Yea, no idea why the recommended config breaks my Zimbra.
I'm going to list two startups. The first one with the recommended hosts file config and second startup, with only loopback and localhost.localdomain localhost
-=-=-
First, if my hostfile looks like the following, everything works fine. All services start up and I can login.
Code:
[root@muscrat ~]# cat /etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
Now I'm going to insert the second, fully qualified name and IP address line in my hosts file, reboot and do a ps -ef |grep zimbra.
Code:
[root@muscrat ~]# cat /etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.xxx.xxx muscrat.xxxxxxxxxx.com muscrat
[root@muscrat ~]# ps -ef |grep zimbra
zimbra 3347 1 0 11:18 ? 00:00:00 /opt/zimbra/openldap/libexec/slapd -4 -u zimbra -h ldap://:7389/ -f /opt/zimbra/conf/slapd.conf

root 4590 4522 0 11:20 pts/1 00:00:00 grep zimbra
[root@muscrat ~]#
After adding the second, recommended line into my hosts file, the Zimbra services do not start as they should.
Now I get Zimbra back up and running by doing removing the second line from the host file.
Code:
[root@muscrat ~]# cat /etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
#192.168.xxx.xxx muscrat.xxxxxxxxxx.com muscrat
I then reboot, do a ps -ef|grep zimbra and get these results:
Code:
[root@muscrat ~]# ps -ef |grep zimbra

I have no idea why adding the fully qualified name and ip address breaks my Zimbra, but it does.
By the way, ifconfig -a returns the same IP address as I am adding to the second line of my hosts file.
Now I have to figure out why SMTP TLS isn't letting me authenticate via Thunderbird... ;-)
Cheers!
