ONVIF cameras

If you want to use ONVIF cameras

  • Install perl-Data-UUID (from Slackbuilds)
  • Install other Perl modules via CPan:
# perl -MCPAN -e 'install Class::Std::Fast, Data::Dump, SOAP::WSDL::Transport::HTTP, IO::Socket::Multicast'

Database

# mysql -u root -p < /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_create.sql 
# mysql -u root -p 
      grant select,insert,update,delete,lock tables,alter,create on zm.* to 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'zmpass'; #NOTE: zmuser and zmpass is found in /etc/zm.conf
      select User,Host from mysql.user;  #Check and make zmuser was created
      quit

The SELECT command (above) should reply:
