Installation Fails on Setting Defaults

[molson150]

This is being installed on a FC4 fresh install. A record and MX record is added correctly, I have no idea why it is doing this. This is my output.

[root@localhost zcs]# ./install.sh

What's on that line? "/opt/zimbra/libexec/zmsetup.pl line 459"

What is in your install.log?

[molson150]

It only creates the log file it contains no text.

The bolded Line is 459.

elsif (isEnabled("zimbra-mta")) {

my @answer = $ans->answer;
foreach my $a (@answer) {
if ($a->type eq "MX") {
my $h = getDnsRecords ($a->exchange,'A');
my @ha = $h->answer;
foreach $h (@ha) {
if ($h->type eq 'A') {
progress "\tMX: ".$a->exchange." (".$h->address.")\n";

Thanks,
Jeremy

What does

host `hostname`

give you? Maybe DNS is not resolving.

[molson150]

That was the problem I had a bad MX record pointing to a bad server name.

Thanks KevinH for all the help.

Hi Anil,

Can you give us a little bit more information?
Are you attempting to access the administration console? If so, then the correct address is http://>hostname<:7071/zimbraAdmin

Thanks

EDIT: my bad: as bobby pointed out, you have to access the adminui over ssl.

[bobby]

make sure you're connecting over ssl:

https://server:7071/
