select server and customize now options
Then click "Next" to continue on
Once presented with the custom package selection you need to un-check/check the following:
Applications = Check only "Editors" and "Text Based Internet" Development = Check only "Development Libraries" and "Development Tools" Servers = Un-check everything Base System = Check only "Base" (you can check Administration Tools and System Tools if you need them, but they are not necessary)
Now let the system finish installing
Reboot all commands should be run as root
After the first reboot the setup screen should appear. If not then log into the system and type "setup"
Go into the "Firewall Configuration" disable the Security Level, and Disable SELinux
Next we are going to disable a number of system services. Go back to the
setup screen and go into "System Services"
Un-Check or
chkconfig apmd off chkconfig bluetooth off chkconfig cups off chkconfig hidd off chkconfig ip6tables off chkconfig iptables off chkconfig netfs off chkconfig nfslock off chkconfig pcscd off chkconfig portmap off
Installing ZoneMinder 1.24.2
First we need to download files and prepare the system
- Add the RPM Forge repository to CentOS. This will allow the installation of a number of services/applications later on without having to manually install them.
# For i386 CentOS 5.x run: rpm -Uhv http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/i386/rpmforge/RPMS/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm # For 64 bit CentOS 5.x run: rpm -Uhv http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/x86_64/rpmforge/RPMS/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm
- Download the needed files ZoneMinder 1.24.2 and the Cambozola addon
wget http://www2.zoneminder.com/downloads/ZoneMinder-1.24.2.tar.gz wget http://www.zoneminder.com/fileadmin/downloads/cambozola.jar
- Now let's install all the services and programs that will be needed (If you encounter any dependency errors using yum, try running yum clean all and then re-try the install command(s).)
# tip: Copy/paste two lines at a time yum -y install mysql mysql-server mysql-devel php php-gd php-mysql httpd gcc \ pcre-devel gd mod_ssl glib2-devel gcc-c++ ntp gnutls-devel ImageMagick yum -y install libjpeg-devel perl-Archive-Tar perl-MIME-Lite perl-MIME-tools \ perl-Date-Manip perl-LWP-UserAgent-Determined yum -y install perl-PHP-Serialization perl-Device-SerialPort perl-Archive-Zip perl-Sys-Mmap \ perl-Module-Load subversion git yasm ffmpeg-devel ffmpeg alsa-utils
- Now let's update everything within the new CentOS install
yum -y update
- At this point it might be useful to reboot your system. Oddly, sometimes things don't work right unless you reboot after all the updates
reboot -or- shutdown -r now
- After reboot log back into your system
chkconfig httpd on chkconfig mysqld on chkconfig ntpd on service httpd start service mysqld start service ntpd start
- Next we need to extract the contents of the ZoneMinder "tar" file, and then jump into its directory
cd /root/ # Or your work directory for this installation tar -zxvf ZoneMinder-1.24.2.tar.gz cd /root/ZoneMinder-1.24.2
./configure --with-webdir=/var/www/html/zm --with-cgidir=/var/www/cgi-bin --with-webuser=apache --with-webgroup=apache ZM_DB_HOST=localhost ZM_DB_NAME=zm ZM_DB_USER=zm ZM_DB_PASS=zmpass ZM_SSL_LIB=openssl CPPFLAGS="-D__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS"
make
make install
By default ZM_DB_HOST=localhost, ZM_DB_NAME=zm, ZM_DB_USER=zmuser, and ZM_DB_PASS=zmpass.
- Change "zmuser" (if you want) with the user that you will use within MySQL to access the ZoneMinder database
- Change "zmpass" with the password you will be using with the "zmuser" account
Mysql setup for zoneminder
mysql
mysql> create database zm;
mysql> grant CREATE, INSERT, SELECT, DELETE, UPDATE on zm.* to zm@localhost;
mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR zm@localhost=PASSWORD('zmpass');
mysql> exit
>Bye
- Import the tables into the zm database
mysql -u root zm < /root/ZoneMinder-1.24.2/db/zm_create.sql
- Make it so that ZoneMinder will startup automatically when the system is rebooted
cp /root/ZoneMinder-1.24.2/scripts/zm /etc/init.d/ chmod +x /etc/init.d/zm chkconfig zm on
- Add the Cambozola Java web interface
cp /root/cambozola.jar /var/www/html/zm/
- and make sure you have permission to view it from apache:
chown apache:apache /var/www/html/zm/cambozola.jar
- Start ZoneMinder
service zm start
centos 5.5 have logitech orbit af webcamera driver.
plug in the webcamera and reboot
login again
ifconfig and note the ipaddress
logon to another pc and open http://ipaddress-from-aboveline/zm
create anew monitor and add device /dev/video with yuyv and 800X600 or 640x480 or 320x240 or 960x720 or 1600x1200 at 5 frame per sec
change options->images-> PATH_FFMPEG Path to (optional) ffmpeg mpeg encoder (?) /usr/bin/ffmpeg.
if you know how to get pan and tilt working let me know.
