My experience has been that in the system that I could play around with, formatting and installing Zimbra first works extremely easy. However if you have an established system that has been 'used' for a bit it doesn't work at all.

Since I have triple verified these packages exist what can I try to make this work? Dpkg -s <package> shows "Status: install ok installed" for every prereq.

This has been a re-occuring problem in every 'established' system I have tried.

Here's the code we used to check for Debian:

		Q=`$PACKAGEQUERY $pkg 2>/dev/null | egrep '^Status: ' `
		if [ "x$Q" != "x" ]; then
			echo $Q | grep 'not-installed' > /dev/null 2>&1
			if [ $? != 0 ]; then
				version=`$PACKAGEQUERY $pkg | egrep '^Version: ' | sed -e 's/Version: //' 2> /dev/null`
				PKGINSTALLED="${pkg}-${version}"
			fi
		fi

Where

	PACKAGEINST='dpkg -i'
	PACKAGERM='dpkg --purge'
	PACKAGEQUERY='dpkg -s'
	PACKAGEEXT='deb'
	PREREQ_PACKAGES="sudo libidn11 curl fetchmail libgmp3 libxml2 libstdc++6 openssl"

Did any one had a missing zimbra script under /etc/init.d?

I just installed version 3.1.0_GA_332 on my debian 3.1 machine and the zimbra script is missing after the install.

Thanx!

Look in /opt/zimbra/libexec

Thanx Kevin,

Is it known a bug? Should it not have been placed by the install script in the right folder?

Thanx!

Hi,
Excuse me for my bad english.
I have installed the version 3.1.0_GA_332 on my debian 3.1 machine.

It's work very very good!
I am very satisfied, compared with the other softwares, it is really better.

If the server has 4go of memory how much of users can be managed?
Thanks

[bobby]

that depends on how (web client, imap, etc) and how often the users access the server. how many users do you have?

btw glad to hear things are running good

When could we expect to get an official stable debian release?
