ZoneMinder is a web/net cam web-server-stack web application to create streams of video for security feeds. ZoneMinder supports motion logging, zooming, and other DVR functions.

Installation

root # emerge www-misc/zoneminder

Configuration

ZoneMinder's configuration files are located @ /etc/conf.d/zoneminder & /etc/zm.conf.

Apache

/etc/apache2/vhosts.d/10_zoneminder.conf - Set apache configs.

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/zms "/usr/libexec/zoneminder/cgi-bin/zms"
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/nph-zms "/usr/libexec/zoneminder/cgi-bin/nph-zms"
 
<Directory "/usr/libexec/zoneminder/cgi-bin">
  AllowOverride All
  Options +ExecCGI
  Require all granted
</Directory>
 
Alias /zm "/usr/share/zoneminder/www"
 
<Directory "/usr/share/zoneminder/www">
  Options -Indexes +MultiViews +FollowSymLinks
  AllowOverride All
  Require all granted
</Directory>

/etc/conf.d/apache2 - Set apache configs.

APACHE2_OPTS="-D DEFAULT_VHOST -D INFO -D SSL -D SSL_DEFAULT_VHOST -D LANGUAGE -D PHP5 -D SECURITY"

/etc/zm.conf - Set db password in ZoneMinder configs.

ZM_DB_USER=zmuser
ZM_DB_PASS=changeme

Database

MySQL

ZoneMinder requires a database to run. dev-db/mysql and its equivalent alternatives will suffice.

root # mysql -u root -p
mysql> create database zm;
mysql> \q

Deploy ZoneMinder's database settings:

root # mysql -p zm < /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_create.sql

Create a database user for ZoneMinder to use. Make sure the /etc/zm.conf zm db user & zm db pass settings match the users, and passwords here.

root # mysql -u root -p
mysql> use zm;
mysql> grant select,insert,update,delete on zm.* to 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'changeme';
mysql> flush privileges;
mysql> \q

Init

To start the ZoneMinder service:

root # rc-update add zoneminder
root # rc

Web Interface

The ZoneMinder web interface can be viewed @ http://127.0.0.1/zm/index.php

If you're having problems serving this webapp via php-fpm:

root # ln -s /usr/share/zoneminder/www/ /var/www/localhost/htdocs/zoneminder
