Error during setup of component zoneminder

caroku · October 29, 2020, 2:19am

Hi I’m a newbie. I’m running home assistant in a Docker container (network: HOST), and zoneminder in another container (networw: bridge) on the same machine. Zoneminder is working fine, but I can`t add the integration.

log:

My config file:

zoneminder:
  host: http://192.168.0.35:9080
  path: /zm/
  path_zms: /zm/cgi-bin/nph-zms

It’s all in my local network, so I`m not using authentication. I’ve tried without the port number and only adding the host setting.
ZMninja works ok in my PC and my android phone, so the API is working.
The DNS setting in the host is 1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1

Thanks for your help.

Upgraded to ha 117.4 and lost connection to zoneminder. Have the following error.

Connection error logging into ZoneMinder

Binary sensors working ie binary_sensor.front_door_camera_online
Bud switch and event not working

configuration.yaml as follows

- platform: zoneminder
    include_archived: true

I am running ubutu 18.04 and docker. Both zonminder and hassio are on the same machine. All was working prior to my upgrade to 117.

Thanks

i’ve tried with ssl true and verify ssl false and port 8443 wich is the port that I assigned in zoneminder docker, keep getting name does not resolve error and authentication error:

ConnectionError(e, request=request)
requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: HTTPConnectionPool(host='http', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /zm/api/host/login.json (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x7f613d144400>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno -2] Name does not resolve'))

The server (host) and the docker have 1.1.1.1 as DNS.

Please help.

Similar issue here.

This is my config, I tried those parameters that are currently commented out as well.

zoneminder:
  - host: !secret zm_host
    path: !secret zm_path
    # path_zms:
    # ssl: false
    # verify_ssl: false
    # username: !secret zm_username
    # password: !secret zm_password

# Informationen anzeigen
sensor:
  - platform: zoneminder
    include_archived: false

# Zwischen Modect und Monitor wechseln
switch:
  - platform: zoneminder
    command_on: Modect
    command_off: Monitor

I tested with AUTH en- and disabled within Zoneminder. Created a user and a server for Home Assistant

It does not make a difference whether authentication is turned on or off, whether there was this dedicated server or not. I get

Logger: zoneminder.zm
Source: /usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/zoneminder/zm.py:79
First occurred: 07:50:34 (1 occurrences)
Last logged: 07:50:34
Connection error logging into ZoneMinder

Both Home Assistant and ZoneMinder are on the same subnet in my local network. I can access ZoneMinder even from a different subnet / VLAN in my local network (my IOT runs on a different VLAN than my regular devices, but my phones and computers can access ZM without any issues; Home Assistant is even on the same subnet/VLAN as ZM and cannot connect to it).

I had this same issue while running zoneminder 1.32, I upgraded to 1.34 and that resolved the issue.

Hello!
I have solved this issue for me.
Problem was with Zoneminder API - it was broken on my Ubuntu 20lts.
To check the problem run request on your browser
http://<ZM-HOST>/zm/api/host/getVersion.json
ZM-HOST - hostname or IP address of your Zomeminder.
If ZM API is not working you will get 500 ERROR in your browser.
I’ve found in ZM forums it’s an issue of ZM - details here
To fix this issue run on ZM-HOST:
sudo apt install cakephp

To check ZM API is fine - run getVersion of ZM:
{"version":"1.34.26","apiversion":"2.0"}

Kind regards,
Alex
