Hi,
According to features request on https://features.opensuse.org/306323
: Zimbra Mail Server Support for openSUSE 11.x, I would like to
confirmed that openSUSE 11.x could running Zimbra Mail Server without problem, both version 5.0x and version 6.x.x (tested on version 5.0.18 and version 6.0 RC1), with only a minor changes to bundle perl on Zimbra Binary Installer.
I post the tutorial here : http://vavai.net/2009/08/30/zimbra-6-0-rc1-on-opensuse-11-1/
and also build Zimbra Appliance with SUSEStudio, http://vavai.net/2009/08/31/zimbra-appliance-with-opensuse-11-1-vmwarevirtu albox-image/
As of version 6.0, Zimbra has been dropping openSUSE from their supported distro due to the reason : lower installation on openSUSE. I think it would be a bad idea and bad marketing stuff to let openSUSE as second-class citizen at Zimbra Community, so I try to increase the Zimbra+openSUSE installation statistics by providing the easiest way to install Zimbra on openSUSE.
Huh? Looks like Zimbra is just a groupware application. No reason it wouldn't run on opensuse. It looks very much like an eGroupWare clone. Anything with that much licensing crud and "trial" licensing bs on an open- source package deserves nothing more than rm -rf zimbra. Try eGroupWare. If you really want to try zimbra and are scared because you can't find an "openSuSE" package, just download the source. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
