Zimbra Forums

ahem, I happen to have a lot of experence with destroying data ;) Here's what I would do: BURN YOUR DAMAGED INSTALL TO A CD and get it out of the way... Install that backup on a test machine and mess around. Then try to install over it. I'm pretty sure it won't fix all of your problems, but I think ...

Hey phoenix, I don't think zmfixperms fixes the issue yet. I had that problem. I think I chmod'ed it to 777 just to get it out of the way. Nabmed, Keep in mind that if tomcat isn't running, that there are other reasons why tomcat won't start. For instance, If you do: >su -zimbra >mysql mysql if it g...

Try to install again.
If you want to see if LDAP is running prior to install, you can

>ps auxww | grep slapd
or

>telnet localhost 389
If both return null values, then you're good.

Have you had a failed install before?
If so, I would run ./install.sh -u
and uninstall it totally, and then reinstall.
Do you know if you have SELinux installed?

A little note to add to Phoenix's comment, if you used the very first build of the 3.1 release, it's possible you might have some LDAP problems. If you have a backup of your original (now zimbra.bak), i'd replace the ldap data in the zimbra.bak folder. Just a heads up. By the way, all of your messag...

Hi TheLight,

Phoenix is totally right.

Zimbra comes with its own postfix, proc, clamav, and spamassasin. If you already have one of them installed and running, your going to have a conflict.

Just a heads up.

Hi Dee, It defenetly sounds like you got some DNS issues. zimbra.ourdomain.local mail.ourdomain.com I'm curious, could users access your domain inside your network using mail.ourdomain.com before the upgrade? Like I said, it looks like a DNS problem. Are DNS Lookups enabled? Are you using port mappi...
