Debian 9 with Zoneminder 1.30.4
__TOC__


This procedure was created and tested on 04JUNE17. As Debian 9 is still in the testing phase, I do not recommend you use this for a production Zoneminder system.


Use Debian 9 net install CD. Install only: web server, SSH server and standard system utilities from tasksel
==Debian 12 with Zoneminder 1.36.34==
Debian 12 has been released with Zoneminder 1.36.33 and as usual for Debian the zm database needs to be created manually. This is not user friendly.  So we will be using the packages provided by the ZoneMinder development team hosted at zmrepo.zoneminder.com.


Login and become root (su root) or prepend sudo to the following commands
Debian, unlike Ubuntu, does not install sudo with the initial setup. While you can log in as root, a user with sudo authority is recommended.


If needed check to make sure you are up to date
To enable sudo:
In a terminal,become root with su. Enter your root password.
Install sudo with:
apt install sudo
Add the user account to the group sudo with:
/sbin/adduser username sudo
where username is your user account.
Exit root then log out and then log in with the same user.
Become root:
sudo su


Timezone: it is recommended you set your specific timesone with:
timedatectl set-timezone America/New_York
Of course use your timezone in place of America/New_York.
1. Install Apache2, PHP and your favorite database (Mariadb recommended). A quick way to install LAMP is:
apt install apache2 mariadb-server php libapache2-mod-php php-mysql lsb-release gnupg2

Start the script by entering:


NOTE:The MySQL/MariaDB configuration file is located at: /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf To better manage the MariaDB server I recommend you move the config file and replace the default my.cnf symbolic link (this also works for MySQL 5.6).
./zm-install


rm /etc/mysql/my.cnf 
Follow the prompts. Things are pretty simple. The timezone is now set in Zoneminder/Options.

collation-server = latin1_swedish_ci


Note: The above settings are actually the Mariadb default. Changing back to default is necessary to avoid errors when logging into Zoneminder. This was added on 01APR17 but is not an April Fool! It may be necessary to align these settings with your regional language.
In time a version of Zoneminder for Bookworm will be made available in the zmrepo.

Old procedure retained for reference

Debian 12 Bookworm is released with Zoneminder 1.36.33 and as usual for Debian the zm database needs to be created manually.

Note: This version has been verified with Bookworm Debian 12 official release. A few issues have been found and corrected. Zoneminder now opens in Firefox (Windows, Linux and Android), Edge, Chrome (on Android). ZmNinja on Android also works. If using ZmNinja you may have to clear the API cache. Please report other errors on the Zoneminder forum.

In time a version of Zoneminder for Bookworm will be made available in the zmrepo.

You will have to install sudo and add the user to the sudoers file.

Become root with 

su

Install sudo 

apt install sudo

Then add the user 

/sbin/adduser username sudo

I recommend rebooting at this point but a log out and back in also works.

Become root 

sudo su

Timezone: it is recommended you set your specific timesone with: 

timedatectl set-timezone America/New_York

Of course use your timezone in place of America/New_York

Install Apache2, PHP and your favorite database (Mariadb recommended). A quick way to install LAMP is: 

apt install apache2 mariadb-server php libapache2-mod-php php-mysql lsb-release gnupg2

Add timezone to PHP (This may not be necessary but does not hurt and will allow the time of events to be displayed correctly) 

nano /etc/php/8.2/apache2/php.ini

Search for [Date] (Ctrl + w then type Date and press Enter) and make changes as follows for your time zone 

[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
; http://php.net/date.timezone
date.timezone = America/New_York

Ctrl+o Enter to save

CTRL+x to exit

Restart Apache 

service apache2 restart

or 

systemctl restart apache2

Install Zoneminder 

apt install zoneminder

Create Zoneminder database in MySQL (Note: this also creates the default Zoneminder user and permissions in MySQL) Use the server root password when prompted. 

mysql -uroot -p < /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_create.sql

mysql -uroot -p -e "grant all on zm.* to 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'zmpass';"

mysqladmin -uroot -p reload

Set permissions 

chmod 640 /etc/zm/zm.conf

chown root:www-data /etc/zm/zm.conf

chown -R www-data:www-data /var/cache/zoneminder/

chmod 755 /var/cache/zoneminder/

Replace zoneminder.conf
