<p>Defaye: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/httpd.html see config points 1-4; conf-enabled points to conf-available points to zm.</p> <hr /> <div>Zoneminder 1.26.5-1 on Ubuntu 14.04 64 BIT and 32 BIT<br /> <br /> Note: This procedure is what I got to work after doing an upgrade from Ubuntu 12.04 with ZM 1.25.0 to Ubuntu 14.04 with the Ubuntu ZM package version 1.26.5. I compared the differences in the /etc/apache2 directory&#039;s and the only difference I could find was the successful setup had a zoneminder.conf in /etc/apache2/conf.d. That and enabling the CGI got ZM to work. This was modified on 20APR14 to use a second symbolic link instead of a zoneminder.conf file. Granted, there may be other ways to do this and I welcome input on the ZM forum. <br /> <br /> <br /> Install Ubuntu Server<br /> <br /> <br /> Install Basic Server (if you used the mini.iso), OpenSSH Server, and LAMP Server (LAMP installs Apache2, PHP, and MySQL server)<br /> <br /> Log in then become root:<br /> <br /> sudo su<br /> <br /> apt-get update<br /> apt-get upgrade<br /> apt-get dist-upgrade<br /> <br /> <br /> Optional: Set static IP address<br /> <br /> <br /> nano /etc/network/interfaces<br /> <br /> Make changes similar to this:<br /> <br /> auto eth0<br /> iface eth0 inet static<br /> address 192.168.1.10<br /> netmask 255.255.255.0<br /> gateway 192.168.1.1<br /> dns-nameservers 192.168.1.1<br /> <br /> Note: for Ubuntu 14.04 the resolv.conf is dynamically assigned.<br /> The &quot;dns-servers&quot; entry in the interfaces file will set the DNS<br /> Multiple DNS server entries can be used. <br /> <br /> Reboot server<br /> <br /> <br /> Install Zoneminder<br /> <br /> <br /> apt-get install zoneminder<br /> <br /> Add delay to allow MySQL to start before Zoneminder<br /> <br /> <br /> nano /etc/init.d/zoneminder<br /> <br /> Add sleep 15 as shown:<br /> <br /> start() {<br /> sleep 15<br /> echo -n &quot;Starting $prog: &quot;<br /> <br /> Ctrl+o Enter to save<br /> <br /> CTRL+x to exit<br /> <br /> Create a directory in apache2<br /> <br /> mkdir /etc/apache2/conf.d<br /> <br /> Create two symbolic links<br /> <br /> ln -s /etc/zm/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf<br /> <br /> ln -s /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/zoneminder.conf<br /> <br /> CGI is not enabled in Ubuntu 14.04 by default. Enable it this way: <br /> <br /> a2enmod cgi<br /> <br /> Create a new user<br /> <br /> adduser www-data video<br /> <br /> Restart Apache<br /> <br /> /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload <br /> <br /> or<br /> <br /> service apache2 restart<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Install Cambozola<br /> <br /> <br /> cd /usr/src &amp;&amp; wget http://www.andywilcock.com/code/cambozola/cambozola-latest.tar.gz<br /> <br /> tar -xzvf cambozola-latest.tar.gz<br /> <br /> replace 935 with cambozola version downloaded<br /> <br /> cp cambozola-0.935/dist/cambozola.jar /usr/share/zoneminder<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> You should now be able to access the web server using https://servername<br /> <br /> <br /> NTP Daily Sync<br /> <br /> <br /> nano /etc/cron.daily/ntpdate<br /> <br /> Copy the following into nano<br /> <br /> !/bin/sh<br /> ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com<br /> <br /> Ctrl+o Enter to save<br /> <br /> CTRL+x to exit<br /> <br /> chmod 755 /etc/cron.daily/ntpdate<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Open Zoneminder in web browser<br /> <br /> <br /> http://serverip/zm<br /> <br /> Click Options<br /> <br /> Uncheck: Check with zoneminder.com for updated versions (?) click Save<br /> <br /> Click Images tab<br /> <br /> check Is the (optional) cambozola java streaming client installed (?)<br /> Click Save<br /> <br /> <br /> Reboot server to insure Zoneminder starts on boot.</div>
