[SOLVED] Zimbra not running in apache

[ianpico]

Hi
Just trying to set up a test system everything seemed to install ok (Fedora 7 and Zimbra 6.0.5) - When trying to log into https://ipaddress:7071 - I get cannot connect.

Running netstat -anp | grep 7071 shows that is not running (blank output)

Is there something I need to do to get it running on the webserver.
(I assumed the installation would set up all the necessary web server bits)

Im no expert so if someone could point me to logs/settings etc I need to check would be grateful

Cheers

Welcome to the forums

Please check /var/log/zimbra.log and /opt/zimbra/log/mailbox.log. It would also be useful if you posted the following

cat /etc/hosts
cat /etc/resolv.conf
dig yourdomain mx
dig yourdomain any
host `hostname` <- note backticks and not single quotes

host `hostname` <- note backticks and not single quotes - couldnt get this to work so did

dig -a mailhost <-with no backticks (or quotes)
Trying "mailhost.testtech.co.uk"
Trying "mailhost"
Host mailhost not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
Received 101 bytes from 192.168.1.27#53 in 0 ms

if i do zmcontrol status get
Unable to determine enabled services from ldap . Cache is out of date or doesnt exist.

Sounds a bit broke ! - Hope you can point me in right direction - Im using this a to learn!

You will need to set up a Split DNS - Zimbra :: Wiki architecture.

Ok I will have a look at that. We have an internal DNS server - Ive found it having issues with forward lookups so I will get that sorted first
