ZoneMinder stopped working after upgrade to 0.63

Configuration
1

I just upgraded from 0.61.1 to 0.63, but after this the ZoneMinder Component stopped working with the error shown below. I am running ZoneMinder 1.31.1 on Ubuntu 17 Server. I can still access ZM using Curl and ZMNinja, and it worked fine before the upgrade to .63. It seems like a login issue, but nothing in username/password changed since yesterday.

Error from HA Log:

There is nothing in the Release Notes for 0.63.1 about ZoneMinder, but I just upgraded and now ZoneMinder works again. :slight_smile:
