1.24 Installation on Ubuntu Server 8.04.1

[zoneminder_andre]

Hey guys,
I just tried to install zoneminder 1.24 on a clean Ubuntu Server 8.04.1

./configure --with-libarch=lib --with-mysql=/usr/local --with-webdir=/var/www/zm --with-cgidir=/usr/lib/cgi-bin --with-webuser=www-data --with-webgroup=www-data ZM_SSL_LIB=openssl --with-ffmpeg=/usr/include

works fine ... but

make install

stops with the following error:

....

I tried to ./configure without the ffmpeg option but that does not seem to help. I keep getting the same error.

Any ideas??

I worked my ass off as a total linux newbie to make the configure work, but I didn't expect an error with the make...

Heh, I'm basically using linux for the first time as well (for some real business that is) I suggest reading my thread in the same forum here and look how I got it wotking. I wasn't installing it on server but 8.04 as well.

Why not use a pre-complied ready packacge? Only double click and soon enough you'll have it working. But first you should install the fallowing stuff as well:
mplayer
mplayerplug-in
xawtv
mysql
perl
php
mozilla dev package (actually you need gecko, but it comes with that pack so you can use apt-get)

Please try the latest RC and let me know if you still get the issue.
