Default [SOLVED] Zimbra desktop does not run on Fedora 13

Hi, I have been using Zimbra desktop beta version 2 happily on an OpenSuse 11.2 64 bit installation worked straight "out of the box"
I have just set up a box on Fedora 13, 64 bit.
I ran the install, no issues.
When I click on the desktop icon I get this message:
There was an error launching the application.
Details: Failed to execute child process "/opt/zimbra/zdesktop/linux/prism/zdclient" (no such file or directory)
I ran the installer as root, and changed the suggested paths for the user install to reflect my home folder etc, same as I did on the Opensuse install, permissions looked odd on the data folder in my home folder so I chmod them to allow myself full access.
I have checked, the path is correct and the file exists.
I have tried making a launcher myself, pointing to the same location, nope - same error.
Any ideas?
I have got SELinux disabled, no difference :-(
Thanks for any assistance.
Regards Peter.

Did you install the second part of the installer (the user data) as a user?

Yep, that did the trick. Thanks.
Once I got the program running and presto, I copied my backed up data into the zdesktop folder and all mail data present and correct.
Thanks again.
Regards Peter.
