Hi Phil - having only basic linux knowledge i am struggling a bit with this.
here is the output
zmuser@garyg-desktop:~$ ls -ld /var/www/zm/graphics
ls: /var/www/zm/graphics: Not a directory
I think i may revert back to installing Ubuntu and starting from scratch again
any further advise is appreciated

This thread has been extremely helpful to me for getting this installed and somewhat running, but I've run into a problem.
ZM is installed in the www directory and when I navigate to
http://localhost/zm/ all I get is a message saying "Could not select database: Unknown database 'zm'". So, I checked out what phpMyAdmin has to say, and it's only got the "information_schema" database, and no zm database.
So I manually created the zm database, but that only does me so much good since it's empty - duh. This is what the login page spits out: "Table 'zm.Config' doesn't exist
Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /var/www/zm/zm_config.php on line 169"
Where do I go from here to get the database populated?

See the README:
5. Installation
For a new installation the next thing you will need to do is create your database and database users. So type the commands as follows,
mysql mysql < db/zm_create.sql
mysql mysql
grant select,insert,update,delete on <database name>.* to '<database user>'@localhost identified by '<database password>';
quit
mysqladmin reload
If you already created the zm database you might have to delete it first
mysqladmin drop zm and then the above syntax should work just fine.
Regards,
Corey

I have already done this part, so now I have an empty database and a username to log on to it with. What do I do next? DO I populate the database with data now, or do I leave it empty and just tell ZM somehow what my username and password are?

Thats the method I used actually, I tried the way in the Wiki first and it didn't work and it installed it in some other directory, so I tried this way and its gotten me farther.
The only thing I haven't done yet is the Cambozola, but I would imagine that has little to do with my database being empty.
Once again I ask: how do I populate my database?? It is empty! Any ideas?

lol ok ok - I know, it should create it but it doesn't. I also have to use sudo to get the mysql command to work.
Code: Select all
chris@home-security:~$ sudo mysql
Password:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 9 to server version: 5.0.22-Debian_0ubuntu6.06.2-log
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.
mysql> mysql < db/zm_create.sql
-> mysql mysql
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON zm.* TO 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'zmpass';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.12 sec)
mysql> quit
Bye
