Default [SOLVED] How to find version of zimbra in /opt/zimbra? (moving from 4 to 5)

Hello:

I'm moving my servers (trying to upgrade from 4.x to 5.x) from fedora 4 to fedora 7.

I have a complete backup of /opt/zimbra, so I'm ok, but the upgrade of fedora 4 -> Fedora 6 -> Fedora 7 has totally hosed my old system.

I need to figure out which 4.x version i had installed - .8, .9. or .10 so that I can install this on the new fedora 7 host, and move in my old /opt/zimbra data.

How can tell which exact version that I had, by looking in /opt/zimbra?

Also, I'm hoping I can install 4.x.8/9/10 on fedora 7 and then upgrade it to 5.x.

Or can I just install 5.x and then move in the 4.x /opt/zimbra and have it re-install?

I've looked around and haven't seen _how_ you are supposed to get the OS from Fedora 4/5 to 7 _and_ also upgrade zimbra 4.x to 5.x...

SO I'm punting on F7- I'm using RHEL4, which has a version for each build.

But I'd still like to know how you can tell the version of zimbra if you only have the /opt/zimbra files to work with....

Excellent, that is exactly it. And it gave me a nice trip down memory lane, seeing all my past Zimbra installs.......
