I have been successfully using ZoneMinder 1.2.3 for some time now.

When I heard that the version is out I tried to compile 1.2.4.

I used ffmpeg 0.4.8 installed in /usr/local firstly. The result is failure:

Code: Select all

make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/packages/BUILD/zm-1.21.4/src'

Afterwards I tried the latest ffmpeg 0.4.9 cvs release although I don't enable faac, which fault as dafult, the ffmpeg compilation result is again failure:

I am using SuSE Linux 9.3 with mostly the latest libraries updated via apt.

I can revert back to zm 1.2.3, however I want to use the new features and want to help on further development.

Could you please help ?

In your first example where you have ffmpeg in a nont standard location, I can't see any evidence that the compiler is looking there for the include files. It looks like a version mismatch somewhere. What were your configure options?

The second problem is just ffmpeg and I don't even know what faac is I'm afraid!

/usr/local has ffmpeg 0.4.8 installed.

The configure line was:

Code: Select all

./configure --with-mysql=/usr --with-ffmpeg=/usr/local --with-lame=/usr --with-webdir=/srv/www/htdocs/fm --with-cgidir=/srv/www/cgi-bin/fm --with-openssl=/usr --with-webuser=wwwrun --with-webgroup=www

I found out the problem and successfully compiled.

Reason: The versions of ffmpeg in /usr and /usr/local conflict with each other.
Here is the solution: I completely removed the ffmpeg installation (from source files) in /usr/local and reinstalled the 20051015 cvs version from Packman RPMs.

./configure --with-mysql=/usr --with-ffmpeg=/usr --with-lame=/usr --with-webdir=/srv/www/htdocs/fm --with-cgidir=/srv/www/cgi-bin/fm --with-openssl=/usr --with-webuser=wwwrun --with-webgroup=www

perl zmpkp.pl -noi

make

make install

Successful installation !

(BTW I'm sorry for the bother. I just missed a simple point)

Thanks for the update. It's always useful to have solutions posted as well as problems

No problem.

I know what it means to be a solution developer

I want to post other issues regarding database schemas for easier internationalisation nd further more.

In which forum should I post them to ?

Possibly the Feature Requests forum would be the best one. I know you sent me a mail a couple of days ago on this. I've been away for the weekend and have only just got back so I will reply to you this evening. But if you want to open this up to a wider audience then posting is probably just as good!
