Exclamation [SOLVED] Help! centos install, but no tomcat???????

hello all,

so i reinstalled zimbra, thinking something was broken. turns out my ISP might be screwing with things. anyway, i cannot, for the life of me, get port 7071 to work. it's not open when i do nmap, but everything in the logs says all is ok.

when i check ps, there is no tomcat proccess. and there is no directory called "tomcat" anywhere on my system. in fact, there is NOTHING called tomcat on my system. anywhere.

running centos-5, 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5. I have tried installing with the latest 5.0.13 as well as an older (used to be working version) of 5.0.10.

i have completely removed zimbra, twice 3 times now, rebooted, install works flawlessly. no errors at all.

I have used the rhel 5, but also tried rhel 4. using of course the platform-override option.

I need help. This is driving me up the wall, i am entirely out of idea's on what to do. everything LOOKS right...install works fine and the logs indicate all clear, but i cannot get the management aspect to work. but the webmail portion runs just peaches... i assume that tomcat is still used... and if so, for some reason it is not installing at all for me. checked the install log for "tom" and got nothing, so it's not even trying?

anyway, been a bad day for me overall so i apologize if I'm missing something blatantly obvious.

Do you have the firewall and/or SELinux under CentOS enabled? Most likely would be a firewall issue in this case, but I'd recommend disabling both.

Since 5.0, doesn't Zimbra uses jetty instead of tomcat?

I feel so foolish... an entire day of cursing and stress...

my firewall was turned on. i however, didn't touch it. ever. at all. and my zimbra worked fine before. i don't know if maybe the yum update did it, or what. so SOMEHOW, it got turned on. which is a problem in itself, since i certainly didn't do it.

anyway, that was the issue...firewall... ugh.
