So I am finally able to build Zoneminder 1.24.2 using BSD patches or just making a few mods to the svn 1.24.3 version (I can build either of them without a problem now). You can build Zoneminder with either shared memory or mapped memory functionality. I cannot get either method to work properly.
SHARED MEMORY METHOD PROBLEMS If I use shared memory I get: [Can't get shared memory id '7a6d0001', 1: No such file or directory] Question: what would be a good shared memory ID for Mac OS X here? Do I need to point the shared memory to a specific path in Mac? MAPPED MEMORY METHOD PROBLEMS If I build for mmap it isn't ever creating the zm.mmap.1 by itself [Can't open memory map file '/mmap/zm.mmap.1': No such file or directory] I just created a /mmap directory and gave it wide open permissions for testing purposes but it doesn't ever create a zm.mmap.1 but if I do touch /mmap/zm.mmap.1 while zm is running then stop zm...it removes it automatically. Here is a link to my prerequisite setup and build HOWTO: http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=16801 The svn version which will be 1.24.3 is pretty easy to modify to get it to compile properly. I actually think modding the 1.24.3 version is easier. I have the 1.24.2 step by step with BSD patches listed in the HOWTO. Both versions are acting the same way about either shared memory or mapped memory. I would really like to get Zoneminder working on Mac and at this point I am probably willing to pay someone to help me finish porting this over. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
