1st post, but very long time linux user.

I have a fresh install on Ubuntu Server 18.04.1 on an Intel NUC. So fresh it was installed today and I have only added a couple of packages.

The purpose of this machine is to run ZoneMinder but I am having problems. I have been following the script here: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ubuntu_Serv ... e_easy_way

The trouble is, when I get to

Code: Select all

add-apt-repository ppa:iconnor/zoneminder
(or when I try apt-update any time after that I get this:

Code: Select all

E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/iconnor/zoneminder/ubuntu bionic Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
I then can't install zoneminder. Any ideas?

Same thing, maybe try to use ppa:iconnor/zoneminder-master.

Thanks, that worked - I was a bit nervous about going to master as I want it to be above all stable. It certainly installed :)

Same problem, but ppa:iconnor/zoneminder-master didn't work for me;

rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* didthe trick. Maybe because I upgraded form ubuntu 16.04 with a previous version of ZM
