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.  
==Debian 12 with Zoneminder 1.36.x==


Use Debian 9 net install CD. Install only: web server, SSH server and standard system utilities from tasksel
Debian 12 Bookworm is released with Zoneminder 1.36.33 and as usual for Debian the zm database needs to be created manually.


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


If needed check to make sure you are up to date
In time a version of Zoneminder for Bookworm will be made available in the zmrepo.


apt update
You will have to install sudo and add the user to the sudoers file.
apt upgrade
apt dist-upgrade


===Install additional LAMP components Mariadb server (recommended)===
Become root with


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


Secure Mariadb, create root password et. al.
Install sudo


  mysql_secure_installation
  apt install 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).
Then add the user


  rm /etc/mysql/my.cnf 
  /sbin/adduser username sudo


cp /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf
I recommend rebooting at this point but a log out and back in also works.


Change Mariadb settings:
Become root


  nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf
  sudo su


Make the following changes:
Timezone: it is recommended you set your specific timesone with:


  character-set-server = latin1
  timedatectl set-timezone America/New_York
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.
Of course use your timezone in place of America/New_York


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


CTRL+x to exit
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)


===Install MySQL Server===
nano /etc/php/8.2/apache2/php.ini


apt install php default-mysql-server php-mysql apache2-mod-php7.0
Search for [Date] (Ctrl + w then type Date and press Enter) and make changes as follows for your time zone


Make a change to MySQL settings: (Note: Your my.cnf may be in another location)
[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


  nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf
  service apache2 restart


In the [mysqld] section add the following
Install Zoneminder


  sql_mode = NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION
  apt install zoneminder


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


CTRL+x to exit
mysql -uroot -p < /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_create.sql


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


  systemctl restart mysql
  mysqladmin -uroot -p reload


Set permissions


Add the Deb Multimedia repository. (instructions at: https://deb-multimedia.org/)
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/


Edit sources.list
Replace zoneminder.conf


  nano /etc/apt/sources.list
  cp /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf.sav


Add to the end of the file:
rm /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf


  deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org stretch main non-free
  nano /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf

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.

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.

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!
