Netcam image email throwing System.OutOfMemoryException

[Raptor]

Hello all,

ive been trying to get my system to send me an email of the front door cam image when the doorbell is pressed. i finally got all the bits together and it triggers but i get this error when i try to attach the image to the email.

any ideas?



Exception sending email via GMail (To:email@gmail.com, cc:, bcc:, Sub:door bell press at 10:19 AM Tuesday, May 10 2016, Attach:/Program Files/HomeSeer HS3/html/netcam/CurrentImage.jpg) = Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown.

im at a complete loss.

Thanks
Raptor

How exactly are you attempting to do this? What hardware are you running HS3 on? What version of HS3 are you running?

Its an older laptop some kind of core2duo , it seems to be able to grab an older image without issue, just not the currentimage.jpg....

This could be a case of the file is still in use when it's being attached. Try putting a delay in the event prior to attaching and see what happens.

I have not used Netcam for Homeseer 3 yet. I installed it on my HS3 Pro running in Linux.

It doesn't work such that I cannot test it. The help file is created in the correct directory.

The INI file looks fine.

Looks like it tried to write a file in the root drive using Windows nomenclature.

This is what it wrote to the root with no images.

HomeSeer\html\netcam\

It should be writing to:

HomeSeer/html/netcam/

Has anyone used this program on the Zee-2 or HS3 in Linux?

I tried up to 2 mins with no luck, the historic images can be added but not the current one.

i wonder if a script that copies it might help

How large is the file? It's saying it's out of memory, might be too large?

its only a few kb its a snapshot from the webcam.

Well that's not the problem then ...

So it DOES work on the historic images then?

Rupp might be onto something as the historic files are probably closed after they are created, but the current image file may be open. What happens if you copy the current image to another name and then run it using that new name (ie assuring the jpg file is closed)

well i was wrong,

it was up to 187 mb, no clue how that happened. any ideas?

i deleted the file and it seems to be sending now.
