Redhat hangs on reboot after Zimbra install

[pecotodd]

Hi,
I got Zimbra installed on a RH4 server. I thought everything was ok, I did a reboot and my console would never return a login screen. If I telnet in, I can see these running processes:
1808 /bin/bach /etc/rc.d/rc 5
3439 initlog -q -c /etc/rc5.d/S99zimbra start
3440 /bin/bash /etc/rc5.d/S99zimbra start
3442 su -zimbra -c zmcontrol startup >/opt/zimbra/startup.log 2>&1

If I kill process 3442, I immediatley get my console login and the server is ok again.
Then I went in and started zimbra manually (zmcontrol) the antispam and antivirus show as not running. Then when I get to the zimbra console, it shows antivirus/antispam/stats with a big red X

Where do I start with this one?

I've still got this issue. I thought maybe it was because the antispam/antivirus wasn't working correctly, so I disabled those 2 from the zimbra admin control panel.

The next reboot, it still hangs. Now I don't plan on rebooting this thing very often, but its really bugging me! Something isn't right. What logs should I be looking at to give me an idea?

I had the same or similar issue which was caused by Selinux trying to change the context of a user from the zimbra init startup script. I fixed it by changing all instances of "su - zimbra" in the startup script to "/sbin/runuser - zimbra".

I'm pretty sure zimbra recommends disabling selinux. Actually i see everywhere that disabling it is recommended.

Yep-
We're working to enable SELinux, but currently it is not a support config:
