Enabling and Starting ZoneMinder:
systemctl enable zoneminder
Note: It came back with:
Synchronizing state of zoneminder.service with SysV init with /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install…
Executing /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable zoneminder
systemctl start zoneminder
Note: It didn’t come back with anything re: prompts. Probably OK, though.
Edit TimeZone
nano /etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini
Search for [Date] (Ctrl + w then type Date and press Enter) and change date.timezone for your time zone, see [this](http://php.net/manual/en/timezones.php). Don’t forget to remove the ; from in front of date.timezone
Configured so it looks like this:
[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
; http://php.net/date.timezone
date.timezone = America/Los_Angeles
Reload Apache Service
systemctl reload apache2
Making sure ZM is running:

Optional API Check

NOTE: At the end of the installation, there was a comment about:
PPA install may need some tweaking of ZMS_PATH in ZoneMinder options.

Note: I didn’t do anything, but may need to come back to this after installing a camera.
