[SOLVED] Move from FC7 to FC11 not supported ?

[rickard]

Hi,

I need to move a Zimbra OSS installation running on FC7 to another server. The new server must run a more recent OS level, so I was trying FC11 since Zimbra supports this.

I have installed zcs-6.0.2_GA_1912.F11.20091020155433 on the new server and verified that everything works fine. I then removed the newly created /opt/zimbra directory, and replaced it with the old production /opt/zimbra from the FC7 box.
I then ran ./install.sh and was hoping that it would upgrade Zimbra to FC11, but I constantly get the error below. I also tried to move to CentOS and different x64-variants, but always the same error. Does anyone recognize this error? Is the problem in the old FC7 environment? Zimbra has been upgraded on FC7 several times without any errors..!

Thanks

Are you actually running the same version of Zimbra on this server as you have on the new server? If not, then read this: Moving ZCS to New Server - Zimbra :: Wiki

There are also a couple of threads in the forums with the error you posted, please search for this: Perl_Tstack_sp_ptr

Yupp - It's the same i386 release;

On the production box running FC7:
$ zmcontrol -v
Release 6.0.2_GA_1912.F7_20091020145320 F7 FOSS edition.

$ perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i386-linux-thread-multi


On the new FC11 box:

Made a fresh installation using FC11 and zcs-6.0.2_GA_1912.F11.20091020155433
Replaced /opt/zimbra with the one from the FC7 box above

$ perl -v
This is perl, v5.10.0 built for i386-linux-thread-multi

$ zmcontrol -v
/usr/bin/perl: symbol lookup error: /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Data/UUID/UUID.so: undefined symbol: Perl_Tstack_sp_ptr

OK, so it seems like the uuid shipped with Zimbra FC7 isn't compliant with the perl environment in other distributions. Since this is an upgrade, the install script tries to run zmcontrol in the old /opt/zimbra before starting the upgrade, and this will then obviously fail.
The solution is to install the native uuid in FC11;
yum install uuid-perl
And then replace the FC7-version of this and other perl objects in /opt/zimbra with with the FC11 version;

For 32-bit:
rsync -av /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib
rsync -av /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib
rm -rf /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib/perl5

For 64-bit:
rsync -av /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/ /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib
rsync -av /usr/lib64/perl5/5.10.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/ /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib
rm -rf /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib/perl5


The install.sh now works just fine.
