Default Continuing reinstallation frustrations

Your hosts file should say
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
65.35.107.38 harlow.homeip.net harlow
Sorry I dropped off the radar screen. My day job always interferes...

Since I am behind a local router, it occurred to me that I might ought to be using my local IP address, which happens to be 192.168.1.151, rather than the address assigned externally by my ISP. I modified /etc/hosts accordingly, but it made no difference. I still get the same messages; right after it starts LDAP services, it bails.

Anyway, I tried the whole deal again. I ran install-mac.sh -u, then did a new installation from the .dmg file. It always ends by noting that the upgrade failed, even though I have uninstalled the previous version completely (since it was only a test installation, I even blew away /opt/zimbra (deleted) and /var/mail/zimbra, to try to erase its memory of previous lives). Somewhere in this system, it still has some record of a previous installation, and I suspect that this is the root of my troubles.

I am stumped, but I'd like to get this thing up and running again. Suggestions?

Thanks
