Hiya,
Firstly, I appreciate the help, and I am hoping these experiences will eventually enrich the project and make it easier for those that follow.
su - zimbra

tomcat start
mysql.server start &

(have to control-z that)
zmcontrol stop (just to make sure)

zmcontrol start

- all come up "done"
zmcontrol status

antispam Running

antivirus Running

ldap Running

logger Running

mailbox Stopped

mta Running

snmp Running

spell Running

WHy are you doing it that way? Specifically, why start tomcat before sql, when tomcat won't run without sql?
su - zimbra

zmmailboxctl stop

zmmailboxctl start

sh -x zmmailboxctl status
post the output of the last command.

ok, done that:
202:~ zimbra$ sh -x zmmailboxctl status

+ BASE=/opt/zimbra

+ SCRIPTS=tomcat mysql.server

+ STATUS=0

+ '[' tomcat = mysql.server ']'

+ /opt/zimbra/bin/tomcat status

+ R=1

+ '[' 1 -ne 0 ']'

+ STATUS=1

+ '[' mysql.server = mysql.server ']'

+ /opt/zimbra/bin/mysqladmin status

+ R=1

+ '[' 1 -ne 0 ']'

+ STATUS=1

+ exit 1
Does that help at all?

Kill your mysql process, and restart it with mysql.server - if the mysqladmin returns an errror after that, we'll have to reset your password:
zmcontrol stop

zmlocalconfig -e zimbra_mysql_password=newpasswd

zmlocalconfig -e mysql_root_password=newrootpasswd
edit /opt/zimbra/bin/mysql.server
Change

'start')

# --defaults-file must be first argument

cd ${mysql_directory};

${mysql_directory}/bin/mysqld_safe

--defaults-file=${mysql_mycnf}

--ledir=${mysql_directory}/bin &

;;
to

'start')

# --defaults-file must be first argument

cd ${mysql_directory};

${mysql_directory}/bin/mysqld_safe

--defaults-file=${mysql_mycnf}

--skip-grant-tables

--ledir=${mysql_directory}/bin &

;;
su - zimbra

mysql.server start
mysql mysql

update user set password=PASSWORD('newpasswd') where user='zimbra';

update user set password=PASSWORD('newrootpasswd') where user='root';

flush privileges

exit
mysql.server stop

Change mysql.server back (remove --skip-grant-tables)

mysql.server start

mysqladmin status

Sweet, all good now :)
Ok, now onto configuration... oh, and at some point I will have to get this autostarting if it does end up meeting my needs, which it does look like it will :)
Once again - Thanks!!!
