Install in OX free server version on Centos 5

Checked the local host did not fix the issue.

Thanks for the help but after checking the localhost it still is not installing.

I encountered the same problem during a OX6/Centos 5.2 installation.

The problem is very simple - the host localhost is unknown.

Verify the /etc/hosts file. The entry
127.0.0.1 localhost
is missing. Add the entry, and OX will work.

This is a strange problem - is seems the installer makes this boob if you disable IP 6 during the installation.

I am having some trouble with getting this to install correctly. I would appreciate any help. Thanks

Here is the commands I am using:

/etc/init.d/mysqld start

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/initconfigdb -a -i --configdb-pass=NTXemailcfg

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/oxinstaller --servername=oxserver --configdb-pass=NTXemailcfg \
--master-pass=NTXEadmin

/etc/init.d/open-xchange-admin start

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/registerserver -n oxserver -A NTXEadmin -P NTXemail

mkdir /var/opt/filestore

chown open-xchangepen-xchange /var/opt/filestore

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/registerfilestore -A NTXEadmin -P NTXemail -t file:///var
/opt/filestore

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/registerdatabase -A NTXEadmin -P NTXemail -n oxservere -p NTXemail -m true

Here are the errors:
