Reinstall Zoneminder

Post by pd2eds »

Hello,
Today my PC crashed, and I installed Linux (ubuntu 22.04) again.
Zoneminder was installed on this PC and I want to put it back on.
Now I'm running into the problem that this doesn't work.
I've been working all day and have tried different ways to get zoneminder on.
How to get zoneminder on Ubuntu 22.04
And how do I remove zoneminder properly before reinstalling it?
hopefully somebody can help me.

You don't say how you reinstalled Ubuntu, but unless you did it other than the usual, you'll need to reinstall LAMP and then ZM.

I first reinstalled Linux (ubuntu 22.04) on the PC, and then tried to put zm on it.
I first did this via the explanation on the zm site.
This didn't work for me.
Then I started looking for alternatives. I came across several ideas, but this didn't work either.
Can't get in touch via localhost/zm.
I see that I must first install LAMP and then ZM
What is LAMP ???

You've already got the "L" in the forum of Ubuntu ;)

1.34 has not been supported for years. Use 1.36.

Sorry, but I really can't figure out how to install zoneminder.
This site https://blog.programster.org/ubuntu-22- ... zoneminder doesn't work either.
Same error message here too.

ubuntu jammy Release
404 Not Found [IP: 2620:2d:4000:1::81 443]

I have a Foscam camera, and the Foscam software only runs on Windows.
That's why I run Zoneminder.
It run well until the PC stopped working.

Could it be that zm doesn't work with Ubuntu 22.04??

What now ??
Or another camera software??

Ubuntu 22.04 and zm 1.36.34 run fine together.

Here's a good guide to do LAMP:

https://phoenixnap.com/kb/how-to-install-lamp-in-ubuntu

Once that's done, do: ( Don't worry about the boldface warning at the top, you'll be getting 1.34.36. )

https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ubuntu_Serv ... der_1.36.x

And zm should fly...
