Since the packages built for openSUSE are currently broken (They are configured for external MySQL authentication instead of local authentication and don't provide a means to configure remote authentication),
Am trying to install from source.
Have downloaded the 1.27 tarball and extracted.
Following the documentation, am supposed to run ./configure but no such file exists, only configure.ac which is what is used to create configure.
Advice?
Thx.
Installing from source - no configure, only configure.ac

Run bootstrap.sh first, then ./confgiure.
Or you could use cmake instead of autotools

Re: Installing from source - no configure, only configure.ac
Zoneminder 1.26.4 introduced cmake as the build tool and there is a note in the INSTALL file that this will become the default so I guess that's why 1.27 doesn't have a configure script. The cmake route works fine.
As far as a package for OpenSuse is concerned, there is work going on to produce working ones.
