authentication failed for zimbra

[jeepville]

I did a restore on ubuntu 6.06 last night with 4.5.9

Fresh install of ubuntu 6.06

I am trying to do a backup so i can upgrade to 5.0.2.

The admin console shows none of the network edition stuff like the connector or the backup page. So I tried backing up from command line. and I am getting.
Error occurred: authentication failed for zimbra

Any help would be great!!

So you installed a clean copy of the O/S, but then how did you restore Zimbra ? Did you perform a dummy install of ZM, remove it, and then restore your backup ? Please explain full steps taken so that we can help you.

As you are a NE customer have you raised a ticket with the support team ?

yea i did a clean install of the os.

then i did a dummy install.

then i did a restore with all of my data.

Support got back with me last night and said my ldap password got messed up and that was causing that. He fixed it and it backed up.

So I upgraded to 5.0.2 and the upgrade went smoothly except I have lots of errors in the admin console.

when i click on mail queue or manage servers. I get this error.

Message: system failure: exception during auth {RemoteManager: mail.conneragency.com->zimbra@mail.blahblah.com:22} Error code: service.FAILURE Details:soap:Receiver

UPDATE

I found this in another thread and it seems to have fixed the webadmin problems.

Details:soap:Receiver

First Solution:

1) they have asked us following set of commands
2) su -zimbra
3) zmsshkeygen
4) zmupdateauthkeys
5) restart zimbra

That worked.

Now how do i get tasks and IM installed on the server? It skipped them on upgrade i am guessing because they weren't installed in 4.5.9 (because they weren't available.) FIXED!! They are enabled in COS.

I Guess everything is working now. So its time to install a valid signed cert.
