Topic: Internet access to server in LAN

[tviles]

OK rebooted and using IE to browse to http://192.168.0.153/zm and I get this:

Could not connect to database: Access denied for user 'zmuser'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

yum enablerepo=dag localinstall *.rpm

Sorry, as you discovered the command I suggested had a typo (which I fixed in the original post), it should have said
yum --enablerepo=dag localinstall *.rpm

It also implied that the dag repo was configured on your server, about which you have since discovered/been advised.

It's ALL good! I learned something. I need to capture some errors I am getting now on boot up and post later after work today.

Zoneminder bombed out when it was started.
Bad sql database was created, or was it created somehow from a previous install of smeserver-zoneminder rpm. My knowledge is limited here, given this is a fresh install of  7.3 and ZM, lets proceed at your own risk. A warning to backup now if you have any data of value!

Create a new database, from root

stop zoneminder service
# /etc/init.d/zoneminder stop

destroy zm database
# mysqladmin -f drop zm

create a new zm database
# mysql mysql < /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_create.sql

and restart zoneminder service
# /etc/init.d/zoneminder start

try and login now.

Thanks I will move capture card over and follow instructions for new database this evening.

I can login to ZM now! It's telling me to upgrade to a newer version already. No video coming thru yet so I must have more reading to do.

Sweet I have video.

It's telling me to upgrade to a newer version already.

No, that won't work. I should have disabled this in the rpm. Will do in the next release later in the year.

for now go to the zoneminder Options > System and uncheck "ZM_CHECK_FOR_UPDATES" and restart ZM.

Sweet I have video.

Well done & welcome aboard.

The zoneminder rpms should be available here after the mirrors sync
