Zimbra Startup Problem

Question

I installed Zimbra on my computer running windows 7 and then added my all email addresses after this I closed the software and restarted it again since then it is stuck on splash screen. I used Zimbra forum but their support team is very displeased at the first they said I created duplicate post and deleted it and then they apologized as they did it by mistake.

Here is the error log

caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.zimbra.cs.offline.OfflineSyncManager.getStatus(OfflineSyncManager.java:245)
at com.zimbra.cs.offline.OfflineSyncManager.encode(OfflineSyncManager.java:743)

Code:service.FAILURE

Answer 1

From just looking at your error log entries. Zimbra is having an issue with your version of Java.

The part below that says:

java.lang.NullPointerException

Which would indicate that Zimbra is trying to execute something (ie. method on an object) that does not exist in your version of Java and in turn creates errors within Zimbra's code execution on the lines you indicated below.

at com.zimbra.cs.offline.OfflineSyncManager.getStatus(OfflineSyncManager.java:245) at com.zimbra.cs.offline.OfflineSyncManager.encode(OfflineSyncManager.java:743)

Code:service.FAILURE at com.zimbra.common.soap.Soap12Protocol.soapFault(Soap12Protocol.java:88) at com.zimbra.common.soap.SoapTransport.extractBodyElement(SoapTransport.java:303) at com.zimbra.common.soap.SoapTransport.parseSoapResponse(SoapTransport.java:262)

I would try uninstalling Zimbra and then all versions of Java. Restart Windows 7. Install the newest version of Java. Restart Windows 7. Reinstall Zimbra and see if that fixes your issue.
