This is a guide on setting up Zimbra 9 from source on FreeBSD 10. 

 h2. Prepare the Environment 

 * Make sure the system is up to date and refresh the ports tree: 
 <pre> 
 pkg update && pkg upgrade 
 portsnap fetch extract 
 </pre> 

 * Install a few dependencies: 
 <pre> 
 pkg install git maven3 screen 
 </pre> 

 


 h2. Build the Zimbra from source: 

 * Download the current release of Zimbra: 
 <pre> 
 mkdir ~/git 
 cd ~/git 
 git clone --depth 1 https://git.zimbra.com/repos/zimbra-foss/.git 
 </pre> 
 #* *NOTE*: This took nearly 12GB of storage, so be forewarned. 

 * Move into the Zimbra directory and build using maven: 
 <pre> 
 cd zimbra-foss 
 mvn install 
 </pre> 

 * Test run the server: 
 <pre> 
 mvn jetty:run 
 </pre>
