System requirement Mac

[macjonte]

I've searched and searched the web pages, but what are system requirements for installing the open source edition on a Mac?
I've tried with 10.6.4, but it doesn't work to run the installer script after the installation is done, it just produce a lot of errors.

second question, I can't find any virtual appliance edition for the open source release. Isn't that weird for a vmware company?

Read the Quick Start Installation Guide (link to the Documentation at the top of this page).

Support > Documentation > Quick start is only about the network edition. I have the open source edition. Is still relevant?

The link, as I said earlier, is at the top of this page - it's under 'Docs'.

ah, those pages looked exactly the same but the content was different thanks.

but the quick start contains lots of errors and misleading information..
First "The Mac OS requires no additional modifications." and then under the same chapter a completely wrong way to make Java 1.5 the default Java Version (which is an additional modification)...
First, Java 1.5 is not even included in Snow Leopard. And changes to default version is made with the Java Settings in the utilities folder.

Sorry friend...
ZCS (any edition) is not supported on the current (10.6) version of Mac OS X...
see Bug 38905 – zcs build for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard ...
Zimbra are apparently waiting to hear from Apple. From the "Bugzilla" report you can see there has been no movement on this for a long time, and if you look on the Product Portal 38905 has now disappeared from the requirements of any future releases so I'm guessing it's deemed somewhat unimportant. From what I've read there is also a problem with 10.5 so 10.4 is the latest Mac OS X version that Zimbra runs clean on.
