zimbra services not able to start

[dsuherma]

Hi, I spend a day to install zimbra open source edition.
The install.sh going thru w/o error, but zncontrol start not seeing any services are up.
And ~/log directory also empty.
I'm using RHEL 4. Any pointer tha I need to look ?
Also I'm using split DNS setup.
When I login as zimbra user and run zmcontrol start
it just displayed the hostname, also no zomcotnrol.out create d in /tmp.
...
I checked further, it looks ldap not able to start.
I ran :
sh -x ldap start
....
+ /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmconfigure /opt/zimbra/conf/slapd.conf.in /opt/zimbra/conf/slapd.conf
Error: /opt/zimbra/conf/slapd.conf.in does not exist

If that file is missing then the install didn't go that well. Does it really exist? What did the install logs (it's in /tmp) say? When you say RHEL, I assume its 32bit & RHEL4 and fully updated?

Thanks Bill for your repsonse.
I switched to Fedora 5 and facing same problem.
file /opt/zimbra/conf/slapd.conf.in does not exist.
The only error I'm getting in install.log are :
.....
Preparing packages for installation...
zimbra-mta-4.0.5_GA_518.FC5-20061218045914
umount2: No such file or directory
umount: /opt/zimbra/amavisd/tmp: not found
mv: cannot stat `/opt/zimbra/amavisd': No such file or directory

zimbra-snmp-4.0.5_GA_518.FC5-20061218045914

is umount2 must exists ?
But it looks to me the zmsetup.pl not success in generating proper error.
it's not even executing
progress ( "Initializing ldap..." ) in zmsetup.pl
is it possible my system has already an openldap setup ? how do I check it ?
once again, thank you ...

I have to run zmsetup.pl -c
which I did not find it in quickstart install guide.
the doc said, install.sh then will do the rest.
Thanks.
