CentOS7, ZMrepo, Clean Install - No HTTP on http : // ip/zm

[UmuziDan]

Hi,

I've attempted this twice.

1. Create clean install of minimal Centos 7
2. Yum update
3. Apply commands per zmrepo - no problem
4. Follow steps in README - no problem, including service starting
5. Test Web GUI - no response. Checking at http : // ip/zm

I've verified that httpd is running and binded it directly to network adapter IP on port 80
I've verified with netstat that port is being monitored
I've checked httpd access and error logs and found no access attempts or errors
I've checked for zm logs in /var/log/zoneminder, but the folder is empty.

Help?

I checked the WIKI and there is no procedure for your version of CentOS. But, under Debian based distributions you need to enable cgi in Apache to get ZM to show. This is my best guess...

The instructions for getting Redhat based distros working, using zmrepo, is on the zmrepo site.
zmrepo.zoneminder.com

Based on what the OP said, he is following the instructions.

Here is a youtube video of me setting things up in just over 8 minutes:

The video is for CentOS 6, but the steps are identical for CentOS 7.
Try to compare that to what you did.

Notice in the video that I'm doing everything from the local terminal.
Also note that Redhat based distros usually ship with the Firewall on and is set to block all in coming connections.

So if you are trying this from a remote machine, rather than the local terminal, then you've got to either disable the firewalld service or you need to punch holes in it.
