===Debian 9 with Zoneminder 1.30.4===
==Debian 12 with Zoneminder 1.36.x==
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 Bookworm is released with Zoneminder 1.36.33 and as usual for Debian the zm database needs to be created manually.


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


Install only: web server, SSH server and standard system utilities from tasksel
In time a version of Zoneminder for Bookworm will be made available in the zmrepo.


Login and become root (su root) or prepend sudo to the following commands
You will have to install sudo and add the user to the sudoers file.


If needed check to make sure you are up to date
Become root with


  apt update
  su
apt upgrade
apt dist-upgrade


===Install additional LAMP components Mariadb server (recommended)===
Install sudo


  apt install php mariadb-server php-mysql apache2-mod-php7.0
  apt install sudo


Secure Mariadb, create root password et. al.
Then add the user


  mysql_secure_installation
  /sbin/adduser username sudo


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


rm /etc/mysql/my.cnf 
Become root


  cp /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf
  sudo su


'''The following change to Mariadb settings is optional but is included if you have problems logging into Zoneminder'''
Timezone: it is recommended you set your specific timesone with:


  nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf
  timedatectl set-timezone America/New_York


Make the following changes:
Of course use your timezone in place of America/New_York


character-set-server = latin1
Install Apache2, PHP and your favorite database (Mariadb recommended). A quick way to install LAMP is:
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.
apt install apache2 mariadb-server php libapache2-mod-php php-mysql lsb-release gnupg2


Ctrl+o Enter to save
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+x to exit


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


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


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


Add the Deb Multimedia repository. (instructions at: https://deb-multimedia.org/)
Ctrl+o Enter to save


Edit sources.list
CTRL+x to exit


nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Restart Apache


Add to the end of the file:
service apache2 restart


deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org stretch main non-free
Install Zoneminder


Ctrl+o Enter to save
apt install zoneminder
Ctrl+x to exit


After you have added the necessary line in /etc/apt/sources.list the first package to install is deb-multimedia-keyring.
Create Zoneminder database in MySQL (Note: this also creates the default Zoneminder user and permissions in MySQL) Use the server root password when prompted.


  apt update
  mysql -uroot -p < /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_create.sql
apt install deb-multimedia-keyring


If apt-get can not find the new key, do that :
mysql -uroot -p -e "grant all on zm.* to 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'zmpass';"


  wget http://www.deb-multimedia.org/pool/main/d/deb-multimedia-keyring/deb-multimedia-keyring_2016.8.1_all.deb
  mysqladmin -uroot -p reload
dpkg -i deb-multimedia-keyring_2016.8.1_all.deb


Update packages list:
Set permissions


  apt update
  chmod 640 /etc/zm/zm.conf
  apt upgrade
   
  apt dist-upgrade
  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


Install Zoneminder
cp /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf.sav


  apt install zoneminder vlc-plugin-base php7.0-gd
  rm /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf


nano /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf


Set permissions of /etc/zm/zm.conf to root:www-data 740
Paste the following content into nano:
 
chmod 740 /etc/zm/zm.conf
 
chown root:www-data /etc/zm/zm.conf

===Alternate install MySQL Server===
Note: Install of MySQL was not tested with the Debian 9.0.0 release but should work based on past experience


apt install php default-mysql-server php-mysql apache2-mod-php7.0
Copy the contents of the script, open a terminal and run:


Make a change to MySQL settings: (Note: Your my.cnf may be in another location)
nano zm-install


nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf
Paste the contents of the script into Nano


In the [mysqld] section add the following
Then:


  sql_mode = NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION
  Ctrl + o Ctrl + x


Note: if you are installing on an existing database server you can use the following as an alternate to 'sql_mode = NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION' (Thanks to "bodom" for this alternate):
Next run:


  init_connect = 'SET @@sql_mode = CASE CURRENT_USER() WHEN \'zmuser@localhost\' THEN \'NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION\' ELSE @@sql_mode END;'
  chmod 755 zm-install


Ctrl+o Enter to save
Start the script by entering:
Ctrl+x to exit


Restart MySQL
./zm-install


systemctl restart mysql
Follow the prompts. Things are pretty simple. The timezone is now set in Zoneminder/Options.


Continue with Zoneminder install https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Debian_9_64-bit_with_Zoneminder_1.30.4_the_Easy_Way#Install_Zoneminder

Debian 12 with Zoneminder 1.36.x

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

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)

[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

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

Debian 12 with Zoneminder 1.37.x

Install Zoneminder Development Branch 1.37.x on Debian 12

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.

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


Become root with sudo su before running this!

Shell script file contents:

#!/bin/sh
clear
read -p "This script installs ZoneMinder 1.37.x on Debian 12 with LAMP (MySQL or Mariadb) installed...
This script must be run as root!
Press Enter to continue or Ctrl + c to quit" nothing
clear
apt install -y lsb-release gnupg2
echo "deb https://zmrepo.zoneminder.com/debian/master "`lsb_release  -c -s`"/" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/zoneminder.list
wget -O - https://zmrepo.zoneminder.com/debian/archive-keyring.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
read -p "Warning! Check above to insure the line says OK. If not the GPG signing key was not installed and you will need to figure out why before continuing. 
Press enter to continue" nothing
apt update
clear
apt install -y zoneminder
systemctl enable zoneminder
service zoneminder start
adduser www-data video
a2enconf zoneminder
a2enmod rewrite
a2enmod headers
a2enmod expires
service apache2 reload
clear
read -p "Install complete. Open Zoneminder/Options and set the timezone. Press enter to continue" nothing
clear


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.

Good Luck!
