Question :
When i try to install Zimbra 7.1.4 on linux CentOS 6.2 server, i stuck at the following error:
*** CONFIGURATION COMPLETE - press 'a' to apply Select from menu, or press 'a' to apply config (? - help) a Save configuration data to a file? [Yes] yes Save config in file: [/opt/zimbra/config.9228] Saving config in /opt/zimbra/config.9228...done. The system will be modified - continue?

How to fix this?
Solutions :
By default, sudo configuration has deny any sudo command for the user who not logged in. Therefore you need to comment out this line on /etc/sudoers.
1. Login to another putty session(second screen) and leave the installation error (first screen) for a while.
2. Modify /etc/sudoers or alternatively, you just type visudo :
[root@mail ~]# vi /etc/sudoers
3. Comment out this line only :
# Defaults requiretty
4. Go to the first screen where your zimbra installation failed. Then you can continue back the installation by executing the following command :
[root@mail ~]# /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmsetup.pl
Thanks for this I was well struggling
Hello to the end of the installation I get this error, I’m on ubuntu 12.04 server, I can not to install Zimbra, the “sudoers” file does not contain the line “Defaults requiretty”
Then I can not find how to resume the installation of Zimbra, the file launches zmsetup.pl nothing
Hi!
I followed your instruction and finish the installation. But when i enter my address of my server in Firefox, it always show the connecting message but cannot show the webmail for me to login.
I checked my server with netstat command and i saw a connection from my client (Firefox) to server.
My server is CentOS 6.5 with Zimbra 7.1.3
Thank you!

thanks , another solution is to modify the permissions of the sudoers file and comment the line ssh # Defaults requiretty
