Topic: Zoneminder on SME 8 b7

[Shilotsugu]

Hi,
I'd like to get ZoneMinder up and running on my 8b7 server with a minimal of hassle and hunting around for packages. There are many older topics with people running zm, but are pretty spare in details when it comes to what steps were actually done. In the most recent thread I could find (http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=48115.0), someone had installed dependencies manually, it was suggested that it could be done with yum.

However, this is the result when I tried:

Code: [Select]

# yum --enablerepo=sme7contribs --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-zoneminder

 * updates: mirrors.kernel.org

No package smeserver-zoneminder available.
Nothing to do

What am I missing? I'm about to try the manual route, but the setup.txt on http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/smeserver/contribs/rmitchell/smeserver/contribs/zoneminder/ suggests other packages that are not found there.

As long as I'm asking for ponies, it would be nice if someone familiar with the process update the wiki.

Thanks

OK I went looking for you and searched the forums on zoneminder (which you could have done) and came up with the following.
I actually searched the forums on zoneminder and the author sognenovski for more specific results re these packages

smeserver-zoneminder is not in the smecontribs repo, the advice of cactus in 
http://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,48115.msg238558.html#msg238558
appears to be incorrect

You need to manually download or wget the zoneminder and smeserver-zoneminder packages to an empty folder on your sme server
from
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/smeserver/contribs/rmitchell/smeserver/contribs/zoneminder/

To get other dependencies you will need to enable other repos, ie the repos where those dependencies are available eg
dag and/or others, (some investigation or experimentation may be required to ascertain which repos have the dependency packages you require)
refer to wiki for how to do this ie
http://wiki.contribs.org/Category:Yum_Repository

Following this as a guide
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/smeserver/contribs/rmitchell/smeserver/contribs/zoneminder/zoneminder_setup.txt

This worked on a sme7.5.1 box

Setup the dag repository
http://wiki.contribs.org/Dag

I did this basic install of the two main packages, but others are needed, see this forum post
http://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,38451.0.html

The following needs to be expanded as per above thread, no more time at present to go further with this just now.

login as root
then do
mkdir -p /opt/zoneminder
cd /opt/zoneminder
wget http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/smeserver/contribs/rmitchell/smeserver/contribs/zoneminder/smeserver-zoneminder-0.1-4.el4.sme.noarch.rpm

ls -al
(to check files have been downloaded)

yum localinstall smeserver-zoneminder* zoneminder* --enablerepo=dag

Is this ok [y/N]:

Followed by
signal-event post-upgrade
signal-event reboot

That should get you going.
Depending what other packages and modules you want to install will determine what happens next, but the basic idea will be the same as above.
Note there are issues with the bttv packages, you require the correct kernel-module-bttv package for the kernel version you are running, so "someone" will need to recompile those as each new kernel is released. The ones on the download link are very old.

I'm not sure whether some of the above "issues" are automatically resolved when using sme8, so let us know how you go and a wiki article can be created.
It will need a maintainer though to build the new modules whenever a kernel update occurs, unless they can be obtained from elsewhere on the Internet.

I suggest you read thoroughly all of these threads (all pages) for setup tips and usage advice etc

and
http://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,38451.0.html

Probably this thread is the most useful (read all pages for good install & usage info)
http://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,38451.0.html
It seems to have the "latest" install info, so the above steps could be modified accordingly.

ls -al

cd to that folder and do
yum --enablerepo=dag localinstall *.rpm

enabling the dag repo will allow yum to also install any dependencies including the perl-Device-SerialPort dependency rpm

yum localinstall smeserver-zoneminder* zoneminder* --enablerepo=dag

Note on a sme 7.5.1 this rpm mentioned in the earlier zoneminder posts is already installed
[root@master ~]# rpm -q perl-MIME-Lite
perl-MIME-Lite-3.027-1.el4.rf

Also the current kernel  (on sme7.5.1) is
[root@master ~]# uname -r
2.6.9-89.31.1.EL

So the kernel-module-bttv package is wrong and needs to be recompiled or obtained elsewhere

Mary,

So much excellent information all in one place, thank you.

OK I went looking for you and searched the forums on zoneminder (which you could have done) and came up with the following.

Your efforts are greatly appreciated. I only have a limited amount of time to allocate to SME (including chasing rabbits down forum topics) so having it all together like the HowTos or contribs is a great time saver. Although I previously read some of the posts you mentioned, I probably would have missed something like adding Dag.

Here is the attempt (I also tried "yum --enablerepo=sme7contribs --enablerepo=smecontribs --enablerepo=dag localinstall *.rpm" with same results):

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.

I suspect that the newer sme8 version may have something to do with 'missing' mysql library dependency.
[root@#### /]# find -name *libmysqlclient*
./usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient_r.so.15
./usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.15.0.0
./usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.15
./usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient_r.so.15.0.0

Any way to get it to recognize the newer version, or should this go to a bug tracker?

I probably would have missed something like adding Dag.

So when you added the dag repo, did you point it at EL4 or EL5 rpms ?
Show output of
db yum_repositories show dag

For sme7   
BaseURL=http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/$basearch/dag

For sme8 refer
http://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,47524.msg237671.html#msg237671

To set dag up for sme8 do
/sbin/e-smith/db yum_repositories set dag repository \
Name 'Dag - EL5' \
BaseURL 'http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/$basearch/dag' \

[Shilotsugu]

I set it to EL4 as that was in the linked wiki page (http://wiki.contribs.org/Dag). I've updated it with EL5 as mentioned and tried again.

Code: [Select]

[root#### zoneminder]# db yum_repositories show dag

You probably need to search for that and install it in order to get zoneminder working on sme8, otherwise update zoneminder rpm to use newer dependencies.

I have not tried it on sme8 but a quick search took me here
http://serverfault.com/questions/164759/need-libmysqlclient-so-14
which refers to
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/12470926/dir/redhat_el_4/com/mysqlclient14-4.1.22-1.el4.remi.i386.rpm.html
which led to the RPM here
ftp://mirror.switch.ch/pool/1/mirror/mysql/Downloads/MySQL-4.1/MySQL-shared-standard-4.1.22-0.rhel4.i386.rpm

download the above rpm to a empty folder and do
yum localinstall MySQL-shared-standard-*.rpm

It may be a bit of trial and error needed, so google on libmysqlclient.so.14 as there are many search result answers
Later when I hook up my sme8 test machine I will look at it, but busy at present
Maybe others have a better answer, or an answer based on their practical experience.

I tried to install the latest ZoneMinder
These were my steps
Installed SME Site Maker to setup the /opt/surveillance directory for web view::
Then I installed all these dependancies with

Code: [Select]

yum --enablerepo=* --disablerepo=smedev --disablerepo=smetest --disablerepo=smeupdates-testing My repos are the regular ones with additional "Dag - EL5; ATRpms - EL5; sme7contribs; FWS".
The dependancies were :::
ffmpeg (only install through dag. Enabling dag and atrpms will result in missing dependancies, so don't use the above code to install ffmpeg.)
gcc
gcc-c++
dkms
perl-Device-SerialPort
perl-Archive-Zip
perl-Email-Date-Format
perl-MIME-Lite

Then I went to

Code: [Select]

smesmand setup the directory with a mysql database
Once I download the ZoneMinder file from the site

Code: [Select]

wget http://www2.zoneminder.com/downloads/ZoneMinder-1.25.0.tar.gzfrom there I tar -xvzf in the root directory and

Code: [Select]

./configure --with-webdir=/opt/surveillance --with-cgidir=/var/www/cgi-bin --with-webuser=apache --with-webgroup=apache ZM_DB_HOST=localhost ZM_DB_NAME=zoneminder ZM_DB_USER=zoneminder ZM_DB_PASS=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --with-extralibs="-L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib/mysql" --with-mysql='/usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlyclient.so.15' CXXFLAGS="-D__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS"
Everything goes so smooth until

Code: [Select]

checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... no
configure: error: zm requires libmysqlclient.a
Any ideas anyone? From my understanding it is looking for any libmysqlclient, and the libmysqlclient.so.15 file is in /usr/lib/mysql
This is a fresh SME 8 install, and I am wondering will it even work on SME 7?
Thanks in advance

got a little further

Used

yum --enablerepo=* --disablerepo=smedev --disablerepo=smetest --disablerepo=smeupdates-testing install mysql-devel

I think that is all to it. After the above steps,

Code: [Select]

./configure --with-webdir=/opt/surveillance --with-cgidir=/var/www/cgi-bin --with-webuser=apache --with-webgroup=apache ZM_DB_HOST=localhost ZM_DB_NAME=zoneminder ZM_DB_USER=zoneminder ZM_DB_PASS=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --with-extralibs="-L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib/mysql" --with-mysql='/usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlyclient.so.15' CXXFLAGS="-D__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS" ZM_SSL_LIB=openssl  --enable-mmap=no
and then do a make and make install
Again, that installs it into my /opt/surveillance which was setup previously with SME Site Maker. Be sure to have a db password already generated before starting Site Maker. This is a fresh SME 8 testing machine, and I don't know if something has been broken with all the dependencies that were installed.

I am having another issue now.
I have a main SME 8 server as a gateway and another SME 8 server for only video surveillance. I set up a hostname called security.mtrosemedia.tk to the Remote IP for the internal server. That works just fine when going directly to the site, but trying to go to security.mtrosemedia.tk/surveillance doesn't work.
I would like a way to be able to access the internal server clearly without so much being forwarded. Right now I have ports forwarded to the internal IP port 22 in order to get ssh tunnel. I have the hostname setup to pass the security.mtrosemedia.tk name. And my logic is telling me to setup a proxy pass directive to get to the security.mtrosemedia.tk/surveillance name. Is that right? All the other pages revert back to my main mtrosemedia.tk server. So, security.mtrosemedia.tk/webmail or /server-manager opens my main server's pages and not the security surveillance server pages. Any ideas?

[Shilotsugu]

Thanks to Mary, the program itself is installed and functioning. However, Ive been frustrated (yes, I'm slow) with trying to get the program to recognize the video feed. At first it would seem like a ZM issue, but I still get a blank screen after following the advices on ZM's how-to page. Now I am wondering if there isn't some hidden setting on the server itself that I'm missing. I'd like to try newburns' method, but need to uninstall the current program. Because of the specialized steps used above, is there a particular order I should follow to remove this properly?

[newburns]

Which version does Mary have functioning? Do you have a link to those posts? My method should allow for the latest version. I'm no developer so I was hoping some of the more seasoned users would respond to those posts.

[Shilotsugu]

I've been struggling to get this working with nothing to show except for an expensive camera collecting dust in my garage. There have been plenty of claims that this setup works (easy-peasy), but I suspect the process is really made arcane as possible and the steps just vague enough so that they can continue to have bragging rights. The particular steps to get this version (1.22.3) "working" are listed in the comments above, but both ZM and SME have since changed versions again - so I doubt the advice in this thread is valid any longer. While following this thread may likely satisfy the literal definition of "get ZM working on 8b7", it doesn't mean there will be a useable solution in the end. I wish I could stay positive about this, but there are too many time-wasting rabbit holes and roadblocks of outdated advice and conflicting versions, that it's just not worth it anymore.

I might as well buy a dedicated windows machine and load it with the recording software that came with the camera. At least I know that will work. What a waste of time and money.
