fresh install, alot of things arent working

Post by nopanic-systems »

Hello all,

after I noticed that my zimbra installation has a high load and I couldnt determine where it comes from, I decide to do a fresh installation and migrate accounts.
This is not working with export/ import. Importing end with blob errors. Only contacts are going.
zimbra to zimbra migration failed with a soap error.
I have external accounts and I load from there. But on the fresh zimbra the intervall getting external account is no longer working. No mails. Only manual sync is running.
on ubuntu 20
It seems zimbra is no longer well tested. zimbra wants to give up the open source edition.
Is it time to move now?

I use zimbra open source edition over 12 years now. What a pity!

Thanks
Stefan

I'm afraid it's the same old refrain, you've really not given much information to go on - how about starting with the Zimbra version, post the full output of the following command:

Code: Select all

zmcontrol -v
Do that for both the old and new servers (if you still have them both). Don't forget we're not mind readers on these forums. ;) How are you attempting the migration, what instructions are you following?
Regards

Hello Bill,

yes you are right! :) I dont expect to solve the issues now....
But I will gladly help:
Release 8.8.15.GA.4179.UBUNTU20.64 UBUNTU20_64 FOSS edition, Patch 8.8.15_P32.
for the import issue I have saved a message:
FormatterServiceException: system failure: error writing document blob

com.zimbra.cs.service.formatter.FormatterServiceException: Early EOF
at com.zimbra.cs.service.formatter.FormatterServiceException.UNKNOWN_ERROR(FormatterServiceException.java:118) ~[zimbrastore.jar:8.8.15_GA_4308]
for the not running task to sync external account in intervall I can not find a log entry.
The old and the new server are on same version.

zimbra to zimbra migration over the admin console that gives a soap error

Do you need more information?

thanks!

I noticed a further issue:
alot of double-bounce messages are sent to wrong postmaster address:
I have the domain:
domain.tld

and the messages are going to the hostname:
postmaster@zim.domain.tld

In the moment I solved it to generate that domain zim.domain.tld and create a postmaster alias, so the messages are sent

in that mail I found:
Out: 452 4.3.1 Insufficient system storage
Out: 503 5.5.1 Error: need MAIL command
Out: 503 5.5.1 Error: need RCPT command
there is enough disk space. Its a fresh installation.

thanks!
Stefan

Hi,

could you detail the way you are handling the zimbra to zimbra migration step by step ?

This way it will allow people to exactly know what you did and maybe help you

Hello all,

for some hours there was an update available. I did a fresh install.
Its really annoying, the admin app isnt accessible!
network timeout with ip access. Im in a nat env.
webapp - no problem.
How could this be?
Why is the code bad or not tested?
Thats brings me to another question: How is it with security?
I have the feeling I can not longer trust zimbra.
Is the app tested against vulnerabilities?

Its really bad advertising.

Maybe its better to move...
Its a pitty, cause I use zimbra so long...

Thanks Stefan
