CentOS 8 cannot install zoneminder

[Crazyjpeters]

I'm in the same boat. I'm trying to use NGINX. I can follow the installation instructions up until I get to start NGINX, and I get errors. This has got to be the most clunky software I've ever tried to install...

I'm lost.....
I can't get it to install

I realize that this is a bit old, but I tried and got it installed on Centos8 by doing:

Code: Select all

dnf config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools
dnf install zoneminder

@knight-of-ni works perfectly when I enable PowerTools.

Thanks for the headsup.

I enabled power tools using this: https://andrewsarver.com/enable-centos- ... ools-repo/
then "sudo yum install perl-DateTime"
then was able to "sudo yum install zoneminder" and it all went according to plan

Hi

I was happy to find this thread and the previous posting ... I enabled the PowerTools, I installed 'perl-DateTime' ...

... then was able to "sudo yum install zoneminder" and it all went according to plan

... not here: (I translate from German): "Last check for expired metadata Fri 30 Oct No match for argument zoneminder"

??? Please help step by step to install zm on a new Centos 8 system (me=rookie)

Thx

This should help.

I'm overstrained ... should I download 'https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/el/r ... noarch.rpm' - and then?

Yes, you download and install it. That adds the repo to your system. Then you can install any software that the new repo knows about.
