I downloaded the zm source 1.24.25 and proceded to /configure it on ubuntu latest edition.

./configure --with-webdir=/var/www/html/zm --with-cgidir=/var/www/cgi-bin --with-mysql=/usr/local ZM_DB_PASS=xxxxx ZM_DB_NAME=zm ZM_DB_USER=lortech --with-ffmpeg=/usr/bin/ffmpeg --with-libarch --with-webuser=apache --with-extralibs=lm3plame --enable-debug=yes-enable-crashtrace=yes --with-webgroup=apache --enable-mmap=yes --enable-crashtrace=yes

See `config.log' for more details.


So error log says this:
cat config.log
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by zm configure 1.24.2, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.59. Invocation command line was

$ ./configure --with-webdir=/var/www/html/zm --with-cgidir=/var/www/cgi-bin --with-mysql=/usr/local ZM_DB_PASS=icu812 ZM_DB_NAME=zm ZM_DB_USER=lortech --with-ffmpeg=/usr/bin/ffmpeg --with-libarch --with-webuser=apache --with-extralibs=lm3plame --enable-debug=yes-enable-crashtrace=yes --with-webgroup=apache --enable-mmap=yes --enable-crashtrace=yes

First time a ./configure failed on me, so this log is new to me.

Thanks

good news!

Seems I was having memory setting issues. smmin amd smmax were set to zero. So gave them the correct memory settings. I can now see flicker free vidio in xawtv!!! but, The zoneminder source text is still red!! it needs to be yellow to read the vidio. I still have a problem and will not get vidio in zoneminder web page.

Well, did a chown www-data.www.data /dev/Vidio0 as what was instructed to get the deamon to be read by zoneminder and now zoneminder will not start. Get this error!

Starting ZoneMinder: sh: Syntax error: end of file unexpected
failure

BTW, www-data.www.data does not make any sence. Should this have been http://localhost/zm ?

I would love to provide a response to this gentleman, but I keep getting this message:

"Your post looks too spamy for a new user, please remove off-site URLs."

Despite having no off site URL's in my post. Can someone please remove this limitation from my account so I can jump in here and help out..

Your ./configure is somewhat messed up. You had some things that don't need to be there, and some were duplicated. I fixed it for you: mastertheknife

masterknife,

We talked on irc tonight. thanks for the help getting my system configured as well as bb99 and Coyote.

Now, zoneminder is not loading on bootup. I can manually load the rc file by typing in:

/etc/rc2.d/S20zoneminder start

And it does load. But what in the boot process loads this rc file?
