Installation issues on CentOS4.4 with existing Tomcat server

[obrien.dan]

Hello all,

Hello all I've been trying to install Scalix 11.0.4 CE, on my webserver and I've been having some issues. I run the scalix-installer and do a full install, accepting all the defaults and that runs fine.
After installation is complete however, I cannot access any of my jsp pages (static HTML and PHP pages load fine) and I cannot access any of the Scalix pages (eg. http://myhost.com/sac /webmail etc). http://myhost.com/Scalix/rw seems to at least load the front page, but when I try to login it just sits on "loading page" forever.
Near as I can tell there's a conflict between scalix-tomcat and my, pre-existing instance of tomcat. Has anyone seen a similar issue? Does / has anyone used a pre-existing instance of tomcat instead of the scalix-tomcat that comes bundled with the software?

My Setup
CentOS: 4.4
Apache: 2.0.52
Tomcat: 5.5.20
mod_jk: 1.2.21
Java: 1.5.0[/b]

Hi!

Its all about the port being used by tomcat's, Scalix Tomcat uses port 80. Run the Scalix installer and make it to use some other port may be 81 instead, and try to access the server
i.e. http://your-server:81/sac etc.

See if this helps.

Thanks,
Subir

Nope, that didn't work either. In the interim I've decided to start with just getting smtp/pop (no web interface) working 1st, and in so far i haven't been able to get even that working. I did an install of scalix server, management and the postgres db server. I've gotten it all setup and I can send mail via Thunderbird, from my user account but I can't receive mail at all.

I ran omstat -a and saw that SMTP Relay wasn't starting. I found the following in /var/opt/scalix/nx/s/logs/fatal

Code: Select all

ERROR                   SMTP Relay    (SMTPD Relay Pr) Thu Jun 14 10:32:20 2007
[OM.DMON 2171] The SMTP Relay could not listen on port 25.
Pid of logging process: 26005


Upon further research I found that some hacked version of sendmail, installed by the company i lease the server from, was running. So i disabled that restarted Scalix, but that still didn't work.

I tried telnet'ing to my server (telnet myhost.com 25) and everything seems to be ok,

Code: Select all

But I never receive the message (I've also tried from various other email accounts ((my work account, gmail, hotmail etc))). Has anyone run into similar issues? How can I increase the log level and where exactly do i find the log file?[/code]
