Zimbra Desktop installation problem

[sakkalyoncu]

I have a problem while installing Zimbra Desktop on Windows 7. I installed the application using zdesktop_2_0_b10580_win32.msi. It didnot give any error message.

After installation, I try to start the application but it always giving "a script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding..." and "Script: file///C:/....../win32/prism/components/ForceOnline.js:180" and only two buttons I have. One says "continue", other says "Stop script". When I select "continue" it gaves the following error message and stops.

"JavaScript Application", "Couldn't access Zimbra Destop server. ...".

I donot have any Zimbra Server installaed in my site. I just want to check the connectivity and performans while connecting to Exchange. Is it possible first? Do I need Zimbra Server? Can I use Zimbra desktop to connect, only for, Exchange?

Please could someone help me on this issue?

Do you have any firewall and/or anti-virus/spam/spyyware applications running? If you do I'd suggest you disable them and try staring ZD again and see if it works.

I've not been able to get Zimbra Desktop to connect to our Exchange 2010 server. We have IMAP port open (993 with SSL), but it keeps telling me it can't access. I'm inside the firewall, besides, having to diable our firewall and spam filters to install 700 users would not be practical. Is anyone else having similar problems?
