zimbra 9 install issue

[snowy]

the install fails saying my /etc.hsost file is incorrectly set up however it is set up fine and i can install zimbra 8.15 no problem.

Forward and revers dns are set up correctly.

ERROR: Installation can not proceeed. Please fix your /etc/hosts file
to contain:

<ip> <FQHN> <HN>

Where <IP> is the ip address of the host,
<FQHN> is the FULLY QUALIFIED host name, and
<HN> is the (optional) hostname-only portion

I think we know what the error message says. It would be more useful if you post the contents of your hosts file?

192.168.100.94 newmail.XXX.com newmail

...is this the whole content?
No localhost entry?

You beat me to it.

This is covered in the Split DNS wiki article: https://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Split_D...c.2Fhosts_file

Yes I set that up with dnsmasq and it all looks fine. I installed 8.15 fine.

It's the full contents of the hosts file that's of interest, just for our confirmation.

It was dns odd it was fine before and then wasn't have double checked and network manager got in the way disabled it with

echo -e "[main]\ndns=none" > /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/no-dns.conf
systemctl restart NetworkManager.service
