Trouble installing zm on debian.

Post by Birdman3131 »

https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Debian_12_B ... and_1.37.x
So I followed the guide here untill I got to the line "Old procedure retained for reference"

Google implies that I should see it at 127.0.0.1/zm but that brings up "The requested url was not found on this server".

What am I missing? Im not stuck on debian. This is a vm I just spun up. Ran Zone minder ages ago and wanted to give it a go again.

Does http://127.0.0.1 work? Without the /zm?

did you a2enconf zoneminder?

also, does /usr/share/zoneminder/www have stuff like index.php in it?

The script on that guide does a2enconf zoneminder

It has some stuff but the index/php is in a www subfolder

I will spin up a test machine and run the install to see if there are any bugs.

Stay tuned...

The install worked OK for me. I did not run it on a VM and did not try to access Zoneminder using a loopback (127.0.0.1) IP address.

So started going through the script line by line and you were correct on the a2enconf zoneminder part. It was returning a command not found.

Looking around I found this and used the command
su -
and then ran through and everything worked.
