Download the Zimbra Desktop Linux version from following link:
  • http://www.zimbra.com/downloads/zd-downloads.html
Extract the files from the archive using (sudo in this case is very important!):
  • sudo tar xzvf zdesktop_2_0_b10580_linux_i686.tgz
Zimbra
Then cd into that directory:
  • cd zdesktop_2_0_b10580_linux_i686/
Zimbra
And run:
  • sudo perl install.pl
Zimbra
Enter your password and hit return/enter.
Follow the on-screen instructions, if you choose the defaults, you should have a launcher on your desktop, we need to get rid of that and the zdesktop directory in your home folder:
  • cd ~
Zimbra
  • sudo rm -rf zdesktop Desktop/zd.desktop
Zimbra
Then we need to create a new one using:
  • /opt/zimbra/zdesktop/linux/user-install.pl
Zimbra
