Can't get motion to run on Raspberry pi OS bookworm

[micksulley]

Did you read the guide?

Yes

What is the base version number of Motion being used?

4.5.x

What was the install method?

Installed via package tool

What is base architecture?

ARM-32bit

What is the distro being used?

Raspbian

Disto version number

Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)

Camera type(s) being used?

PI cam via libcamerify

Describe the issue/problem and steps to reproduce

When I start motion I get the error
ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libcamera/v4l2-compat.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored
Motion then appears to run, I can open the web page, but when I open camera1 it says "UNABLE TO OPEN VIDEO DEVICE"
This was installed from the Raspi distro but I have also tried downloading and installing bookworm_motion_4.6.0-1_arm64 and bookworm_motion_4.5.1-1_arm64 with similar results.
I have attached my config files (added.txt to get them loaded)
camera1.conf.txt
motion.conf.txt

motion.log

Motion log output at log_level 8

Log file was too big to paste here so attached.

I faced the same problem and got it solved by changes in the /boot/firmware/ config.txt. When you search in the forum of the raspberry pi you will find what to change in that file. something with start_x and gui....

I found a hit suggesting changing /boot/firmware/config.txt to dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
I have done that and rebooted and the problem still exists.
This is the screen output```

With the following config.txt I got it running on a RPi 3. Left out all comment lines.

dtparam=audio=on

start_x=1

display_auto_detect=1

max_framebuffers=2

disable_overscan=1

[cm4]
otg_mode=1

[all]

[pi4]
dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d
arm_boost=1

[all]
gpu_mem=128
enable_uart=1

This is a libcamera package/dependency problem and on my PI's it works without any modifications to the config.txt file.

Simply ensure that all the packages are installed as listed here i.e.

sudo apt-get install autoconf automake autopoint build-essential pkgconf libtool libzip-dev libjpeg-dev git libavformat-dev libavcodec-dev libavutil-dev libswscale-dev libavdevice-dev libwebp-dev gettext libmicrohttpd-dev libcamera-tools libcamera-dev libcamera-v4l2

and also make sure the rest of the system is up to date. i.e.

sudo apt update
sudo apt-dist-upgrade.

Making sure to repeat the above as needed multiple time as well as invoking any remove packages indicated by apt

That has fixed it, thank you.
I changed /boot/firmware/config.txt back to original and rebooted and it still works.
When I start I still get errors, can I just ignore them or should I do something to fix? This is what I see in the terminal
