I suspect this is the problem where ZoneMinder uses the reserved word 
'Function' as a field name in the database.

I forget if it's MySQL or MariaDB that has the problem and exactly which 
versions but I do know older versions of both worked OK.

If you know MySQL you can test this by running the following query and 
if it fails retry by adding quote marks (") around Function and it 
should then work.

SELECT Id, Name, Type, Device, Host, Channel, Function, Enabled FROM 
Monitors;


If that is the problem then we can look at ways to fix this. Master 
already has a fix but fixes/31 and fixes/30 don't.
