mrdebian · Post by **mrdebian** » Fri Jun 11, 2010 12:59 pm

Hello,
Does anyone know if there is any link with a working Zimbra Colloboration Suite (Open Source) virtual machine? Either on Vmware, KVM, XEN etc are fine.
Thanks

Just found it in case that anyone is interested in. You can request a download from the following url:

Virtual machine with Zimbra installed
Downloaded and tested, works fine.

also pretty sure Zimbra/Vmware will release appliances in the next release (if I read pm.zimbra.com correctly)

An official trial image can be found on the VMware Virtual Appliance Marketplace. An image that is suitable for production use will be available towards the end of Q2.

So if I also read that right, is this why we have no 6.0.7 patch yet? Because they are messing with making the appliance? So in the mean time I'm losing clients by the day because sync with HTC Android phones (Like the new EVO thats selling like crazy) doesn't work outa the box, but is already patched in 6.0.7 :S
I hate zimbra's patch management..

yeah I'm pretty sure the appliance making stuff was done a while ago - you can see from the updates in other threads that other bugs where blocking the release. The changes required to make a decent appliance would have been pretty minimal. In fact if I was going to go down this route, I would just build one from scratch, as I prefer to have my linux boxes set up a certain way.
