Ubuntu 6.06 - Dapper

From ZoneMinder

Hi, I've just completed an installation of Zoneminder on Ubuntu dapper and thought some of you might be interested in the steps I did: http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6670&sid=5e992b469e119cb069842d103a5bef47

Remove the commenting out of the 'universe' repositories from /etc/apt/sources.list

Pre install tasks

---

sudo apt-get install make

sudo apt-get install apache2

sudo apt-get install php5

sudo apt-get install php5-mysql

sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-auth-mysql

sudo apt-get install mysql-server

sudo apt-get install g++

sudo apt-get install libdate-manip-perl

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient12-dev

sudo apt-get install libcurl3-openssl-dev

sudo apt-get install libjpeg-mmx-dev

sudo apt-get install liblwp-protocol-http-socketunix-perl

wget http://www2.zoneminder.com/downloads/ZoneMinder-1.22.2.tar.gz

tar -xvzf ZoneMinder-1.22.2.tar.gz

cd ./ZoneMinder-1.22.2

Installation Tasks

---

./configure --with-webdir=/var/www/zm --with-cgidir=/usr/lib/cgi-bin --with-webuser=www-data --with-webgroup=www-data

at this point I get errors from /usr/lib/libavformat.a, dc1394.o, off.o, dtsdec.o, oggvorbis.o, oggtheora.o, and libgsm.o

mysql mysql < db/zm_create.sql

mysql mysql

mysql> grant select,insert,update,delete on zm.* to 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'zmpass';

mysql> quit

mysqladmin reload

make install

---

Post Installation

---

This next step is meant to make Zoneminder start on boot up however, it doesn't do that yet. If anyone knows how to do this, could they modify these instructions.

cp ./ZoneMinder-1.22.2/scripts/zm /etc/init.d/zm

chmod +x /etc/init.d/zm

sudo update-rc.d zm defaults

---

There seem to be a few typos in the script that you copy into /etc/init.d.

sudo gedit /etc/init.d/zm

The first few lines should be changed to appear as so:

#!/bin/sh
# description: Control ZoneMinder as a Service
# chkconfig: 2345 99 00
# Source function library.
#. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

(note: I have not tried this part yet, I'm still working on it)

---

edit:

replace your start up script with this one by copying the one below.

#!/bin/sh
# description: Control ZoneMinder as a Service
# chkconfig: 2345 99 00
# Source function library.
#. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
