Zoneminder and Linux Mint 17.2

During several years of using linux I’ve had many frustrations and solved many problems, learning a great deal along the way.  One of the biggest thorns in my side in that time has been Zoneminder – security camera software for linux.  I’ve tried multiple times over the years to get it working on different distros, spending many hours each time on the internet troubleshooting.  All attempts ended in failure, until today.  I thought with my first blog post I could possibly help others in the same situation.

My specific setup is as follows:

• Linux Mint 17.2
• LG Venice Android phone
• IP Webcam software

The Problems

1. After installing via apt-get, going to localhost/zm gives a 404 error.
   First off, as of mid-August 2015, the default Mint repo Zoneminder is outdated. So after removing Zoneminder with

   sudo apt-get purge zoneminder

   I added Isaac Connor’s Zoneminder repository, which had a more up-to-date version.

   sudo add-apt-repository ppa:iconnor/zoneminder
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install zoneminder
   

   Now to solve the 404 error, I needed to create a symbolic link from my Apache web directory to the Zoneminder directory:

   sudo ln -s /usr/share/zoneminder /var/www/html/zm

   And I needed to link the Zoneminder config file for Apache:

   sudo ln -s /etc/zm/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/zoneminder.conf

   Now going to localhost/zm brought up the console properly.
2. After adding the camera, nothing is displayed
   This is what gave me trouble for the longest time. I finally found the solution that worked for me in a bug report HERE. It turns out the Zoneminder requires CGI to be enabled in Apache, but it’s disabled by default. Enable it with:

   sudo service apache2 stop
   sudo service zoneminder stop
   sudo a2enmod cgi
   sudo service zoneminder start
   sudo service apache2 start

   After this, upon reloading the console and opening the monitor, I saw the camera feed. Finally SUCCESS!! Hopefully this will help others who’ve been stuck as well.
