache drive for some reason. Didn't think there was enough space. Pointed the recorder to the share on my array and all seems to be working again. Also reverted back to 3.9.0 and the 2nd most recent camera firmware

Found logs

How do we know when 3.9.3 has been pushed to the repo and available for installation?

You can just `docker pull pducharme/unifi-video-controller` any time, if there is an update it'll get it. If there isn't, it won't.

You could also watch https://hub.docker.com/r/pducharme/unifi-video-controller/builds/ or https://github.com/pducharme/UniFi-Video-Controller/commits/release

I don't like to just blindly do a docker pull to look for new releases in case there is an issue. I will bookmark those pages though thanks!

I literally both use this for my unifi-video setup and maintain the docker image with pducharmes, you can pull at any time and it'll be working and stable. We even went a little further and moved to a "release" branch, so now it only gets updated when we do it manually. All the fixes and changes to into master first, only going to release after we've tested them. We also started tagging releases, so you can at any time add ":3.9.2" for example and get back to it. So for this 3.9.3 update, you're on ":latest". If it went wonky, you could just do the pull w/ ":3.9.2" at the end and go back (or w/ the last shittyness as an example, ":3.9.0".

Anyway, you should feel safe doing the pull and restarting. 90% of the time it'll be fine 100% of the time!
