You will have to manualy download the packages till I get them out of testing and into the repo. Just make sure you backup just in case

Corey

Cordel - Great job
James - Thanks for the assist

I tried various searches over and over, but basically this is the install in its entirety:

Using FC3 ISO, image system with ZM, add KDE / GUI interface
Perform the following in the terminal screen:

yum update
chkconfig --levels 345 httpd on
chkconfig --levels 345 mysqld on
service mysqld start
service httpd start
vi /etc/zm.conf (So you can add the username and password you want for the database)
/usr/lib/zm/bin/zminit (To create and populate the database, default user->root and leave the password blank)
service zm start


*** Can't find the exact line I used ***
yum update -x10-* (Something like that, mod please fix)

Ran latest 1.22 rpm

Rebooted...

goto http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/zm
admin / admin
configured cameras
- If one 4 port video-camera card ensure the device = /dev/video0 and channel 0,1,2,3
- If another card, that one is /dev/video1 and channel 0,1,2,3

Hope this helps anyone else venturing into the ZoneMinder realm with no clue. I apologize about the yum update -x10-*... It's in the forums but I can't find the exact line to install it command line. Hopefully a mod can just update my post for that string.

Cordel, My only question is this. In the 1.21.4 the camera stopped recording once it reached 32000 events. Is this still a limitation? It will take me a month to find out. I was looking to auto-delete last 5000 records once events reach 32000 event, but there is not a delete by event count in the filter system.

Nonetheless, great work and management system for cameras!
[Edit:Cordel] The package is perl-X10 and you also need to download and install ffmpeg and ffmpeg-libpostproc versions 0.4.9-3 If you are upgrading you must manualy remove the zm-X10 package (Sorry I haven't figured how to deal with this yet) before upgrading if you have it installed.

the 32000 limit is a file system limit as ext2/3 are limited to 32000 subfolders. ReiserFS is not restricted like this so some people use reiser if ext3 isnt big enough, this is not a ZM issue

Hi,

I try install the zm-1.22.2-0.1.fc.root.i386.rpm
from your site but I suspect about incompatibility with
my arch in a FC3 default distro. ou in Fc4/FC5.

Please, do You Have the src.rpm of 1.22.2 to try build it in my machine?

Tanks!!!

this is only a fc3 rpm, you can try to build zm from source but there is no source rpm

That would make sense James, thank you.

On that note, is there a way to change ZM filters for autodelete events? or possible future release so this would not be an issue?

Or can I change my file structure in FC3 to ReiserFS without losing data . . . Not sure of this and it might make you laugh with me asking. I know I can go up and down from fat16-32-ntfs but hae no clue about Windows.

you can go fate16-32 to ntfs but i think its not easy back down, Yes it can be done you basically have to move mount points dismount etc. Im sure if you know what yuour doing its a doddle, if it were me id copy accrsoss any images i neeed to keep and re-install ctu and select a Rieser at install. Im no linux expert maybe one of the linux guru's could add a wiki entry for this if its straight(ish) forward.

Just a note and you might want to do some research but xfs sounds pretty promising over rieserfs. It also is able to support SELinux (should I some day finish that project or someone beats me to it). You can find more info here.
In FC to enable while loading at the boot prompt -> BOOT: linux xfs
Same for rieserfs and jfs but SELinux has to be disabled. "None of these file systems are officially supported by the Fedora Project. (That means that you can use them, but you won't find a lot of official help from the Fedora Project if things go wrong.)"

Regards,
Corey
