Trouble w install: linking apache to ZM

Post by Pete1606 »

Hi I began installing ZM in unbuntu server 12.04 and I had no trouble until the step where I have to link apache to ZM.

I get the command not found when I enter the first code in the section that starts w ‘sudo 1n -s’… Is that a number 1 or a letter I ? How do I diagnose this problem?

sudo ln -s /etc/zm/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/zoneminder.conf

Check the paths, maybe is /etc/zoneminder/apache.conf instead of /etc/zm/apache.conf

Hope it helps,

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

Hello. I'm running ZM on Ubuntu 12.04 server. I used the package in the repos to install.

To answer your question, that's an "L," lower case. ln -s makes a symbolic link. (ln for link & -s for symbolic).

Hopefully that helps.
