Service Zabbix-Server start Error

[sasquacz1]

Hi,

I installed Zabbix 3.0.8 on Ubuntu 16.
When I want to run the service zabbix-server shows me this error:

can you past this info :

ll /etc/zabbix

and show the error from /var/log/zabbix/zabbix_server.log

Hi
Thanks for replay

glpi@glpi:~$ ll /etc/zabbix

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13487 Apr 11 13:51 zabbix_server.conf.d

But I dont see a zabbix-server log, only zabbix_agentd log

glpi@glpi:/var/log/zabbix$ ls
zabbix_agentd.log zabbix_agentd.log.1

I find a only old logs from Zabbix 2.4.7

Hello!

Apr 11 13:51:44 glpi zabbix_server[4300]: zabbix_server [4300]: /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf.d/: base path is not a directory)

I'm being pretty obvious here, but is the /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf.d a directory or a file? I don't know how it is done on Ubuntu, but in Centos with Zabbix installed from packages, /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf.d is optional path for added configuration files. This taken in consideration, have a look if this path is somehow mentioned in zabbix_server.conf for "Include" directives.

Ehh.
Thank you for your help !!. As I mentioned, I am an amateur in linux. I just turned off the line to zabbix_server.conf.d And it works !!
