[SOLVED] Zimbra Upgrade from 4.5.6 to 4.5.7 fails (ldap start error 256)

[s0nspark]

I am doing a single-server upgrade from 4.5.6 to 4.5.7 and when zmsetup.pl runs I end up in a loop trying to start ldap... Any help appreciated ... I'm dead in the water at the moment :-/

Here is the log snippet:

I should point out that sldap.conf exists and is owned by root, not zimbra and I've been using a self-signed certificate.

Is this a Debian installation, by any chance? I'd suggest you run the zmfixperms script and try the install again with the -s option..

Yes it is (well, Ubuntu...) ... I did both as suggested... The script suggested I run zmsetup.pl to configure so I did but ended up in the same loop. I killed the zmsetup.pl process, ran zmfixperms and then reran zmsetup.pl ... that did the trick for me.

I really don't understand the perms got screwed up in the first place, though. :-/

you've already got a slapd daemon running. kill it.

Thanks alot the issue was resolved for me

Actually the LDAP service is not running from 1day

then I killed all the processes first by running the command

killall -TERM slapd

and then I started the Zimbra servives

zmcontrol start

The services started successfully.........................
