Edit: Ok, I figured out that if I changed the 1.1 at the end of this URL to a 2, that would download version 2. Why not edit the Watchdog webpage to add a direct link to version 2?

Flash: Are you running Watchdog V2? Thanks in advance. Jim

No. I downloaded it and burned it to a DVD+RW but it refused to boot or something, I forget what. I gave up because I don't have a camera any more.

Hushpuppy hasn't been to the forum for a long, long time. I think you're wasting your time unless someone will take it up where hushpuppy left it.

Actually i have

, posted a question yesterday, messed it up somehow, then it got deleted.

To answer the Op's question, yes, i intend an updated version, it will be puppy based.

My recent time has been spent moving home and developing some EPOS software in flash, i now have this and watchdog running off the same live CD, but it's only used by my company internally.

I'm about to start developing a new watchdog system, but for various reasons i prefer it to be debian based, therefore am about to post a new message about debian.

Is there anyone actually using the original watchdog, if so, do you have any problems with it ?.

Now made a new post

Version 2 will be Debian based, please use version 1.1 until then, i will correct the web page tonight.

I can't recall any issues I had with the original version other than it not identifying my capture card correctly (which was more of an issue with that kernel I guess), but I would hope that a new version would use the latest zoneminder and support all of it's functionality, including the stuff that requires ffmpeg (like swf streaming). I'll try some tests with your old version this week and see if there are any other things that didn't quite work for me.

Anything else I can do to help with this, please let me know.

Thanks!
Michael

I had been trying to get ZoneMinder working on Mandriva prior to you releasing Watchdog.
I eagerly tried Watchdog 1.1 and, after overcoming some minor glitches, got it working OK. (I cant remember what the glitches were)
In the meantime I had bought a 4channel DVR and cameras, and was in the midst of setting that up.
That is the system that I am running now, but am more than just a little interested in a new Watchdog.

I'll be following this with interest.

BTW, I have had a play with SliTaz previously and it seems to have great potential.

I burnt a Live CD from the download. The BTTV card (pinnacle 50i) was detected and I could find ZM working. But the same does not when I install into the harddisk and try to use ZM. I tried setting directory rights to the apache2/images folder but still not able to get it. Can somebody help

muggins · #30 Post by **muggins** » Tue 02 Sep 2008, 12:04

sureshsarat,

I've never used the app myself, but until someone knowledgeable comes along with an answer, what response do you get if you try running zoneminder from the commandline?

sureshsarat · #31 Post by **sureshsarat** » Tue 02 Sep 2008, 14:41

ZM Works when booting from LiveCD (watchdog). Whereas when I installed the same on to hard disk (using unversal installer. I first created a seperate ext3 partition and swap partition, then installed. Also installed grub loader since even xp exists). when I checked messages I saw that the shared memory being reported as file does not exist and also shared memory invalid. Latter I even tried using echo to increase the values in shmall and shmmax to no use. Though the sysctl file in proc/sys/kernel has higher values, the shmax and shmall has lower values. As seen elsewhere in this forum, I also changed permission for the apache2/.. / images directory.
CAN SOME ONE PLS CLARIFY

Hi I am relatively new to Linux (very impressed with the helpful communities and the performance and security of Linux), having just replaced a couple of ageing XP machines.

I have another XP machine which is currently running Pico2000 and I am really keen to replace this with a Linux based CCTV system. Watchdog looks like a really good option.

I have downloaded Watchdog v2 from Burgerbar and when run as a LiveCD I also am stuck at the "user@debian:$".

Please could anyone advise how to activate Watchdog from here? I have also looked for readme and faq and have been unable to locate anything related to this.

Really appreciate your help, many thanks.

Well, since my last post I haven't given up on ZoneMinder and have now been able to get this up and running (I must say ZoneMinder is extremely capable).

How?
well I had to give up on Puppy/ Watchdog as i couldn't sort the earlier problem. On some more searching around I found some great install notes for Debian 5.

Please see http://www.rmacd.com/howto/zoneminder-d ... nstall.php (thanks Ronald MacDonald for really clear notes).

Just what I was looking for. I hope this helps others to get ZoneMinder running. Shame it didn't work out on puppy/ Watchdog this time.

I am putting what I believe to be watch dog 2 on drop box. Will add the link when the upload is done. I will leave it up about a week.

I also have something called warywatcher511. I am not sure of the difference.

IIRC the original watchdog v1 was based on Puppy-2.16
watchdog v2 is based on Debian (i don't think i ever got that to work)
and Warywatcher511 (which i put together) is based on Wary-5.11
