Comments on Zimbra Collaboration Suite Open Source Edition On CentOS

Zimbra Collaboration Suite Open Source Edition On CentOS This tutorial shows how to set up Zimbra Collaboration Suite - Open Source Edition on CentOS. This tutorial covers installation of CentOS, dependencies for ZCS and setup of Split DNS when working behind a firewall. This tutorial is based on the way I set this server up and is only a suggestion. It carries no guarantees and it is highly suggested that you do this on a test server first to verify functionality. If you don't have a test server available you should download VMWare Server 1.0 and perform this tutorial on a test virtual server.

When you do "yum install libtool-ltdl " you'll probably also have to do "yum install compat-libstdc++-33 compat-libstdc++-296". My system certainly didn't have those components and they are a prereq for ZCS.

I also found sysstat wasn't installed!

 yum install sysstat

Please note that Zimbra does not support CentOS. (Its NOT identical to RedHat.)
RedHat servers are supported.
Zimbra team suggests using Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS instead.

while installing on centos,after unpacking your zcs setup marked RHEL, use this command to install:

#sh .install.sh --platform-override

this worked perfectly for me:)

if you select centos extras it will restart the installation, something about error !!!!

It seems that the installation of Zimbra 6 on CentOS 64 requires "sysstat" to be installed. Without it, installation fails. This is not mentioned in the instructions. I don't know if this is true for 32 bit versions.
