Error when start zimbra by script
 

i install zimbra mail zcs 8.0.6 on ubuntu server 12.04
i have a script to backup:
#!/bin/sh
DIR_SRC=/opt/zimbra
DIR_DST=/bkpZimbra
FILE="Backup_Zimbra_"`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`".tar.gz"

#stop zimbra
echo "Stop Zimbra service"
sudo -u zimbra /opt/zimbra/bin/zmcontrol stop

#stop pending zimbra process
echo "Kill other pending zimbra process"
ps auxww | awk '{print $1" "$2}' | grep zimbra | kill -9 `awk '{print $2}'`

#generate backup file
echo "Begin generate back up file. Waitting ....."
tar cpzf ${DIR_DST}/${FILE} ${DIR_SRC}
echo "Back up file done. "

#put backup an an ftp server
echo "Begin upload to FTP. Waitting"
curl -T ${DIR_DST}/${FILE} ftp://192.168.1.100 -u $USERNAME:$PASSWORD
echo "Upload back up file to FTP done"

#clean backup file
echo "Deleting uploaded file"
rm -f ${DIR_DST}/${FILE}
echo "Delete done"

#start zimbra
sudo -u zimbra /opt/zimbra/bin/zmcontrol start
echo "Back up done"

When th script start zimbra i have a problem with "logger" like this:
Host ubuntu.local
Starting ldap...Done.
Starting zmconfigd...Done.
Starting logger...Failed.
Starting logswatch...failed.


Starting mailbox...Done.
Starting antispam...Done.
Starting antivirus...Done.
Starting opendkim...Done.
Starting snmp...Done.
Starting spell...Done.
Starting mta...Done.
Starting stats...Done.

But when i start zimbra by command like this, it works. i don't understand to fix the problem above

root@ubuntu:~# su zimbra
zimbra@ubuntu:/root$ zmcontrol start
Host ubuntu.local
Starting zmconfigd...Done.
Starting logger...Done.
Starting mailbox...Done.
Starting antispam...Done.
Starting antivirus...Done.
Starting opendkim...Done.
Starting snmp...Done.
Starting spell...Done.
Starting mta...Done.
Starting stats...Done.

Hi,

Better use su instead of sudo in the stop/start zimbra commands. I.e replace:
with:

I tried your code but the same error.

Huh, I don't know why zimbra wants to read that file.
I'm using this backup script on Centos and it works fine. Perhaps you could give it a try.
