Hi Carsten,
thank you very much for your comprehensive step by step procedure. It works like a charm

I had to go through a complete new install (again), but now ZoneMinder 1.36.33 is running on Suse Leap 15.4.

Again, thanks for sharing your know-how!

thanks for your directions, here is the content of the two log files (/var/log/apache2): access log file: 127.0.0.1 - - [30/May/2023:12:30:10 +0200] "GET /zm HTTP/1.1" 301 228 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:102.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/102.0" 127.0.0.1 - - [30...

thank you for your reply.

As I wrote above, I am not a DB expert, so I do not understand what to to with your kind advice.

If you could give more detailed steps please, I could move along your advice.

Thank you!

Thank you for your reply. I should have mentioned in my initial post that the orders in konsole are made as su, sorry for that. So, if I add sudo sudo mysql -u zmuser -p zm Enter password: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'zmuser'@'localhost' (using password: YES) it is the same result. An...

I am not the greatest DB user, but
maybe that helps to set me up with a solution?

Thanks!

Hi, I just updated my machine from suse leap 15.2 to 15.4. The update also included an update of zoneminder from 1.34 to 1.36.33. The video streams in vlc of my cameras are running normally, just like before the update. systemctl status zm.service reveals: systemctl status zm.service ● zm.service - ...

Hi there, I have recently updated my 1.30 to 1.32 with SuSE Leap 15.1 - installation went smooth (ffmpeg package was a bit resistant initially, but worked finally). To save space on my NAS, I have set my cameras to 8 bit (black&white, or "no colour"). Stored images on my NAS are also b...

Hi,
thanks for your advice. I have to admit that I gave up setting up cifs as a protocol. Instead, I switched to nfs - and thus I was successful in chown the events and images folder on my NAS system to wwwrun.
So: it works!
thanks again,
Knut

Hello, i could successfully install 1.30.4 on a new install of Suse Leap 15. Both ffmpeg and vlc protocols produce video streams from my camera. Now I wanted to symlink events and images to a directory on my NAS. Following the directions in https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Using_a_dedicated_Hard_Drive di...

Hello, I have setup a brand new machine with Suse Leap 15 and intend to run Zoneminder on it. So I ran the instructions given here: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Installing_using_ZoneMinder_RPMs_for_SuSE I installed the repositories and also the python script python3-zm_database_init - A script for Zo...

Thanks for your message. Yes, further help is needed (unfortunately). I shall contact Monex directly.
Best,

Fedora is now working with ZM; nevertheless I would be interested in getting ZM up and running (ffmpeg) with SuSE Leap 42

After a few more unsuccessful tries with openSuse, I have finally decided to have Fedora installed to start over from scratch. I'll keep you posted on my progress.
