zm on Fedora 4

Post by Joe »

Does anyone know the reason why the RPMs work on Fedora 3 and not 4? Or is there a way to run ZM on FC4?

I tried to downgrade Perl, PHP, MySQL, and Apache in Fedora 4, and still no luck in making ZM run. Though ZM runs great on FC3.

Because there are a few things other than msql, php, etc... that have changed like glibc for example they do not work. You can upgrade a FC3 to FC4 and it will as all the required versions are still available however. I am working towards building for FC4 but it's still a little ways away.
Once I finnish the FC3 x86_64 based distro I'll be working on the FC4 based versions of things.

You can build ZM from source on FC4.

Before using the RPMs, I started with building it from source. It was successfully built. And the PHP part and the SQL parts worked great. But I was not able to have a stream from my AXIS 206. If I remember correctly, when I looked at the apache error log, it had something to do with the CGI header.

Really? Axis cams work really well with zm. Did you have pcre-devel installed when you built?

Yeah, AXIS cams are great. Actually it worked great with ZM and fedora 3.

I had pcre-devel installed it is:

pcre-devel-5.0-4.1.fc4
