ZM-MP 1.24.2-8.1
OpenSuse 11.3

I am following the "Installing using ZoneMinder RPMs for SUSE" from this website. I installed opensuse on the machine. I added repositories to yast as indicated. I installed those (mp version).

When I get to the setting up MySQL and Apache I start root console by using control alt F5. I login, but when i run rcapache2 start, the command is not recognized. I get the warning to use cnf if it is not a typo.

I'm really not sure what to do next to verify where the problem is. Please help.

Just start a consul, su and password.

Then follow this how to .

From here.
Setting up MySQL and Apache

A couple of pointers.
If you plan on using the opensuse updates.
Do so before you install and setup ZM.
They just put out a security update for phpapache and it hose my apache and can't view it with the web interface, but ZM is still working.

Also restart apache after you setup and start mysql.
Follow mysql instuctions.

You will notice after all is done that ZM will fail to start in the consul. Don't worry about it, It started.
Just open firefox and type in, #http://localhost/zm

Also you may have to go to Yast/runlevels and check apache,mysql and ZM is set to start. If not change it.

I think thats it.
