open-xchange installation problems

[anta]

I installed Open Xchange according to the guide on http://www.open-xchange.com/wiki/ind...Edition_Debian

However, after having finished this guide, it leaves Open Xchange in a half-finished state. No mail server is installed and the admin GUI does not exist. What would be the next step?

I also tried installaing OXchange from source as described in http://wiki.open-xchange.com/wiki/in...e_Installation, however, I'm getting the dreaded "Can't fix Socket is null, cannot connect to 127.0.0.1:57462" error in the log file when running the database initialization routine, with no errors indicating any MySQL login problems on the terminal.

Hi,

well, it's not half finished, Open-Xchange is a Groupware, no Mailserver. You'll have to configure
your prefered mailserver by your own. Those packages are for integration to a existing
environment and for administratiors that already run a mail server and like to enhance it by
a groupware solution without "messing up" their system by installing 3rd party services.
Administration can be done via the command line tools (/opt/open-xchange/sbin) or the native
RMI interface.

Greetings
