i had the same problem when initially installing it on centos4.1

my hosts file read:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain mail.mydomain.com

as the installation script said, i removed mail.mydomain.com from that line and moved it to its own so it looked like this:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
127.0.0.1 mail.mydomain.com mail

installation then started but when starting zimbra-tomcat i got many errors stating that mail.mydomain.com couldn't be resolved. this is because the fqdn host name (except localhost.localdomain) has to be a WAN/LAN ip address and not the loopback address.

is this what you meant by your post?
