Fresh Install on Prox 7.1 with Debian 11
Posted: Thu Feb 24, 2022 5:24 pm
I ran into some issues installing Zoneminder on a prox CT that I figured I would share to see if it would help save some other people some time:
I am using these https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Debian_11_B ... der_1.36.x as this was more up to date. It was missing though.
First, have Nesting enabled.
Next, MariaDB was having issues starting, so I found this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/599 ... ied-failed and it solved the issue.
Because it is a new install, root paths needed to be setup (I forget about this sometimes...)
Needed to uncomment out the www-data user in /lib/systemd/system/zoneminder.service that @gruiarew called out here: viewtopic.php?t=29382
From here it doesn't seem like daemon-reload worked as I was still getting the same error, so I rebooted. (If someone has a better option, I'm all ears...)
Doing these steps:
sudo a2enconf zoneminder
sudo a2enmod rewrite headers expires
sudo service apache2 reload
before starting Zoneminder service will help reduce the errors as well.
I wasted a few hours figuring this all out this past week. Hopefully this will help someone.
