The server can't start because it cannot bind to tickus.com:7025 The most likely cause is another server on 7025, or a problem resolving "tickus.com" to a local interface. There are other problems (library problems, etc) that might cause this, but since you say it worked until recently, it's most likely one of those two.

Try this -- run these in a shell and post the output:

1) netstat -an | grep LISTEN | grep 7025

2) host tickus.com

3) /sbin/ifconfig

I have checked many times to see if anything is using port 7025 and cant find anything. Im just baffled by this.

running #1 returns nothing.

running #2 returns:
nick@mail:~/zcs$ host tickus.com
tickus.com has address 12.226.35.145
tickus.com mail is handled by 10 tickus.com.

nick@mail:~/zcs$ host mail.tickus.com
mail.tickus.com has address 192.168.1.103
mail.tickus.com mail is handled by 10 mail.tickus.com.

running #3 returns:

I also tried this and that didnt fix the problem either. The server seems to be recieving mail ok, its just I cant get into the interface.

Make sure you have a backup, and try rerunning the ./zmsetup.pl script.

My zimbra logs are showing this:

Mar 30 07:37:22 mail postfix/lmtp[26474]: 4FA5A11D190: to=<email@tickus.com>, relay=none, delay=217590, status=deferred (connect to mail.tickus.com[192.168.1.103]: Connection refused)

lmtp runs on port 7025 right. zimbra not being able to bind to that port is driving me crazy since nothing is running on it.

the problem seems to be that your server is trying to bind to "tickus.com" even though that isn't a local interface.

If you do a 'zmprov gcf zimbraLmtpBindAddress' what does it return? If it returns tickus.com, trying doing a zmprov mcf to change it to be 'mail.tickus.com' and see if that fixes your problem.

try setting up an entry in /etc/hosts for "tickus.com" that points to your 192... address, then do a 'tomcat stop; tomcat start' -- that should be enough to get your server to boot up....once the server boots up you should be able to run zmprov.

Thank you so much Tim. You the man. That fixed my problem. Some reason I set LMTP to bind to that address rather then my local one.

Thanks again very much. Problem fixed.
