Installation

Requirements

yum --enablerepo=smecontribs,smedev install smeserver-extrarepositories-zmrepo smeserver-extrarepositories-remi-safe
signal-event yum-modify
yum install smeserver-php-scl --enablerepo=smecontribs
config show php54 PhpModule disabled
config show php55 PhpModule disabled 
config show php56 PhpModule enabled
config show php70 PhpModule disabled
config show php71 PhpModule disabled
signal-event php-update

Install Zoneminder from the zmrepo

yum install smeserver-zoneminder zoneminder --enablerepo=zmrepo,smecontribs,smedev,smetest
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.

	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

Next you need to adjust the existing (from above) custom template (make a backup copy first):

sed -i '/Alias/d' /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/98zoneminder

Followed by:

signal-event webapps-update

to activate all changes. 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.
