Initializing ldap...FAILED (256)

[rmvg]

Ok all i have been struggling with the 4.0.4_GA_457.RHEL4-20061115174505 install on centos for a couple of days now. Reluctant to submit to the forums as they are so huge now i am guessing almost every possible question has been answered heehee. As always forgive me if this has been answered elsewhere and I would like to apologize in advance for the lengthy post hope the code brackets did not seem to work so i added a link to a text file on my ftp server.

During install/reinstall using the -u option of the install script I get this error

Creating SSL certificate...Done
Initializing ldap...FAILED (256)


ERROR



Configuration failed

Please address the error and re-run /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmsetup.pl to
complete the configuration[root@mx1 zcs]#


This pointed me to the ldap wiki page and i tried the troubleshooting stuff there could not fit the entire message so the output is contained here

ftp://ftpking:fileshare@computerking...ng/zimbra1.txt

thank you

I haven't looked at your log yet but is this a new install or an upgrade? Is CentOS newly installed? If it is have you disabled the firewall and SElinux? I assume you have your DNS records set-up correctly?

This is a new install however it has failed several times, but i have issued the ./install.sh -u command to completely remove previous attempts. Yes it is a fairly fresh and updated version of centos 4.4 i believe not on site right now so cannot get exact version number. Yes the firewall and SElinux were disabled during centos setup.

Make sure that you don't have LDAP running

telnet localhost 389

I also have this error - although I am pretty sure this is due to me trying to use FC5's version of Zimbra on FC 6

I'm about to play with a source download as I have nothing better to do on a Sunday

*** EDIT *** Solution:

#Defaults requiretty

Hope this helps you

What file are those changes made in ? I'm getting the same error and my router IS configured and I get connection refused when attempting to telnet to localhost on 389. I need to get this up and running and it just doesn't work!

I checked around and saw several similar threads and took the initiative to answer questions I am quite sure I will be asked.

1. OpenSSL is installed
2. hosts shows LOCALLANIP fqhn hn
3. have tried WANIP fqhn hn
4. did ensure libssl.so.5 and libcrypto.so.5 were available in usr/lib - linked to libssl.so.0.9.8 and libcrypto.so.0.9.8

If you notice in the above output that I had already linked libssl.so.0.9.7 to libssl.so.0.9.8 , this is because i saw a suspicious error the first time i tried to install zimbra. I looked at the installation log after the last post and saw that it couldn't find libcrypto.so.0.9.7, i linked it to libcrypto.so.0.9.8 and tried again.

New error this time. (Same error code Initializing LDAP....failed (256))
