Problem with Zimbra Install - Pls Help!

[joeleo]

Hi All, I am trying to get a new zimbra 4.5-7 installed on Ubuntu. The installed seems to go well until I get this error:

Setting defaults from saved config in /opt/zimbra/.saveconfig/config.save

Per above error, I am not sure why I see my hostname show as:
HOSTNAME=dsl027-139-174.dc1.dsl.speakeasy.net
I have set my hostname properly in /etc/hostname as:
mx1.domain.com...

Thanks in advance for any comments/suggestions that could help!

It looks like the system is trying to perform an upgrade to an installation that does not exist.

This is usually caused by the packages remaining in the db (in this case dpkg).

Make sure you run the uninstaller script (./install.sh -u), the query dpkg to make sure zimbra is gone.
dpkg -q zimbra*
