You should now be able to view the zoneminder interface at ``http://localhost/zm`` (replace localhost with your server IP if you are accessing it remotely)

For most of you Zoneminder will run just fine with the default MySQL settings. There are a couple of settings that may, in time, provide beneficial especially if you have a number of cameras and many events with a lot of files. One setting we recommend is the "innodb_file_per_table" This will be a default setting in MySQL 5.6 but should be added in MySQL 5.5 which comes with Ubuntu 14.04. A description can be found here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/innodb-multiple-tablespaces.html
To add "innodb_file_per_table" edit the my.cnf file:
We recommend you add a "sleep" command just after ``start() {`` in ``/etc/init.d/zoneminder`` to make sure mysql starts before ZoneMinder does. To do this,

One level above you'll now find a deb package matching the architecture of the build host\:::
root@host:~# ls -1 ~/zoneminder\*;
/root/zoneminder_1.26.4-1_amd64.changes
/root/zoneminder_1.26.4-1_amd64.deb
/root/zoneminder_1.26.4-1.dsc
/root/zoneminder_1.26.4-1.tar.gz
The dpkg command itself does not resolve dependencies. That's what high-level interfaces like aptitude and apt-get are normally for. Unfortunately, unlike RPM, there's no easy way to install a separate deb package not contained with any repository.
To overcome this "limitation" we'll use dpkg only to install the zoneminder package and apt-get to fetch all needed dependencies afterwards. Running dpkg-reconfigure in the end will ensure that the setup scripts e.g. for database provisioning were executed.::
