License Activation - error

Post by 14645ApolloDS »

Well, I had the following strange behavior when upgrading 6.x to 7.0:
Looking for valid license to install...failed to install license.
*******ERROR
Failed to install a license - this will prevent your server from functioning properly

Please contact Zimbra to obtain a license

Press RETURN to continue

Activating license...license activated.

Starting servers...done.
--> license activated...???

You still need to do the manual activation per the bug report I posted above.

We had to update ca-certificates to get the curl test URL to work.

the certificate used by the zimbra server requires a new root certificate to work correctly.

FYI - I was having an issue with this activation using CentOS .. Solved it by installing "which".. It was missing from the base OS installation - must not have been needed before this installation script for 7.


yum install which
