Cannot Login To ZoneMinder Interface

Post by alteredstate »

Ok, I'm going to be the comic relief for this post but I cannot for the life of me login to the ZoneMinder Interface. I enabled this feature thinking it was my system username and password and then closed my web browser...guess I was wrong. Do I need to create a MySQL username and password? I thought this might be the case because I found this under the Ubuntu Installation tutorial (I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop):

Code: Select all

# sudo mysql -u root -p < /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_create.sql
# mysql -u root -p (this brings you into a mysql shell)
# > grant select,insert,update,delete on zm.* to 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'zmpass';
# > flush privileges;
# > quit (this exits the mysql shell) 
I'm sure this is an easy fix but I'm not familiar with MySQL, Apache or ZoneMinder; I'm still trying to teach myself how these three systems work together.

Hi,

Did you change the settings as explained here:

http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.ph ... _interface

Mainly look the section 'Define the web address of the ZoneMinder interface'.

Hope it helps,

After more than 15 years, no longer using ZM as surveillance system.
Now in the dark side, using a commercial system...

That did it, thank you! I guess I need to read the Ubuntu 9.04 tutorial instead of the 10.04.
