New Installation

[rdo2006]

Please forgive my ignorance - I'm not a system admin by any stretch of the imagination, but I'm a quick study. I've got Zimbra OS edition installed through much help of the Tech Staff at Rackspace. I went through all the configuration steps, and made all the recommended settings. I set up a domain in the installation process. I though that I would be good to go and would be able to browse over to the domain I declared in the setup process and get started configuring it for use. I'm sure that the IP is configured correctly and pointed in the right direction. But I checked to make sure everything was running and I got this:

--------------------

antispam Running
antivirus Running
ldap Running
logger Running
mailbox Stopped
zmmailboxdctl is not running.
mta Stopped
postfix is not running
snmp Running
spell Running
stats Running

--------------------

I used the "zmcontrol start" to try and start everything but that didn't seem to make it work either.

Also of note - I have plesk running on this same server. I know Zimbra asks for its own server, but I can't afford that What do I need to do to get this running right?

Thanks in advance...

Zimbra and Plesk?
from the above post looks like PLESK is using some ports which zimbra also uses..from the sevrices you mention looks like port 80 and 25
you can either stop those on PLESK or run zimbra on non standard ports once you know which ones are conflicting

if you stop zimbra
su - zimbra
zmcontrol stop
logout

and post the output of the following then we can try to guess whats the conflict.

lsof -i

[raj]

its clear from your output that follwing services which PLESK is running are conflicting with zimbra

xinetd 504 root 8u IPv4 4110643 TCP *:smtp (LISTEN)
xinetd 504 root 9u IPv4 4110644 TCP *:smtps (LISTEN)
httpd 2221 apache 4u IPv4 4325274 TCP *:http (LISTEN)
httpd 2221 apache 5u IPv4 4325276 TCP *:https (LISTEN)
couriertc 32374 root 5u IPv4 4108404 TCP *:imap (LISTEN)
couriertc 32384 root 5u IPv4 4108418 TCP *:imaps (LISTEN)
couriertc 32392 root 5u IPv4 4108432 TCP *op3 (LISTEN)
couriertc 32401 root 5u IPv4 4108446 TCP *op3s (LISTEN)


from this list looks like PLESK is running

port 25
port 110
port 143
port 993
port 80
port 443

you need to stop these services to get zimbra to listen on the same ports.

you can run port 80 and 443 on diff ports in zimbra BUT you have to stop PLESK listinging on port 25, 110, 143 and 993

i dont use PLESK so i cannot help you with that..may be someone else on the board knows or you go to PLESK help
or read the manual in PLESX..should not be hard to do

its always a challange to run zimbra in a mixed mode..

if you have good beefed up machine..may be you can run Vmware Esxi or Xen server5 (both free) and install 2 seprate VM's one for zimbra and one for PLESK.
