Am I missing something here?
Please talk slowly and in single syllables as I only entered the world of Linux 6 days ago, so I am a newbie in the extreme....
This is as far as I got with the damn installer:

You don't need to run the upgrade script if your install 1.24.2 for the first time. Its for upgrading from previous versions of ZM.Fitch wrote:Since nobody has come up with an answer, I'll just wipe the system and put windows XP back on.
Since my business now has no security, I can no longer wait for an answer
That doesn't matter. It only applies if you are "Upgrading" from a previous verision. It doesn't matter if you install the 1.24.2 ten times. Its for applying updates to the SQL tables that have because the tables have been changed. It also wouldn't apply if you removed an older version of ZM, deleted the ZM database and re-installed 1.24.2Fitch wrote:By the time this screenshot was produced, I had already installed about 5 times previous.
So where is the initial install page?
BTW: Do you have MySQL installed and Running?
Sorry, I can't help you there, I use Gentoo. Perhaps if you post your question on a Mandrake forum you get a good answer.Fitch wrote:I have mysql server version 5.1 installed
The iso I used was a mandrake version, so obviously I picked the wrong cd image.
I can see lots of stuff for debian and even folders for ubuntu, but no iso,
What do I do with the deb files that are in the download folder?
Is there anybody out there?

ZoneMinder::Config - ZoneMinder configuration module.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use ZoneMinder::Config qw(:all);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The ZoneMinder::Config module is used to import the ZoneMinder configuration from the database. It will do this at compile time in a BEGIN block and require access to the zm.conf file either in the current directory or in its defined location in order to determine database access details, configuration from this file will also be included. If the :all or :config tags are used then this configuration is exported into the namespace of the calling program or module.
Once the configuration has been imported then configuration variables are defined as constants and can be accessed directory by name, e.g.
$lang = ZM_LANG_DEFAULT;
=head2 EXPORT
None by default.
The :constants tag will export the ZM_PID constant which details the location of the zm.pid file
The :config tag will export all configuration from the database as well as any from the zm.conf file
The :all tag will export all above symbols.

You have an issue with the MYSQL database:DBI connect('database=zm;host=localhost','zmuser',...) failed: Unknown database 'zm' at /usr/share/perl5/ZoneMinder/Config.pm line 89
1. is MySQL listening on 127.0.0.1 or what ever address you assigned to "localhost"? Perhaps you set up Mysql to listen on your ethernet IP address instead.
2. Can you log into MySQL? perhaps your MySQL config does permit you to login using root or whatever account your running the ZM install from.
It shouldn't need a password if your building/installing as root. I believe you need to add statement to your /etc/mysql/mysqlaccess.conf file to permit 'root' to login to mysql without a password prompt.Fitch wrote:I get no such file or directory when I type in ./configure --help
I cannot get into mysql in root or my own (brafferton) account.
I just says Access denied for user 'brafferton'@'localhost' (using password YES).
I'm a bit stuffed really...
you should have an entry like below in mysqlaccess.conf

I downloaded Zoneminder 1.23.3 onto the hard drive as 1.24 has no chance of building
There is no "mysqlaccess.conf" file,
but there is a "my.cnf" so I've added the lines to that file, thanks
It got a little further, and then it stopped because I didn't have gnutls/openssl.h
Apparently, I needed a PHP serialisation module, so I went off and got one.
I downloaded and compiled that, but obviously it's looking for another openssl.h 'cos it keeps stopping at the same place:
configure: error: zm requires gnutls/openssl.h - use ZM_SSL_LIB option to select openssl instead
So going around in circles I (just for a laugh) did apt-get install zoneminder and got about 6 or 7 lines before:
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
dpkg: error processing zoneminder (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
zoneminder
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
came up, which is about 200 lines less than previous attempts at ZM 1.24, so its one step forward and two steps back....
Now what?
I've managed to get Windows XP up and running again on the other partition, so at night I can switch the cameras back on, otherwise I would have ditched this days ago.
