installation issues

[yaboo]

Hi All

I am continuing to try and install zimbra 5.0.2 upon debian etch upon a vserver.

currently when I do a zmcontrol status everything has started but the mainbox here is the output

zimbra@nene:~$ zmcontrol status
Host nene
antispam Running
antivirus Running
ldap Running
logger Running
mailbox Stopped
zmmailboxdctl is not running
mta Running
snmp Running
spell Running
stats Running

going through the logs I find this error also

681 WARN [main] log - Nested in java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException:
java.net.BindException: Address already in use
at sun.nio.ch.Net.bind(Native Method)


I also noticed port 110 and 143 do not respond.

any ideas why

regards

Joseph

Hi All

I seem to be able to get the zimbra from the status all running. Seems I needed to install libdb3.

My next problem is now with everything running. I try to go to https://server:7071/zimbraAdmin I get a 404. When I try to telnet to port 7071 I get a connection refused. Any leads on how to debug this.

Hi All

After further checking noticed port 443 is not working. any ideas, is port 443 just a normal apache config porblem, or some zimbra specific issue.

are you running IPTables on your host ?

shutdown Zimbra and then run netstat -an to ensure that none of the ports are being used by another application.

Ok, found that the vserver was my conflict. Seems I need to take more care in my configuration upon the server due to port conflict with the vserver.

Also what would be my iptables syntax to send to and throu the ports.

that very much depends on what ports you want the outside to be able to connect too ?

start with a iptables -L to see what you already have setup.

ok wish to forward port 25, guess is really all thats needed, and guess the web mail.

-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 25 -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT

These rules will allow SMTP, HTTP and HTTPS into your server. All outbound should be enabled by default anyway.

Note: You will probably have to change the IPTables chain name for whatever your inbound one is.

thanks, will try this.
