I followed the wiki at:
http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Fedora

for a Fedora 17 installation today and keep getting a Bareword error when I try to start it. I've tried removing and reinstalling several times with no success.

Built using wiki and this blog. It appears to work fine. Didn't fully check it out though.

Thanks!

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling today and it worked.

You're welcome! Just happened to have a F17 box that I use to test preupgrade on (started out as a F12 box and is now F17) before upgrading the rest of my systems, just to be sure. I haven't had to reconfigure any system for so long I'm not sure I could. Fedora has me sold!
