Need help with manual installation

[SteveB]

Hallo forum

I am using a Linux distro where I can not use the RPMs or the DEB packages. So I am forced to do everything manually.

I checked out "FRANK" and compiled with ant ZimbraWebClient and ZimbraServer and Ajax.

I successful deployed zimbra.war, service.war and zimbraAdmin.war in Tomcat 5.5. I modified server.xml and added the following part:

I modified Tomcat's web.xml and added the following part:

 
    
        zgz
        text/javascript
    
    

I copied /opt/zimbra/tomcat/conf/keystore to my Tomcat 5.5 installation (${CATALINA_BASE}/conf/keystore).

After restarting I can see a login screen for the normal web client http://myhost:7070/zimbra but when I try to use the Zimbra admin at https://myhost:7071/zimbraAdmin then I don't see anything in Firefox. It is just empty. But when I look at the code of the page I see that the page get's rendered. So it should work.

But I still have some questions:

• What about the other Tomcat files?:
  • /opt/zimbra/tomcat/common/endorsed/zimbra-charset.jar
  • /opt/zimbra/tomcat/common/lib/zimbra-native.jar
  • /opt/zimbra/tomcat/common/lib/ical4j-0.9.16-patched.jar
  • /opt/zimbra/tomcat/common/lib/activation.jar
  • /opt/zimbra/tomcat/common/lib/mail.jar
• Should I move those files int my Tomcat installation?
• Should I add /opt/zimbra/tomcat/common/endorsed and /opt/zimbra/tomcat/common/lib to my CLASSPATH?

I have jet not created the MySQL database and I still have not configured OpenLDAP. I know that they need to be configured for Zimbra to work. But right now I only am trying to get a login screen for the normal web client (which works) and for the admin web client (which does not work).

Is it me, or is the code blank.
Try to post your error again.

The code was not blank. It was correct but I had to tweak the entry to get it posted correctly here in the forum since the forum filter destroys it. Anyway... will post it again.

I replaced < with [
and > with ]
in order to get the post correctly displayed here in this form.

btw: I think the forum software should not mess up with the content if it is enclosed in code /code entries.
