ZCS 6.0 open source

[nivrutti]

Hi all,

I have installed zcs 6.0 open source on my local machine. After installation I have created two domains and some email ids into the respective domains. Then I have copied the /opt/zimbra folder to another destination to uninstall the zimbra. Again I have installed the zimbra same version on same machine and copied back that zimbra folder under /opt folder. Zimbra backup/restore facility is not available in open source versions. So for testing purpose I have done the above testing but I am getting the error as

/opt/zimbra/bin/ldap: line 56: kill: (10807) - No such process
/opt/zimbra/bin/ldap: line 56: kill: (10807) - No such process
/opt/zimbra/bin/ldap: line 56: kill: (10807) - No such process

Failed to start slapd. Attempting debug start to determine error.

slap_open_listener: failed on ldap://test.mytest.com:389

So let me know is it possible to use previous /opt/zimbra folder into the newly installed zcs. If yes then let me know how to do the same.

zmcontrol stop
ps aux | grep zimbra
kill -9 #
zmcontrol start

See Moving ZCS to Another Server » Zimbra :: Blog ("./install.sh -s" saves you some work, if you didn't use that argument: did you remove the 'fresh' /opt/zimbra folder before you copied /backup/zimbra over it?)

You should do some research by searching through the forums on how to backup the OSS version of Zimbra and how to move it to a new serrver and also take a look at disaster recovery for Zimbra - that will tell you more than you ever wanted to know about recovering a failed server or moving it to a new server.
