ZoneMinder Forums

Hi,

I tried to install zoneminder by ./configure .. make install..

well... I have a Debian distro, and i would like to re-install the software by apt-get


so... How can I uninstall the previus installation of zoneminder?




very thanks

If you install from apt-get, you´ll get a little outdated version (because those packages must be assembled by someone first);

i really suggest you intall using one of the wiki tutorials (ubuntu applies ok to debian), so you´ll get the subversion updated zoneminder that fix a lot of issues that you were going to face if you used apt-get;

i suggest that you erase the zm directory under /var/www and /usr/src, with big care, and then follow a tutorial below;
