If you did a clean install then disregard the following:

My upgrade was fine Linux Mint 20.1 ZM 1.35.26~20210413091429-focal from previous version
also installed a kernel update

The problem is in the fresh installation..There is no problem in upgrading from previous version.

I have just run into this myself: I'm afraid its not clear to me how to apply the fix. Do I edit zm_create_sql.in and retry the install, or can I pick up the change via git somehow?
Thanks,

sudo su

add-apt-repository ppa:iconnor/zoneminder-master

apt update

apt -y install zoneminder

( Now you will see some error message ie Error: Process completed with exit code 100. )

Then go to the following Issac Connor's web link

https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminde ... e6c99192d0

You can see the corrected lines within the green color block .

Open the file at /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_create.sql

sudo gedit /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_create.sql

Delete the 793 line of the opened file zm_create.sql .

Then copy Issac Connor's fix at above link marked in green color block and paste at line 793 and save.

Then configure zoneminder and apache as usual.

Please refer the following link for get more details

But now:

1.35.26~20210417163214-focal

- db upgrade fails.
Ran zmupdate manually failed.
Got it to work with the suggested mysql work-around.

It is apparent that the Isaac Cooor's fix has already being included in the latest Zoneminder master 1.35.26~20210417163214-focal
Therefore it is not necessary to apply the fix manually

May be ok on fresh install, but upgrade fails now. At least for me.

Hi dougmccrary,

Even for a fresh install of the above version, ZM will not work unless you drop the zm database & re create
