Contrib 9:
smeserver-zoneminder
The latest version of smeserver-zoneminder is available in the SME repository, click on the version number(s) for more information.


Description

ZoneMinder is intended for use in single or multi-camera video security applications, including commercial or home CCTV, theft prevention and child, family member or home monitoring and other domestic care scenarios such as nanny cam installations. It supports capture, analysis, recording, and monitoring of video data coming from one or more video or network cameras attached to a Linux system. ZoneMinder also support web and semi-automatic control of Pan/Tilt/Zoom cameras using a variety of protocols. It is suitable for use as a DIY home video security system and for commercial or professional video security and surveillance. It can also be integrated into a home automation system via X.10 or other protocols.

This contrib is for IP Camera's only.

Installation

yum --enablerepo=smecontribs,smetest install smeserver-extrarepositories-zmrepo smeserver-extrarepositories-rpmfusion smeserver-extrarepositories-epel

yum install smeserver-zoneminder zoneminder --enablerepo=zmrepo,smecontribs,epel,rpmfusion

You can choose to activate one of the php version as long as it is at least >=56 

yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-extrarepositories-zmrepo smeserver-extrarepositories-remi-safe  smeserver-extrarepositories-rpmfusion smeserver-extrarepositories-epel
signal-event yum-modify
yum install smeserver-php-scl --enablerepo=smecontribs

config setprop php56 PhpModule enabled
config setprop php70 PhpModule disabled
config setprop php71 PhpModule disabled
config setprop php72 PhpModule disabled
config setprop php73 PhpModule disabled
signal-event php-update

From a fresh install it should be that easy: 

yum install smeserver-zoneminder zoneminder --enablerepo=zmrepo,smecontribs

signal-event zoneminder-update
config set UnsavedChanges no

If you already have few packages depending on ffmpeg, you might need to force the install as zoneminder need a newer ffmpeg. We have built a compatibility package, but this needs two more steps : 

wget https://mirror.canada.pialasse.com/releases/9/smetest/x86_64/RPMS/ffmpeg-compat_0.10.16-0.10.16-2.el6.sme.x86_64.rpm
yum install ffmpeg-compat_0.10.16-0.10.16-2.el6.sme.x86_64.rpm --enablerepo=smecontribs,zmrepo
yum install smeserver-zoneminder zoneminder --enablerepo=zmrepo,smecontribs 
rpm -ivh https://mirror.canada.pialasse.com/releases/9/ffmpeg-compat_0.10.16-0.10.16-2.el6.sme.x86_64.rpm 
signal-event zoneminder-update 
config set UnsavedChanges no

NFR Acces Zoneminder via sub domain

Instead of accessing the Zoneminder portal at http://myserver.com/zm, it is possible to change this to e.g. https://cctv.myserver.com. For this the easiest and comfortable way is to use the webapps-common contrib.


Important.png Note:
This part assumes you have followed the complete above installation procedure.



Install the webapps-common contrib according to the Contrib page. Then (as per example for https://cctv.myserver.com) issue the following as root: 

db domains set cctv.myserver.com domain Description "CCTV" Content Primary \
Nameservers internet TemplatePath WebAppVirtualHost \
DocumentRoot /usr/share/zoneminder/www RequireSSL enabled
signal-event domain-create cctv.myserver.com

Now you can reach your zoneminder portal at https://cctv.myserver.com

Uninstall

service zoneminder stop
yum --setopt=tsflags=noscripts remove zoneminder smeserver-zoneminder

do not forget to remove the domain you created if you did 

signal-event domain-delete cctv.myserver.com
signal-event webapps-update

Now to cleanup everything you may want to perform the usual post-upgrade and reboot events. Apart from the php-scl and webapps contribs, all that is left is the MySQL database zm and the logfiles. It's up to you what to do with them.

ZoneMinder clients

By default, ZoneMinder can be accessed via the webinterface. There are also 3rd party client applications available.
