Ubuntu Server 9.04 + Zimbra

TRANSLATION
********************************
Well, currently, Zimbra Server only supports Ubuntu Server version 8.04 LTS. In my case, I'm using Ubuntu Server 9.04.
We are going to start by using the latest sources (the last beta), to construct the packages for Ubuntu Server 9.04. Obviously, I will supply at the end of this tutorial the package (tgz), RTU (Ready To Use).
This tutorial was also based on: http://wiki.zimbra.com/index.php?title=Building_Zimbra_using_Perforce
Let's start by downloading the client « p4″ (Perforce), which is the utils version.
sudo wget -O /usr/local/bin/p4 'http://www.perforce.com/downloads/ perforce/r08.2/bin.linux26x86_64/p4' sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/p4
Installation of dependencies :
sudo aptitude install lsb libtool libltdl7-dev zlib-bin flex libpcre3-dev g++ libncurses5-dev sudo aptitude install libperl-dev zlibc sudo fetchmail libgmp3c2 openssl ant bison sudo aptitude install libexpat-dev libpopt-dev
Environment preparation:
export P4PORT=codes.zimbra.com:2666 export BUILD_HOME="/home/public/p4/zcs" export P4EDITOR=vim export JAVA_HOME=/home/public/p4/main/jdk1.5.0_19 export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH export ANT_HOME=/usr/share/ant sudo mkdir -p /home/public/p4 sudo chown -R $USER: /home/public
Download the sources (add the -f to do a simple update of the most current sources):
p4 -u public -P public1234 -c public-view sync -f //depot/zcs/main/...
Now let's download the main JAVA version (1.5) :
In this page : http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp
You should correctly insert your email address, One email will be sent to your address in order to download JAVA.
Next we are going to create Zimbra PACK:
cd /home/public/p4/main chmod +x $HOME/Bureau/jdk-1_5_0_19-linux-amd64.bin $HOME/Bureau/jdk-1_5_0_19-linux-amd64.bin mkdir -p ThirdPartyBuilds/x86_64/java/ tar zcf ThirdPartyBuilds/x86_64/java/jdk1.5.0_19.tgz jdk1.5.0_19 sudo ln -s $PWD/jdk1.5.0_19 /usr/local/java bash -l
Next we will create the Zimbra user:
sudo adduser --home /opt/zimbra zimbra sudo chown -R $USER: /opt/zimbra
Well, Zimbra does not support UBUNTU9, but UBUNTU8 is fully supported. Or this tutorial would not be useful. Therefore we are going to modify the sources to make Zimbra compatible withUBUNTU9.
Here's the magical command to edit all the files that need to be modified:
cp ./ZimbraBuild/defs/UBUNTU8_64.def ./ZimbraBuild/defs/UBUNTU9_64.def cp ./ZimbraBuild/defs/UBUNTU8.def ./ZimbraBuild/defs/UBUNTU9.def gvim $(grep UBUNTU8 . -Rl | xargs grep -L UBUNTU9)
To modify the files a give the correct settings location in UBUNTU9 instead of UBUNTU8. In gvim to save, use « :w! », to close the file and go to the next one « :bd ».
Where it's written « perl-5.8.8″, it should read « perl5.10.0″.
Where it's written « libperl-5.8″, it should read « libperl5.10″.
Do not modify the files UBUNTU8.def et UBUNTU8_64.def.
Change the script script « ./ZimbraBuild/rpmconf/Build/get_plat_tag.sh » to include UBUNTU9 :
Search « DISTRIB_RELEASE=8″, create a copy of the entry and add under « DISTRIB_RELEASE=9″.
When launching the script, this should be the result :
ZimbraBuild/rpmconf/Build/get_plat_tag.sh UBUNTU9_64
Change the script: « ThirdParty/nginx/nginx-0.5.37-zimbra/auto/cc/gcc ».
Search « CFLAGS= … Werror » and add a custom comment to this line.
Launch the software compilation:
ThirdParty/buildThirdParty.sh -c
Now, let's build Zimbra,
cp -f ZimbraBuild/defs/UBUNTU8_64.def ZimbraBuild/defs/UBUNTU9_64.def cp -f ZimbraBuild/defs/UBUNTU8.def ZimbraBuild/defs/UBUNTU9.def ./ZimbraBuild/buildZCS.sh
The installation pack can be found inside the folder ZimbraBuild/zcs-*. The only thing missing is just to launch the installation script in your server!
Here's my compiled version for Ubuntu Server 9.04 64 bits :
