Welcome to the forums

Which Zimbra package did you download ?

[antminds]

zcs-5.0.2_GA_1975.RHEL5.20080130221917.tgz

[uxbod]

Well you are trying to install a RHEL version 5 release on CentOS 4

[antminds]

I am not sure what to install because i have checked on one of the guides online

Zimbra Collaboration Suite Open Source Edition On CentOS | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials

Bro pls help!

[uxbod]

Okay; so if you are using CentOS V4 use this tarball instead:

http://files2.zimbra.com/downloads/6...0202211330.tgz

and when installing you will need to specify

./install.sh --platform-override

[antminds]

i m struck here
