1. I am new to Linux, I have download mySql-Server.rmp and mysql-Client.rpm. I have installed them but dont know where they have been installed. And how to configure mysql in Eclipse with the Zimbra Source Code.
2. I run the Server and Client build.xml files, but due to some errors, build is not successful. Have I to change any configuration. And by deplying these files, will zimbra start running.
3. And what to do with the UserServlet (in the service folder). Can I call it directly from a jsp page or from a brower. (I do that but the ZimbraZerver project donot access files of ZimbraCommon).
I ll really appreciate your reply.

1. the rpm's are binary packages. If you are new to Linux and source code, you may just want to stick with them, rather then build from scratch. I'm a project manager with several huge code bases, 15 years of Linux experience, 10 years of IT consulting, and I find the Zimbra build process annoying at times ;-)
2. The build not working means that something is installed wrong. Check the CVS build instructions (or rather the SVN install instructions).
3. The UserServlet is for exposing information to the ZimbraWebClient, and providing information in other applications. If you want to deploy a JSP, take a look at the Zimlet functionality. NOTE: You do not have to build Zimbra to be able to deploy Zimlet's and JSPS.
4.There is a Zimbra Taglib. I am not sure if the Taglib communicates directly with the Zibrastore.jar proccess, or if it also uses the SOAP interface. There is also the zclient lib, which may be closer to what you are looking for. I wrote up a quick guide on getting zclient to work on the wiki.
