Hi,
I have ZM 1.23.3 installed and all working with Mandriva 2008 except that it does not start automatically at boot.

I have copied the zm script to the etc/rc.d/init.d. I checked it is there and has the leading 99 in the order start file.

boot several times with no luck. any help please ?

Presently I am starting it manually after each boot : zmpkg.gl start

Do I need to modify the script ? Any suggestions. Thanks

Is it just in init.d or in one of the rc dirs? Did you make sure its set executable?

Solved.

Install it in /etc/init.d directory in order to work NOT in the etc/rc.d/init.d

did this in the zoneminder scripts directory as root:

install scripts/zm /etc/init.d
chkconfig --add zm
