Help Adding Dedicated Partitions

Post by jameyw »

I have ZM setup and working on Centos7 and I need to add a couple of drives for video and log storage. I have followed the instructions at https://zoneminder.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.html but I am running into a problem. I'm sure it is simple but I am not a Linux expert so I need a little help.

When I follow the steps to set folder permissions, everything goes OK until the last command is issued: chmod -R apache:apache /mnt/sdb1/zoneminder

I get the following message: chmod: invalid mode: ‘apache:apache’
Try 'chmod --help' for more information.

The webserver is running as apache and the group name is apache. What am I missing or doing wrong?
