1. If this is a new installation, you will need to create a MySQL
   database for zoneminder to use
   (see https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/MySQL/Startup_Guide).
   E.g., when logged into mysql as root,
     mysql> CREATE DATABASE \`zm\`;
     mysql> grant select,insert,alter,update,lock tables,delete on zm.* to 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'zmpass';
     mysql> flush privileges;
   Once you completed that you should execute the following:
     mysql -p < /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_create.sql

2. Set your database settings in /etc/zm.conf, including above zmpass

3. Configure apache to use zoneminder, see /usr/share/doc/zoneminder*/10_zoneminder.conf
   for an example configuration snippet.

4. Enable PHP in your webserver configuration,
   enable short_open_tags in php.ini (likely on by default now)
   set the time zone in php.ini,
   and restart/reload the webserver.

5. Start the zoneminder daemon:
     /etc/init.d/zoneminder start

6. Finally point your browser to http://your.webserver/zm

If you are upgrading, you will need to run the zmupdate.pl script: 
   /usr/bin/zmupdate.pl
