Template: motion/moved_conf_dir Type: note Description: Location of Motion's config files has changed The default location of Motion's configuration files has moved from /etc/ to /etc/motion/. So if you already have a motion.conf in /etc/ from a previous installation of Motion, you should move this to /etc/motion/ in order for it to take effect whenever Motion is used. . The same thing goes for any thread*.conf files you may have. You should move these to /etc/motion/ as well (in this case, also remember to update the path to the thread*.conf files inside motion.conf).
