Can't start mailbox...

[redbaron]

Hi all,

I'm having some problems starting the mailbox. If I use the startup script (in /etc/init.d) only ldap starts.
if I use

zmcontrol start
Host slinkilin.pnc.co.il
        Starting ldap...Done.

ps -ef | grep zimbra
zimbra   25347     1  0 22:48 ?        00:00:00 /opt/zimbra/openldap/libexec/slapd -l LOCAL0 -4 -u zimbra -h ldap://slinkilin.pnc.co.il:389 -f /opt/zimbra/conf/slapd.conf

zmcontrol status
Cannot determine services - exiting

So, I opened the bin/zmcontrol and started the services manually by the same order they are in the script.

/opt/zimbra/bin/zmloggerctl start
Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /opt/zimbra/logger/db/data
[zimbra@slinkilin ~]$ STOPPING server from pid file /opt/zimbra/logger/db/mysql.pid
070813 22:59:09  mysqld ended

zimbra   26049 26047  0 22:59 pts/1    00:00:00 /usr/bin/perl /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmlogger

Then I start the mailbox:

 /opt/zimbra/bin/zmmailboxctl start

There is allot of output, but in the end there is this:

Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /opt/zimbra/db/data

ERROR: problem reading config from ldap. Make sure ldap is running.

Also I can see a strange lines in the log:

I remember that I did enabled the mailbox in my setup... (how can I check this)

What am I doing wrong?

Looks like Zimbra is already running.
Try stopping it

$su - zimbra
$zmcontrol stop

Then start it

$su - zimbra
$zmcontrol start
