IMAP proxy port change failed

[InternetGuy]

For testing purposes, I just tried changing the IMAP proxy port from 143 to 144. The global config screen confirms the port change, but after a full Zimbra restart, the active port is still 143. What did I miss?

That depends on whether you have the imap proxy service running, do you? Please don't enable it if you only have a single server running, things will fail.

According to that screen everything but the proxy service is running.

Now that I'm there, I see "143". I changed it to 144 and IMAP moved to the new port as expected. I take it the other setting is a global value?

Thanks for the help kind sir!

The 'other setting' is for users that have a multi-server install and need to use a proxy server for forwarding requests to zimbra.

Hi,

I have wrongly installed the imap/proxy service for a single server installation.

What I have to do to disable this service? Is it sufficient to remove to check from the Zimbra Admin Interface in the server section?
Thanks

To make sure it's configured correctly, check if the proxy is installed/running:

zmproxyctl status
zmprov gs server.domain.com | grep zimbraServiceEnabled
zmprov gs server.domain.com | grep zimbraServiceInstalled

If it's in, then run this:

zmproxyctl stop
zmprov ms server.domain.com -zimbraServiceEnabled imapproxy
zmcontrol stop
zmcontrol start

To reset the ports run the following (on one line):

zmprov -l ms server.domain.com zimbraPop3BindPort 110 zimbraPop3SSLBindPort 995 zimbraPop3ProxyBindPort 7110 zimbraPop3SSLProxyBindPort 7995 zimbraImapBindPort 143 zimbraImapSSLBindPort 993 zimbraImapProxyBindPort 7143 zimbraImapSSLProxyBindPort 7993

then restart. Run those commands as the zimbra user.

I phoenix,

Thanks for the answer. I fixed the wrong configuration.

Do you think that I could find some problem in upgrading to successive ZCS releases?

There should be no problem upgrading releases.
