I've installed the zoneminder package (had to start MySQL, otherwise it can't even install). I've also started apache after that. But I can't find how to actually get to the web interface. localhost/zm gets me to one of my Drupal installations.

    did you follow the post-install instructions in the readme? More info here: http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Documentation#Introduction – Rinzwind Jul 11 '14 at 14:32
  • Yes, it's running. No, I thought it was more ready to use if it's already in repos. – int_ua Jul 11 '14 at 15:59
  • BTW, where is that readme exactly? It's not part of the package. – int_ua Jul 11 '14 at 16:01

    Ok, it worked to get the admin page, thanks, @Rinzwind Will you add this as an answer? sudo ln -s /etc/zm/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf sudo a2enconf zoneminder – int_ua Jul 12 '14 at 03:57
  • ok :D I got the readme from the source install (did not have Ubuntu on me so could not install the package ;-) ) – Rinzwind Jul 12 '14 at 20:52

For connecting to Apache you need the following commands:

sudo ln -s /etc/zm/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf-available/zoneminder.conf 
sudo a2enconf zoneminder

The 1st one makes a symlink to the configuration of apache and tells it to incude the zoneminder configuration. The 2nd one enables the configuration.
