ZoneMinder Forums

hello guys... i have source code of zoneminder which i configure and make successfuly. But when I make install this code, it shows errors like
- cannot remove /usr/bin/zmc : Permission denied
before I build this source, I installed zoneminder fron internet (using Terminal) and not from source. Why this error is shown? thnx

You need to run make install as root user?

yup...thanx.

I guess you probably should remove the zm package too, before running the make install again.

The issue you may have otherwise is if you do a system update, and it has a new update for the zm package, it will then potentially overwite the files you compiled.
