The following is a Step-By-Step of how to install ZoneMinder 1.23.3 with CentOS 5.1. It is a current work in progress so first will be listed the steps, and then the explanations will be added this week including a Step-By-Step for installing the base OS of CentOS for ZoneMinder. Most of the content is from users from within the [http://www.zoneminder.com/forums Forums]
=== Installation Instructions ===
----
To install ZoneMinder on RHEL, CentOS, and compatible clones, please refer to the instructions shown on our readthedocs site.
The intent of this walk through is to install a very base/bare bones installation that will only run ZoneMinder. This would be for a dedicated ZoneMinder server with no GUI or any unnecessary services running. The reason for the very light-weight installation is so that the majority of system resources are available to ZoneMinder and not having to power the OS. With this installation Memory is reduced to around 140-160MB, and CPU usage is practically nonexistent.

'''Installing ZoneMinder 1.23.3'''


*Add the RPM Forge repository to CentOS. This will allow the installation of a number of services/applications later on without having to manually install them.

What follows is a link to old installation instructions which predate rpm installations from zmrepo or rpmfusion. They are kept solely for reference.  
*Download the needed files ZoneMinder 1.23.3 and the Cambozola addon
[[CentOS/Archived]]
wget http://www2.zoneminder.com/downloads/ZoneMinder-1.23.3.tar.gz
wget http://www.zoneminder.com/fileadmin/downloads/cambozola.jar
*Screen is a simple program that allows you to run commands from a "Hosted" command line interface. This helps if you loose your connection to the server for any reason in that it allows you to resume (screen -r) right where you left off. Often times I will start a large update/upgrade, leave it for the day, then come back and see where it is at.
*Install Screen
yum install screen
*To start a screen session just type
screen
*If you get disconnected and need to resume your session of screen simply type
screen -r
*Now let's install all the services and programs that will be needed
yum install mysql mysql-server mysql-devel php php-gd php-mysql httpd gcc pcre-devel gd mod_ssl glib2-devel gcc-c++ ntp gnutls-devel libjpeg-devel perl-Archive-Tar perl-MIME-Lite perl-MIME-tools perl-Date-Manip perl-Time-HiRes perl-LWP-UserAgent-Determined perl-PHP-Serialization perl-Device-SerialPort perl-Archive-Zip perl-Module-Load
*Now let's update everything within the new CentOS install
yum -y update
*Now we need to make sure we use the lasted "tested" version of "ffmpeg". This is the latest version of ffmpeg that the ZoneMinder developers have tested with
svn checkout -r 11879 svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg
cd ffmpeg/
./configure
make
make install
make install-libs
*Turn everything on
chkconfig httpd on
chkconfig mysqld on
chkconfig ntpd on
service httpd start
service mysqld start
service ntpd start
*Next we need to extract the contents of the ZoneMinder "tar" file, and then jump into its directory
cd /root/
tar -zxvf ZoneMinder-1.23.3.tar.gz
cd ZoneMinder-1.23.3
*Now we are going to configure ZoneMinder with some added statements. What is listed are default CentOS directory placements.
**Note that the name of the ZoneMinder database is "zm"
*Change "zmuser" (if you want) with the user that you will use within MySQL to access the ZoneMinder database
*Change "zmpass" with the password you will be using with the "zmuser" account
./configure --with-webdir=/var/www/html/zm --with-cgidir=/var/www/cgi-bin --with-webuser=apache --with-webgroup=apache ZM_DB_HOST=localhost ZM_DB_NAME=zm ZM_DB_USER=zmuser ZM_DB_PASS=zmpass
make
make install
*Need to add a password for the root user of MySQL
*Create the zm database
*Create the zm database user with permissions and password
mysql
mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR root@localhost=PASSWORD('new_root_password');
>Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> create database zm;
>Query OK, 1 row affected (0.01 sec)
mysql> grant CREATE, INSERT, SELECT, DELETE, UPDATE on zm.* to your_zm_user@localhost;
>Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.02 sec)
mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR your_zm_user@localhost=PASSWORD('your_zm_password_from_above');
>Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.25 sec)
mysql> exit
>Bye
*Import the tables into the zm database
mysql -u root -p < db/zm_create.sql zm
*Make it so that ZoneMinder will startup automatically when the system is rebooted
cp scripts/zm /etc/init.d/
chmod +x /etc/init.d/zm
chkconfig zm on
*Add the Cambozola Java web interface
cp cambozola.jar /var/www/html/zm/
*Start ZoneMinder
service zm start
*tick the box for support for the Cambozola addon within your ZoneMinder installation: http://ip-address/zm
