Default zmmailboxdctl doesn't start
I could not access my mail when I browsed to my website. page could not displayed. I can not telnet to localhost on port 80 or 110, port 25 and everything else works just fine. when I try to start zimbra and it begins its process of starting the mailbox, I get this:

mailbox Stopped
zmmailboxdctl is not running

I also tail the output of /opt/zimbra/log/zmmailboxd.out and come up with this

imbra server reserving server socket port=110 bindaddr=null ssl=false
Zimbra server reserving server socket port=995 bindaddr=null ssl=true
Fatal error: exception while binding to ports
java.net.BindException: Address already in use
at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketBind(Native Method)

at com.zimbra.common.util.NetUtil.bindServerSocket(Ne tUtil.java:122)
at com.zimbra.common.util.NetUtil.bindSslTcpServerSoc ket(NetUtil.java:51.

I am in the process of actually migrating off this zimbra server onto another one but need to do a few things in some users mailboxes first including my own! any assistance would be appreciated. -Billy

Does the other server have the same name as your current one ? If it does then shutdown the new server and try restarting ZCS on your old one.

If that is not the case, then shutdown ZCS on your current server, make sure no old Zimbra processes are running and they try starting again.

Have you made any DNS changes at all ?

The servers are completely seperate on two different subnets and to entirely different networks. The one in question is tied directly to the internet behind no firewall and has been working for many months just fine until I had to reboot it. Everything but that service starts ok.

belowzerotech.com mail is handled by 10 mx1.belowzerotech.com.
belowzerotech.com mail is handled by 20 mx2.belowzerotech.com.

the reason why I changed the MX record to mx1 is because this box is MX2 and is not working. SMTP works fine so it is accepting mail, just not delivering it nor can I bring up the login page in the browser or telnet to it on port 80

Your hosts file is incorrect, it should contain only the following:

Code:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 
207.178.132.60 mx2.belowzerotech.com mx2
fix that and then run the commands you were asked for earlier and post the output here. Please enclose the output of each command (separately) with 'quotes' - highlight some text then hit the code button (the # symbol) above the edit box.

Is your Zimbra server actually on a public IP?

cat /etc/hosts

Code:
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
207.178.132.60 mx2.belowzerotech.com mx2
cat /etc/resolv.conf

Code:
search com
/*
#nameserver 207.178.128.20
#nameserver 207.178.128.21
*/
the server is its own DNS server at the moment.

yes for now it is on a public IP, I have my new Zimbra server running behind a PIX firewall and it is doing static map. I am trying to get this one working again before I move this behind the firewall. I am really close to blowing the whole OS out and starting over, but there is mail on here I need, plus I would like to figure the issue out =/

Thanks again for any help. I really do appreciate it. -Billy

also if getting SSH credentials would help you as well as myself I don't have a problem in doing that. I can PM them to you.
