This is an initial "fix" for those of you wanting to use Ubuntu 13.10. These fixes apply to both the ZM 1.25.0 from the Ubuntu distribution and the 1.26.4 from the Launchpad ppa area.

For Ubuntu 13.10 the symbolic link creation should be:

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

When you try to access the ZM web page you get a blank screen.

The issue is in the php.ini file and is a value called:

short_open_tag = Off

This value needs to be set to On

sudo nano /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

find the short_open_tag = Off and change it to On

Ctrl +o to save the file Ctrl +x to exit

/etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload

and now you should see the ZM page!
