3.2-12-3.2 (or so; the most recent in wheezy which I believe ends in -3.2; I downgraded to avoid the bug)

Exits the daemon or setup mode after on_event_start script completes.

This makes it of limited utility for remote monitoring.

Hi Daniel,

I wonder if the fix for http://bugs.debian.org/697221 also helps you.
Could you please try the packages mentioned in the other bug?
Your config does not show anything mysql related, but it's worth a try
:)

Regards
Evgeni

Hello,

I recently took over maintenance for the package motion in Debian.

This bug is quite old and related to old version of motion. Since it
hasn't got any update since 2013, I have the sensation it can be closed.

I'll wait a little bit for a feedback before closing it.
