Installing zimbra 8.7.11 onto centos7, following these directions;
https://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Zimbra_Rel ... stallation
One weird thing and I don't know if zimbra knows about this but during the install, there are always these errors.
mkdir /opt/zimbra/perl5: Permission denied at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/local/lib.pm line 269
Starting servers...Attempting to create directory /opt/zimbra/perl5
mkdir /opt/zimbra/perl5: Permission denied at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/local/lib.pm line 269.

After install;
# su zimbra

New install, perl problems - bug?
Re: New install, perl problems - bug?
How is it possible that I am the only person experiencing this? I am following the instructions as posted by someone with Zimbra I suppose. I would think that someone at zimbra would be concerned at what is happening here.
I cannot find an answer anywhere and cannot move forward installing the server.
HELP!

Hi Zim,
Which Operating System are you using? The error it's saying not having enough permissions. Really weird.

Re: New install, perl problems - bug?
Hi, thank you for the reply.
I'm using Centos7 with the initial packages installed and the OS fully updated. Nothing else on it, it was a minimal install and would be dedicated to zimbra.

Re: New install, perl problems - bug?
I tried again, this time, creating the /opt/zimbra/perl5 directory manually, making it full read/write (777) and the owner, zimbra.
The installer completed this time however, there is nothing in the perl5 directory so????
The new server works perfectly, receiving and sending.
Thanks for your time on this, hope what I've posted can help you find the problem and fix it.
