CentOS 5.8 Install problems.

[cbjessup]

I recently installed CentOS on a server and am trying to get ZoneMinder to install. I followed the steps on the CentOS part of the Wiki. I used the ./configure --with-webdir=/var/www/html/zm --with-cgidir=/var/www/cgi-bin --with-ffmpeg=/usr/local/share/ffmpeg CPPFLAGS="-D__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS" option and when I try to make this is the output:

I made sure ffmpeg was installed and working correctly..this is the output of ffmpeg:

Use -h to get full help or, even better, run 'man ffmpeg'

I don't have a clue what I am doing wrong.

If it helps I am getting the same error with Centos 5.8 as well.
Ive read in other forums turning off ffmpeg may help but I haven't confirmed that personally.

If the CentOs Wiki has you retrieving the most recent version of ffmpeg (haven't read it myself), then that is the cause of the zonemidner compile problem. Try using an older version of ffmpeg. ffmpeg 0.65 works well for me using CentOS 6. ffmpeg 0.65 is in the rpmforge repositories so you don't have to compile it.
