===Debian 9 with Zoneminder 1.30.4===
08OCT17 - This procedure has been verified with the Debian 9.2.0. 


Note: 23JUN17 - I was able to get the libvlc source to work! I have added the install for vlc-plugin-base which allows the Zoneminder install to complete without errors. However, I have been getting some console errors from VLC. It may be my old camera and you may have good results with libvlc but I consider ffmpeg better to use.
==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.  


I used Debian 9 net install CD (https://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/).  
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.  


Install only: web server, SSH server and standard system utilities from tasksel
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


Login and become root (su root) or prepend sudo to the following commands
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.


If needed check to make sure you are up to date
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

New install process with a shell script!
Become root with sudo su before running this!
Shell script file contents:

Copy the contents of the script, open a terminal and run:
 
  nano zm-install
 
Paste the contents of the script into Nano
 
Then:
 
Ctrl + o Ctrl + x
 
Next run:
 
chmod 755 zm-install
 
Start the script by entering:
 
./zm-install
 
Follow the prompts. Things are pretty simple. The timezone is now set in Zoneminder/Options.


===Install additional LAMP components Mariadb server (recommended)===
Good Luck!

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


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).
'''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.'''


rm /etc/mysql/my.cnf 
In time a version of Zoneminder for Bookworm will be made available in the zmrepo.


cp /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf
You will have to install sudo and add the user to the sudoers file.  


'''The following change to Mariadb settings is optional but is included if you have problems logging into Zoneminder'''
Become root with


  nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf
  su


Make the following changes:
Install sudo


  character-set-server = latin1
  apt install sudo
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.
Then add the user


Ctrl+o Enter to save
/sbin/adduser username sudo


Ctrl+x to exit
I recommend rebooting at this point but a log out and back in also works.


Restart Mariadb
Become root


  service mariadb restart
  sudo su


===Install Zoneminder===
Timezone: it is recommended you set your specific timesone with:


Add the Deb Multimedia repository. (instructions at: https://deb-multimedia.org/)
timedatectl set-timezone America/New_York


Edit sources.list
Of course use your timezone in place of America/New_York


nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Install Apache2, PHP and your favorite database (Mariadb recommended). A quick way to install LAMP is:


Add to the end of the file:
apt install apache2 mariadb-server php libapache2-mod-php php-mysql lsb-release gnupg2


deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org stretch main non-free
Add timezone to PHP (This may not be necessary but does not hurt and will allow the time of events to be displayed correctly)


Ctrl+o Enter to save
nano /etc/php/8.2/apache2/php.ini


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


After you have added the necessary line in /etc/apt/sources.list the first package to install is deb-multimedia-keyring.
[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
; http://php.net/date.timezone
date.timezone = America/New_York


apt update
Ctrl+o Enter to save
apt install deb-multimedia-keyring


If apt-get can not find the new key, do that :
CTRL+x to exit


wget http://www.deb-multimedia.org/pool/main/d/deb-multimedia-keyring/deb-multimedia-keyring_2016.8.1_all.deb
Restart Apache
dpkg -i deb-multimedia-keyring_2016.8.1_all.deb


Update packages list:
service apache2 restart


apt update
or
apt upgrade
apt dist-upgrade


systemctl restart apache2


Install Zoneminder
Install Zoneminder


  apt install zoneminder vlc-plugin-base php7.0-gd

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

10OCT17 - An issue with the /tmp/zm directory has been reported. Debian uses private tmp folders so even though you can see the files & folders, zoneminder cannot because it is running under a different user account.
Become root with sudo su before running this!


Go to Options -> Paths and then inspect each PATH_XXX variable. If it is set to "/tmp/zm", change it to "/dev/shm". Don't forget to restart zoneminder.

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/
