New to Linux - Zimbra Installation trouble on FC3

[Jaymate]

Have just installed FC3 - that seemed to go well.

Trying now to install Zimbra but get the following after downloading the FC3 Binary package

[root@zimbra ~]# tar xzvf zcs-3.0.M1_21.FC3.tgz
zcs/
zcs/README.txt
zcs/bin/
zcs/bin/ldapsearch
zcs/packages/
zcs/packages/zimbra-mta-3.0.M1_21.FC3-20050920155949_.i386.rpm

gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now


Any help would be appreciated - or an idiots guide may also help!

Thanks

Jason

Also, when Iook in the zcs folder there is no install.sh file.

Help..!

Howdy,

Most likely, the Zimbra file you downloaded was somehow corrupted. I might simply try re-downloading it, that will likely solve it right away.

Verify that you have enough space on the system you're downloading and untarring it to, not having enough space is a good way for the above to happen :-)

Good luck,
-Eric

I think that there is something wrong with the FC3 tgz package.

I have been trying to download it for the last couple of days and thought is was a bit odd - it may be me though

on the download page http://www.zimbra.com/downloads/sourcebinary/index.php it says that the tgz file should be 142 Mb. I start to download it and all of a sudden it shoots through and the file is only 2mb.

Any ideas - anwhere else I could download the full package?

THere's a problem with your download, not the package.

It's possible that your browser is trying to extract the file on download, or that you've got a proxy server (are you at work?) that's stripping out the contents.

Try fetching it with wget (on your linux box):
wget http://downloads.zimbra.com/3.0_M1/z....M1_21.FC3.tgz
which should get around any browser stuff that may be happening.

ERROR: Installation can not proceeed. Please fix your /etc/hosts file
to contain:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost

Zimbra install grants mysql permissions only to localhost and
localhost.localdomain users. But Fedora/RH installs leave lines such
as these in /etc/hosts:

127.0.0.1 myhost.mydomain.com myhost localhost.localdomain localhost
This causes MySQL to reject users coming from 127.0.0.1 as users from
myhost.mydomain.com. You can read more details at:

Install had errors. Can you post your /etc/hosts file?
