Can´t start the server.

[brunosimoes]

Hello,

I´m new at Zabbix and I´m doing my firt instalation under an Ubuntu 9.10. I have installed the packages with aptitude, and done amo changes in the .conf files.
When I try to initialize the server, I get the following message in the server log:

5422:20100223:141434 Listener failed with error: zbx_tcp_listen() Fatal error: unable to serve on any address. [[127.0.0.1]:10051].

Does this mean the I don´t have the ODBC for MySQL installed?

Thankx

At the end of the line I have the following message:

I've never used apt-get to do the server install, so I can't help you there... but if you would like to try doing it through compiling the code, I can send you good instructions for doing this on Ubuntu.

I also question your choice of using version 1.6.4. If you want to install the 1.6.x series, go with 1.6.7. The most recent stable release is version 1.8.1

Anyway, if you want the compile/install directions I have, drop me a private message and include your e-mail address.
