Help needed for installation

Hi,
I am working on installing zoneminder on Debian, but are having some issues.
I am following this guide:
https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Debian_10_B ... pro_Master
Everything works fine, untill I try to run the sudo apt install zoneminder, which gives me the error: E: Unable to locate package zoneminder.
This is what my sources.list looks like:

- sources.list.PNG (76.76 KiB) Viewed 3261 times
Can anybody see, what I am doing wrong?

Ran that install yesterday on a Pi 3b+ with Buster. Had no issues. Make sure the wget command completes. Also best to become root with sudo su and leave out the sudo on the commands.
If I find time tomorrow I will load up Buster on my test PC and proof the install steps.

Made a couple of changes in the install procedure to reflect updates to Zoneminder. Removed some confusing and unneeded steps. Provided a link to good instructions for LAMP on Debian Buster.

This procedure will likely still work with the release of Zoneminder 1.34.x (next week?) with a slight adjustment in sources.list.
Happy Holidays!

I think you have an extra /
the zmrepo line should be
deb
https://zmrepo.zoneminder.com/debian/master buster/
note the lack of / after master.
