Surveillance playback (.php) page suddenly unavailable. How to retrieve video recordings manually?
Hi, hope someone has help available. I have been using Readynas Surveillance for years without any issues. However suddenly without any reason (no changes made to software or NAS drive itself) th...
Hi xbmcgotham,
We found errors on the httpd_errors.log. It looks like something changed in September with your NAS configuration. It started to get these errors:
[Sat Sep 07 19:17:36 2019] [error] [client 192.168.50.134] PHP Notice: A session had already been started - ignoring session_start() in /opt/surveillance/web/utils.php on line 338, referer: http://192.168.50.42/surveillance/
[Sat Sep 07 19:17:36 2019] [error] [client 192.168.50.134] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant NUUO_BASE_FOLDER - assumed 'NUUO_BASE_FOLDER' in /opt/surveillance/web/nuuo_common.php on line 9, referer: http://192.168.50.42/surveillance/
We are not sure what happened on that date but that is when those errors started.
You can try restarting the NAS or re-installing the Surveillance add-on.

Hi JohnCM_S , Thanks alot for assisting together with your contacts.
I am not sure how to read these errors, meaning what they could be related to. I have no idea what changed. I do remember (a few months before the error date) installing and enabling Mysql server using the prepacked add-ons; MysqlOn, PHP and PhpMyadmin from https://rnxtras.com
But I think the playback.php page was still working than. Any other way narrowing done on the possible issue? I did a reinstall and restarted the NAS, but no change. This is strange as you would expect that the reinstall would reset surveillance data. Maybe I could remove the add-on again and manually remove the surveillance add-on installation folders? Are you able to give me specific folder locations which I have to delete to remove all traces of surveillance?
Have a good weekend.
Hi JohnCM_S
No rush, just wondering if you know :-)

Hi xbmcgotham,
I inquired this to L3 but they were not able to provide me the specific folder locations that you have to delete to remove all traces of Sureveillance. If you have a spare disk, one thing they suggested is to try removing the disks from the NAS (label them with their corresponding bay) then insert the spare disk to the NAS and install the Surveillance. Check if you will encounter the issue or not.
