Anyone tried ZM on Fedora Core 5 yet?

Btw when will 1.22.1 be out?

I beleive that Cordel is working on fc5 rpm's. But i think it will be a couple of months before the rpm's are ready.

1.22.1 shouldnt be long but Phil has had a run on releases latly from 1.21.3 so i cant see him being able to keep up with the previous releases as the things being added now are quite large and takes him a bigger chunk of his zm time.

Oddly enough I had 1.22.1 95% finished within 2 weeks of 1.22.0. It's just finding time for that last 5% after my house move that is proving so elusive!

Am I right in thinking that the pan/tilt stuff in ZM is broken in the current 1.22 release and will only work again in 1.22.1?

Will give FC5 and ZM ago this weekend.

ZM works just fine on FC5.

Installed from source with hardly any problems.

Not as far as I know? There is an issue with editing control capabilities but that is all I think and there is a patch available if you need that fixing.

Trying to install 1.22 on FC5 but I get an openssl/MD5.h error with the compiler. Anyone seen a way to get around this?

Just to confirm I have the same problem with 1.22 on FC5. I tried installing openssl-devel but this made no improvement.

I also tried 1.21 on FC5 and that installed fine.

Did anyone find a fix?

Thanks

There is a fix but it is 1.22.1 which I have finished and is just awaiting wrapup. In the meantime you _might_ get configure to work by including <stdlib.h> in md5.h itself as it fails because it can't find size_t. If this does work then take it out after running configure because it appears to be an autoconf problem only.

Hi all!

I have troubles on fedora core 4 when configuring zm with such params:

Code: Select all

 CC=gcc32 CXX=gcc32 ./configure --with-webdir=/var/www/html/zm --with-mysql=/usr --with-cgidir=/var/www/cgi-bin/zm 

Code: Select all

checking for jpeg_start_compress in -ljpeg... no
configure: error: zm requires libjpeg.a
[root@cherry ZoneMinder-1.22.0]# rpm -qa | grep libjpeg
libjpeg-6b-34
libjpeg-devel-6b-34
any ideas?

You need to determine where the libjpeg.a file actually is? If you do a 'locate libjpeg.a' it should tell you.

Had that error on FC5. Someone posted a fix in the forums.

Download version 1.21 and open up the configure script. Copy the md5 section from the 1.21 configure script and overriden the section in your 1.22 configure script.

SEE - http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewto ... highlight=

Job done. Works well on FC5.

Check in config.log and post the section where it tests for libjpeg. Hopefully that will contain something useful.
