Steps to Install and Configure ZCS 8.0.8 :<\/h7><\/p>\n

1. Prepare for Fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for your zimbra mail server and make sure your domain mx record in configured properly.<\/p>\n

2. Configure \/etc\/hosts and hostname<\/a>.<\/p>\n

3. Allow iptables to listen zimbra ports.<\/p>\n

4. Disabled SELINUX :<\/p>\n

\n[root@centos7 ~]# vim \/etc\/sysconfig\/selinux\n<\/pre>\n
Change enforcing<\/strong> to disabled<\/strong> :<\/p>\n
\n# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.\n# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:\n#     enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.\n#     permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.\n#     disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded.\nSELINUX=disabled\n# SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values:\n#     targeted - Targeted processes are protected,\n#     minimum - Modification of targeted policy. Only selected processes are protected.\n#     mls - Multi Level Security protection.\nSELINUXTYPE=targeted\n<\/pre>\n
5. Stop sendmail, postfix or any MTA service :<\/p>\n
\n[root@centos7 ~]# systemctl stop postfix\n[root@centos7 ~]# systemctl disable postfix\n[root@centos7 ~]# systemctl stop sendmail\n[root@centos7 ~]# systemctl disable sendmail\n<\/pre>\n
6. Install the required packages and libraries using the following command :<\/p>\n
\n[root@centos7 ~]# yum install perl perl-core ntpl nmap sudo libidn gmp libaio libstdc++ unzip sysstat sqlite -y\n<\/pre>\n
7. Log in as root to the Zimbra server and cd to the directory where the ZCS Open Source Edition 8.0.8 archive tar file is saved. To unpack the file, type the following commands:<\/p>\n
\n[root@centos7 ~]# tar xzvf zcs-8.0.8_GA_6184.RHEL7_64.20140925165850.tgz\n<\/pre>\n
8. Go to extracted directory and start the installation, do replace example.local to your own domain :<\/p>\n
\n[root@centos7 ~]# cd zcs-8.0.8_GA_6184.RHEL7_64.20140925165850\n[root@centos7 zcs-8.0.8_GA_6184.RHEL7_64.20140925165850]# .\/install.sh --platform-override\n\nOperations logged to \/tmp\/install.log.3552\nChecking for existing installation...\n    zimbra-ldap...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-logger...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-mta...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-snmp...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-store...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-apache...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-spell...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-convertd...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-memcached...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-proxy...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-archiving...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-cluster...NOT FOUND\n    zimbra-core...NOT FOUND\n\n\nPLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE SOFTWARE.\nZIMBRA, INC.
