Yet another get.DirectContext issue

[dccpark]

I know you all will probably hate me...but I CANNOT get this working. My intent was to setup a test zimbra install so that we could showcase it to faculty and staff and get their thoughts on things. We do not run our own DNS server, but use Zoneedit. The test server that we want zimbra to run on is test.example.edu. We've set test.example.edu as an mx record for example.edu (with ZoneEdit) and we can ping it from various workstations (ping test.example.edu) When I attempt to setup Zimbra I get,

The last entry in /tmp/zmsetup.log.14212 is:


ERROR: service.FAILURE (system failure: getDirectContext) (cause: javax.naming.CommunicationException test.davisny.edu:389)
Error: key trial_expiration_date is not set
Host test.davisny.edu

-----

I've searched the forums extensively. I've made sure /etc/hosts is configured correctly. I've looked at the wiki page for the getDirectContext error and done everything that it recommends, but still no dice.

I just noticed this,

[root@test data]# host test.davisny.edu
test.davisny.edu has address 192.168.0.8
[root@test data]# host 192.168.0.8
8.0.168.192.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer 66-194-51-29.gen.twtelecom.net.

Could this be the issue? If so, anyone have anything else to offer me in the way of help here? Thanks in advance.

Looks like your DNS is returning your internal IP which should be ok assuming you can get to your IP(no SElinux or firewall).

Can you post your /tmp/install.log? Or the rest of zmsetup.log? What OS are you using?

[dccpark]

There is no firewall running on this box (I turned IPTABLES off), and didn't even install SELinux. I'm running CentOS4.2, and using the Zimbra binaries for RHEL4.

I verified that Iptables was off, and did an ./install.sh -u and then a fresh install. Same error. Here is the zmsetup.log:

Thanks again.

So very clear here that LDAP never came up. You should try to start it in debug mode. There is a how-to here:

http://wiki.zimbra.com/index.php?title=LDAP

[dccpark]

Okay, so I took a look at that link and ran the following commands:

[root@test tmp]# ps auxww | grep zimbra | grep slapd
zimbra 22925 0.0 0.9 55324 2428 ? Ssl 12:43 0:00 /opt/zimbra/openldap/libexec/slapd -l LOCAL0 -4 -u zimbra -h ldaps:// ldap://:389/ -f /opt/zimbra/conf/slapd.conf
[root@test tmp]# su - zimbra
[zimbra@test ~]$ ldap status
slapd running pid: 22925

So, the wiki doesn't really say what to do if ldap status actually returns something. So, I pretended that I didn't see a pid and instead just pkilled the process and tried the following:

[zimbra@test ~]$ sh -x bin/ldap start
+ PID=
+ PIDFILE=/opt/zimbra/openldap/var/run/slapd.pid
+ mkdir -p /opt/zimbra/openldap/var/run/
+ case "$1" in
+ start
+ checkrunning
+ getpid
+ '[' -f /opt/zimbra/openldap/var/run/slapd.pid ']'
+ '[' x = x ']'
+ RUNNING=0

So...that started. I killed the pid again and tried (as zimbra user) zmcontrol start, and got:

[zimbra@test ~]$ zmcontrol start
Host test.davisny.edu
Starting ldap...Done.

But still can't get to the admin interface listed in the quick start install guide. It tells me the connection is refused. Any additional logs I can post? Any other ideas of what I should try?

Sounds like the hostname (returned by zmhostname) isn't configured in ldap, as if the install failed and needs to be redone.
