My openhab.log is spitting out some error messages. And I cannot seem to get them fixed. Any help/pointers would be appreciated. First my openhab.log messages: ```php 2019-03-23 10:13:05.427 [WARN] [ing.ipcamera.handler.IpCameraHandler] - Cameras selected 'ONVIF media profile' is using encoding of H_264 and needs to be MJPEG to work with the new streaming features. 2019-03-23 10:13:07.436 [WARN] [ing.ipcamera.handler.IpCameraHandler] - Following NPE occured when trying to connect to the camera with ONVIF.java.lang.NullPointerException 2019-03-23 10:13:07.436 [ERROR] [ing.ipcamera.handler.IpCameraHandler] - Since an NPE occured when asking the camera about PTZ, the PTZ controls will not work.

How often do you get the error messages? ---

Well, Like 8 times a day, it differs. On different times and no ‘routine’. Sometimes it takes a couple of hours to generate the error and sometimes you get a few errors in a frame of 10 minutes.. Erratic… Any ideas? ---

Looking at the Things file you have server port 888 and and error is complaiing about port 88?😯 If that’s not the issue, I would set the Ipcamera log to DEBUG and see if that gives a better hint at the problem. ---

Thanks for creating a new thread as it looks like you have multiple issues. - As mentioned setup the camera to be able to use MJPEG streams. [http://foscam.us/forum/how-to-fetch-snapshots-and-mjpeg-stream-on-hd-cameras-t4328.html](http://foscam.us/forum/how-to-fetch-snapshots-and-mjpeg-stream-on-hd-cameras-t4328.html) Your camera should be able to do streaming direct but is most likely limited to doing only 4 streams at a time. - I used google to look up `java.net.SocketException: Permission denied` and a number of things to try are listed but first what are you running Openhab on and which Java? Do you have virus protection or a firewall running on it that could be blocking java applications? - The log is telling you how to fix the NPE error, change the onvif port to the wrong port to test, the only thing onvif is used for is PTZ. So if your camera does not have it then do this and the camera will connect faster. This occurs if a ONVIF method is not implemented in the cameras firmware or a compatiblity issue exists, try updating cameras firmware. ```auto ONVIF_PORT ``` - Some of the above errors could be caused by the NPE or some other error as the framework is reporting the handler for the camera has been shutdown/disposed. It may also get fixed by a tmp and cache clean, search this forum for more info. The lines stating the handler is not running concern me the most as not all the binding is running. Going into DEBUG log output should give more clues but try the above first. ---

Thank you for your reply. The system that openhab runs on is: - **Ubuntu 18.04** - **OpenHAB 2.4.0 - Release build** - **$ java -version** ```csv Java version "1.8.0_201 Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_201-b09) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.201-b09, mixed mode) ``` - **$ /usr/lib/jvm/zulu-8-amd64/bin/java -version** _(Java Zulu)_ ```csv openjdk version "1.8.0_202"` OpenJDK Runtime Environment (Zulu 8.36.0.1-CA-linux64) (build 1.8.0_202-b05) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (Zulu 8.36.0.1-CA-linux64) (build 25.202-b05, mixed mode) ``` - **MJPEG Streams** I have a MJPEG stream configured, it’s accessible via http URL. - **JAVA Error** See system config above.. no _anti-virus_ or _firewall_ present on the machine. - **NPE Error** Camera supports ONVIF, has the latest firmware and **PTZ** works in OpenHAB. (PTZ means pan/tilt/zoom I suppose, movement of camera?) I’ll look into the temp/cache stuff soon. Thanks for your help/answers. ---

1. Shutdown openhab. 2. rm %openhabDir%/cache/\* 3. rm %openhabDir%/tmp/\* 4. Start openhab. - Same error messages appear… ---

Can you post some debug log output when the camera connects with onvif please? Also try giving the wrong onvif port to see if it resolves some of the issues. ---

From your items file remove the text overlay and api access lines as Foscam does not have these channels. The rest looks fine. ---

The rest looks fine. I have rebooted the complet openhab system (Just in case) and started a log:tail. The output I will post below. I have not changed the text overlay/api access/onvif port yet. If still needed I will. I have removed all non-related stuff to ipcamera out of the log for clarity sake.

One thing that does not add up, in the DEBUG log it says there’s no MJPEG stream available. But when putting ```csv http://ipaddress:port/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=setSubStreamFormat&format=1&usr=XXX&pwd=XXX ``` into a browser I get the following returned: ```csv 0 ``` And when opening a browser with the following URL ```csv http://ipaddress:port/cgi-bin/CGIStream.cgi?cmd=GetMJStream&usr=XXX&pwd=XXX ``` I get a streaming video of the camera. So that doesn’t add up… ---

> [@onacvooe](#): > > One thing that does not add up, in the DEBUG log it says there’s no MJPEG stream available. I agree with your reasoning but I don’t have an answer, you would need to ask Foscam not me. The binding asks the camera via ONVIF and then reports in the log what the camera responds, you can try the opensource ONVIF device manager program to see how the camera responds in that program. The logs showed that PTZ is working fine and it is the ONVIF question asking for the RTSP url that causes an issue, why I do not know but it is good news as it does not matter and you still get PTZ control… The binding uses that exact URL you posted saying it works so I think I may have found the issue… Try these and I’m guessing number 1 will fix it: 1. Linux needs root permissions for using ports below 1024. Try another server port number in the higher range. 2. Add the following JVM option if 1 does not fix it: `-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true` 3. Is Openhab running as root on your machine? Create a user that is not actually root. ---

Ill try to see what I can do about a ONVIF manager. Thank you for all your help so far. PTZ is indeed working like it should be. I just made Java Zulu the standard java to see if that fixes the java error. But no luck. With server port number I gues you mean the server port of the IPCAMERA? (88 and 888)? Both need to be above 1024? Openhab is running as it’s own user. Not root. Thanks again! Ill try the three options you provided and report back. ---

In your things file you had this line SERVER\_PORT=888 Change it to something like SERVER\_PORT=5308 Or to turn off the streaming features make it SERVER\_PORT=-1 ---

- **Java error** Changing the server\_port above 1024 made the java error go away. - **MJPEG stream** I checked in the browser webpage of the foscam camera for any settings regarding the substream and it indeed is configured on 640x480 . But I cannot find MJPEG/H.264 stream options in the browser. Any thoughts on that? ---

You can ignore the log about no mjpeg streams it is only a warning. The binding will use the URL you said works for you so just trying using it now, the binding should now stream since the server now can use a port. ---

I changed the IPCAMERA log to INFO via the Karaf console. Now the log keeps calm. ‘Problem’ solved
