[SOLVED] Patch Zimbra Desktop 1.0.x to make it run on Snow Leopard (Mac OS 10.6)

Zimbra Desktop 1.0.3 should be available for download at Zimbra Desktop Downloads no later than tomorrow (8/28). We have added Snow Leopard support in this patch release in addition to a gal sync fix.

ZD 1.0.3 for Mac direct link

For those of you who don't want to upgrade to 1.0.3, here are some simple steps you can do to make ZD work again on Snow Leopard:

1) Download and unzip libzimbra-native.jnilib.zip attached to this post. The single file in this zip archive is libzimbra-native.jnilib (Size 24048 bytes, MD5 "8226dfab2141dfcc6a59650b2dee2366")

2) Copy libzimbra-native.jnilib to <ZD installation directory>/lib, replacing the existing libzimbra-native.jnilib file)

3) Using a text editor (e.g. vi), open <ZD Installation directory>/zdesktop, look for a line like this:

    if [ "$ver_minor" -gt "5" ]; then

change this line to:

    if [ "$ver_minor" -gt "6" ]; then

save the change and close the file.

4) Start Zimbra Desktop

The link on the Zimbra homepage has not been updated yet. When will this happen?

[jmhe]

...should be sometime today (8/28)

Still no update! Shouldn't be too hard to change a link in a website...

One small problem with 1.0.3, libzimbra-native.jnilib now looks like it is 64 bit only. I just tried it on Snow Leopard 32-bit and I get a jnilib: no suitable image found - wrong architecture in the logs

[robsee]

During installation I got a message about being unable to inject zimlets. Is there a fix for this that I should run after I replace the jnilib.

We are releasing a new mac osx installer that has an universal jni lib (for both 32/64 bit)
