Zoneminder 1.30.4 on Debian 9 (testing)

Post by bbunge »

I have tested this procedure on Debian 9 with Mariadb. MySQL should work as well but you may need to locate the my.cnf to make the required change.

You should be able to add the repository in the sources.list per the WIKI instructions then do an upgrade. Just stop Zoneminder first. Database should upgrade automatically.

I really don't want to add deb-multimedia to my sources. I have a clean Deb 9 install running Zoneminder 1.30.0 and Deb 9 will be release in a couple of weeks (https://www.debian.org/releases/). Adding it gave me all these changes and I don't want to destablize my system:

Need to get 24.3 MB of archives.
Can I just download the .deb and do a "dpkg -i zoneminder_xxx.deb"?

You can try but as you are running Zoneminder 1.30.0 from the sid unstable repository why are you concerned about making your system unstable? Or you can wait until Debian 9 is officially released which will likely require you to go to some other source to get an upgrade of Zoneminder. And installing from a downloaded .deb you will be faced to deal with unmet repositories. Your call...
