A reliable mail server is one of the key tools in efficient and secure communication and is paramount for any business. Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) is a trusted solution used by million users worldwide. It offers a full set of collaboration tools while maintaining total control over the security and privacy of email.
This guide will walk you through the steps to set up Zimbra Collaboration Suite 8.0.1, an open-source edition, on a CentOS 6.3 64-bit operating system.
Before we dive into the setup process, it’s important to understand the different types of web servers available. For instance, Apache, Nginx, and LiteSpeed are among the best web servers you can use. Each of these servers has its unique features and benefits, which you can learn more about on our website.
Now, let’s get started with the installation of Zimbra Collaboration Suite 8.0.1 on CentOS 6.3 64-bit.
Setting Up Zimbra Collaboration Suite 8.0.1
Step 1: Download Zimbra Collaboration Suite 8.0.1
First, you need to download Zimbra Collaboration Suite 8.0.1 from the official Zimbra website. You can do this using the wget command as follows:
wget files2.zimbra.com/downloads/8.0.1_GA/zcs-8.0.1_GA_5438.RHEL6_64.20121105164412.tgz
Step 2: Extract Zimbra Collaboration Suite 8.0.1
After downloading the file, extract it using the tar command:
tar xzvf zcs-8.0.1_GA_5438.RHEL6_64.20121105164412.tgz
Step 3: Start the Zimbra Collaboration Suite 8.0.1 Installation
Navigate to the extracted directory and start the installation process:
cd zcs-8.0.1_GA_5438.RHEL6_64.20121105164412
Example:
[root@host1 zcs-8.0.1_GA_5438.RHEL6_64.20121105164412]# ./install.sh --platform-override

You have the option of notifying Zimbra of your installation.
This helps us to track the uptake of the Zimbra Collaboration Server.
The only information that will be transmitted is:
The VERSION of zcs installed (8.0.1_GA_5438_CentOS6_64)
The ADMIN EMAIL ADDRESS created (admin@zimbra.local)
Notify Zimbra of your installation? [Yes] no

Configuration complete - press return to exit
During the installation, you will be prompted to agree to the terms of the software license agreement. After agreeing, the installer will check for prerequisites and installable packages. It will then ask you to select the packages to install.
For a complete setup, install all the available packages, including zimbra-ldap, zimbra-logger, zimbra-mta, zimbra-snmp, zimbra-store, zimbra-apache, zimbra-sp
Step 4: Agree to the Software License Agreement
During the installation, you will be asked to agree to the terms of the software license agreement. After agreeing, the installer will check for prerequisites and installable packages. It will then ask you to select the packages to install.
For a complete setup, install all the available packages, including zimbra-ldap, zimbra-logger, zimbra-mta, zimbra-snmp, zimbra-store, zimbra-apache, zimbra-spell, zimbra-memcached, and zimbra-proxy.
Step 5: Confirm Installation
The system will prompt you to confirm the installation. It will warn you that you’re installing packages on a platform different than the one they were built for. This may or may not work, and your support options may be limited if you choose to continue. If you’re sure you want to proceed, confirm the installation.
Step 6: Installation Process
The installation process will now begin. It will remove any existing Zimbra Collaboration Server, install the necessary packages, and set up the LDAP configuration database.
Step 7: Setting Defaults
Next, the system will attempt to set defaults. If it encounters any DNS errors while resolving your hostname or MX for your domain, it will suggest that the hostname be resolvable via DNS and that the domain name have an MX record configured in DNS.
Step 8: Change Domain Name
If necessary, you can change the domain name during the installation process.
Step 9: Checking for Port Conflicts
The system will check for any port conflicts. If there are no conflicts, the installation process will continue.
Step 10: Main Menu Configuration
Finally, you will be presented with the main menu for common configuration. Follow the prompts to complete the configuration of your Zimbra Collaboration Suite 8.0.1.
Check Status, Restart, Start and Stop Zimbra:
[root@host1 ~]# su - zimbra [zimbra@host1 ~]$ zmcontrol status [zimbra@host1 ~]$ zmcontrol restart [zimbra@host1 ~]$ zmcontrol start [zimbra@host1 ~]$ zmcontrol stop
Please note that this is a general guide and the exact steps may vary depending on your specific requirements and system configuration. Always refer to the official Zimbra documentation or consult with a qualified system administrator if you’re unsure about any steps.
