 Description   

I installed the new version of zabbix 2.2 and after starting the service there are no ports in listening and the message is not running Zabbix server appears on the home page of zabbix.
There are no error messages in system logs and is not generated the log file in / var / log / zabbix. The same error occurred using Debian Squeeze amd-64.

this is most likely misconfiguration - please, use zabbix forums, irc and other channels for community support.

(in this case, doublecheck your config file - log path, permissions, db access rights...)

make sure you have selinux disabled or create a rule for zabbix to allow proper operations.

CentOS 6, updated current to 6.3, and v 2.02

We run ipv6 locally, and the telnet check tried to use ipv6 ... I had to add an ip6tables rule

-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 10050:10051 -j ACCEPT

to both:
/etc/sysconfig/iptables
and
/etc/sysconfig/ip6tables

and restarted both ip*tables services

Now I can connect to the port ...

[herrold@centos-6 ~]$ telnet localhost 10051
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.

Connection closed by foreign host.
