ZoneMinder Forums

Hello, I installed ZoneMinder 1.36.12+dfsg1-1 from Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia Cinnamon 64-bit's Software Manager. I see no GUI, nothing in the Menu and no documentation how to run from Terminal? I've opened a browser and http://localhost/zm/ shows error: This page isn't working. localhost is currently...

Thank you for making clear that ZoneMinder is not an OS. Well, I think this post has been answered. I'll need to move on to how to install ZoneMinder on Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia Cinnamon 64-bit. https://forums.zoneminder.com/viewtopic.php?t=33122 The Linux Mint Software Manager installed: Name: zone...

Thanks, install's not so easy though.
If I understand correctly, ZM is an OS?
That means I can't install it as an app on a desktop and will need to run a VM right?

Hello, my generic security camera software won't control the PTZ as only the IE browser is accepted. If I install ZM, would ZM be able to control the PTZ please? Here's the specs if it helps: Model: IPG-7920PSS-AI Location: Browser -> log in to camera -> Remote Settings -> System Config -> Device In...

Hello, I'm installing ZoneMinder on Linux Mint 20.1. I was up to the guide https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Debian_10_Buster_with_Zoneminder_1.34.x_from_ZM_Repo step: Install Zoneminder sudo apt install zoneminder The following error occurred: root@linuxmint:/home/linuxmint# apt update Hit:1 http://mirro...

Thank you.
I guess I will have to try a temporary Internet connection to my hypervisor server.
It has a nice air gap from the Internet, so hopefully a new Wi-Fi NIC can be configured to state DOWN, after I install an Ubuntu or Debian OS on the hypervisor VM, then ZoneMinder.

My hypervisor with the vm running the Ubuntu server, which ZM will run on, has no Internet. This desktop has Internet, so I download iso files to this desktop, then scp over to the hypervisor. Is there a ZoneMinder.iso file available please? I tried the ppa repository, but this seems to be a .sh fil...

https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ubuntu_Serv ... der_1.34.x has an error which I cannot edit.
As an alternate you may use MySQL in lieu of MySQL.
Should read: As an alternate you may use MySQL in lieu of Mariadb.

Tried ZoneMinder back in 2012.
Trying again now with a new Security Camera.
1st thing is to install an Ubuntu server onto my Hypervisor server.
ZoneMinder install guide https://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/la ... -04-bionic only mentions 18.04?

Hello,
my camera often resets itself to the default position.
I then need to select the memory position to view the correct area.

I would like to find out why the camera resets itself.
Would something be in the logs?
Are Zoneminder log files in /var/log or some other path?

Hello, I was out and checked my security camera by logging in remotely in a browser with <public WAN IP>:<port number>. I then realised I can't see the recordings of movement in ZoneMinder. Is there a way to remotely access ZoneMinder to check for motion recordings? My thoughts were, instead of acce...

Hi, I need to delete 1000's of events. I tried /var/cache/zoneminder/events (not sure if this is the right folder/file to delete?) /usr/share/zoneminder/events (shows 2 folders named 1 and Security_camera (not sure if ok to delete these?))
