Unhappy [SOLVED] Ubuntu 8.04 64 + Zimbra 5.018
Hello,

I tried to install zimbra the 20th time now. I edited my hosts file and tried it with installing bind9 but It doesn't run.

I (try to) run zimbra on a Ubuntu 8.04 64bit minimal installation root server

Here the error message in the log file:

Code:
ERROR: zclient.IO_ERROR (invoke Connection refused, server: localhost) (cause: java.net.ConnectException Connection refused)
Fri Jul 17 18:30:29 2009 *** Running as zimbra user: /opt/zimbra/bin/zmprov mcf zimbraNotebookAccount wiki@rapidserv.de

Fri Jul 17 18:30:35 2009 failed to initialize documents...see logfile for details.
Fri Jul 17 18:30:35 2009 Restarting mailboxd...
my hosts file:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
188.40.234.114 rapidserv.de rapidserv

host `hostname`
rapidserv.de has address 188.40.234.114
rapidserv.de mail is handled by 10 rapidserv.de.
seems to right..

zmsetup.07172009-182438.log

Sorry just found http://wiki.zimbra.com/index.php?tit..._Install_Guide
I hope this will help me..

Greetings HansBlix

Your host file is incorrect, it should contain the FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) of your server. This file:

Code:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
188.40.234.114 rapidserv.de rapidserv
should look like this:
Code:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
188.40.234.114 mail.rapidserv.de mail
You will also need a Split DNS if your server is behind a NAT router or firewall, it's detailed in the wiki article you linked to. Your external DNS records will also need correcting to reflect the FQDN of the Zimbra server.

Hello, thanks for the answer.

I installed it again like described in the wiki article, the webinterface on mail.rapidserv.de shows up now, but when I try to login it says:

???remote.CONNECT_FAILURE???

During the installation I also got these errors (again):

Code:
(..)
ERROR: account.DOMAIN_EXISTS (domain already exists: rapidserv.de)(..)
Code:
ERROR: zclient.IO_ERROR (invoke Connection refused, server: localhost) (cause: java.net.ConnectException Connection refused)

Mon Jul 20 18:27:39 2009 failed to initialize documents...see logfile for details.
Here are some configuration files which may be important to solve the problem:

Let's check the DNS first, post the output of the following command (run on the zimbra server):

Code:
cat /etc/hosts
cat /etc/resolv.conf
dig rapidserv.de mx
dig rapidserv.de any
host `hostname`  <-- type that exact command with backticks not single quotes

Your A & MX records are incorrect, they should look like this:

Code:
rapidserv.de.           86380   IN      MX      10 mail.rapidserv.de.

mail.rapidserv.de.           37797   IN      A       188.40.234.114
Make those changes and see if that fixes your problem.

It seem to work now!
Thanks a lot.

But what is about the failed to initialize documents error during the installation, I think antispam and antivirus doesn't work because of that..

Code:
zmcontrol status
Host rapidserv.de
        antispam                Stopped
                zmamavisdctl is not running
        antivirus               Stopped
                zmamavisdctl is not running
        ldap                    Running
        logger                  Running
        mailbox                 Running
        mta                     Running
        snmp                    Running
        spell                   Running
        stats                   Running
any suggestions?

===============

The server has just not enough RAM, so I deactived the logger, antivirus and antispam the rest works properly now

Thanks again and a nice weekend
