daft question

[asantaga]

Hi there,

Daft question, when I run this (as sudo) , it simply comes back , no errors, nothing. and nothing appears to be running in the background.
Am I missing something? how do I debug perl?

Hi there, if you are manually running it (not via zmdc.pl) and its exiting, please do a tail -f /var/log/syslog to see what its outputting.

Hi there, apologies for not responding.. the trials of a 1yr old baby, work going nuts and.. well no other excuses!!!

Anyway, looking in the log files tonight I realised I hadnt installed Net::WebSocket::Server , so I went through installed those and all works fine!

thanks again.

One question, Ive installed it and it appears to be running correctly, I can log in, ask its version number but Im not receiving any events . On the server side it appears to be sending the event (cant login to the server at the moment) but the client doesnt receive them.. Im using Simple WebSocket Client Chrome Extension.. Any ideas?

I'll get the syslog to you later

Depends on how you are connecting to it Chrome Simple Websocket client doesn't work with WSS, so change $useSecure to 0 in zmeventserver.

Then launch simple web socket client, and first connect with the right auth - this involves:

• keep monitoring event server logs
• open WS URL ws://ip:port
• once open you need to send your auth information
  Paste this in the request text box:

{"event":"auth","data":{"user":"admin","password":"your password"}}

You will get a message saying

{"type":"","status":"Success","reason":"","version":"0.9","event":"auth"}

Now just force an alarm and you'll get a alarm message in the message box of your simplewebsocket client

{"status":"Success","events":[{"EventId":"27811","MonitorId":"1","Name":"Garage"}],"event":"alarm","type":""}
