Hi,

I'm having the same problem, can anyone help?

I've downloaded and tried installing Zimbra 5.0.16 open source edition. I've tried it on Ubuntu 8.04 and 9.04 server editions, both as virtual machines using virtualbox on Ubuntu 9.04 desktop edition

All the best

Search the forums for the words 'Syntax error Bad loop variable'.

Hi Bill, thank for the reply.

Already tried that search and it only comes up with 3 results, this thread being one of them. The others don't seem to be this problem.

Hi
yes i fixed it but cannot remember the exact solution but i do know that there was a lib missing. since mine was a fresh install i removed it and installed the lib and reinstalled it and it worked

I am also having this problem. I have am installing on a virtualbox Ubuntu 8.04 server. I have gone through every step on the walk through and it hoses up at this point. This is the second clean install that i have tried. I have been able to glean from other forums that this is a dependency issue but I can't find what exactly that I am missing. I am a a bit of a noob, so it is possible that I am missing something easy. I would be grateful for any help I can get on this issue.

Follow the instructions in post #4 above, one of those threads from the search results has the answer in it.

So I'm testing this product out and and one of my testbeds I run into this very same error. A google search brings me to this page. I follow the directions in post #4 and and get the following results:

a page about ubuntu 7 and using rc
this thread
a thread that no longer exists
a thread about ldap
a wiki link with the error message not in it
a second wiki link with the error message not in it
