Zimbra

I was looking at trying out Zimbra for email, however I hit various problems (and giving your packages the same short description of "Best email money can buy" it frankly pathetic). Anyhow, some notes on what I did:

  • downloaded sarge, edited bin/get_plat_tag - comment out 3.1 bit
  • ensure hostname -s, -i works (/etc/hosts)
  • install sudo, curl, fetchmail, libidn11, libgmp3c2, libxml2
  • (change dep from libgmp3 to libgmp3c2)
  • install libssl0.9.7, perl-modules
  • edit conf/localconfig.xml add ldap_is_master=true
  • NB: password is world readable here!
  • libexec/zmldapinit failed
  • used ubuntu version, bin/get_plat_tag.sh -UBUNTU6

The problems I hit IIRC was that it refused to talk to the LDAP server and refused to startup (even spending a few hours strace()ing it didn't allow me to fix the problem).
