It looks like this is a general Java VM on Linux problem. If you search for "Can't load IA 32-bit .so on a IA 32-bit platform" you will find the information. So far for Linux support we have only tested on Ubuntu x86 32bit.
However, this issue should not exist on Windows and Mac. Could you tell me what errors you are getting from your Windows and Mac installations?

Ok this might be solved OR old but here's what some testing has found with me and a few machines. First can you verify what version of java you have?
This is important ;-) make sure you are running REAL java and not the open source version!! if you have a symlink of /usr/bin/java that points to /etc/alternatives/java ... there is your problem for sure (I got the exact same errors you did when I tried the de-facto standard "java" provided by CentOS 4.4 which is actually

java version "1.4.2"

gij (GNU libgcj) 

This will not work. Try running java -verion and post your output here.

Dear SpEnTBoY/Lonny
I have encountered the same errors as member Ju-Pao while trying to install Zimbra Desktop.
I am on AMD Athlon XP /Ubuntu 6.06 LTS/Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-28-386/

256 MB Ram.
the java -version gives me the following output..

java -version

java version "1.4.2-02"

Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build Blackdown-1.4.2-02)

Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build Blackdown-1.4.2-02, mixed mode)

thanx in advance....

My suggestion is to go to java.sun.com and install java from there. I haven't had any luck with blackdown either ;)
Here is my output from java -version:

# java -version

java version "1.6.0_01"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_01-b06)

Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0_01-b06, mixed mode, sharing)

Hi All,
I am able to use the Desktop succesfully on my windows box but on the linux one ... it doesnt startup at all.

No big deal :) ... I did the same thing on a different machine after I posted ... then realized it was a different machine that didn't have java installed :D
Don't forget to make sure that the new path to your jre is exported too ;)

Dear SpEnTBoY,
I managed to install java 1.6 via apt-get
This is the output of the java -version:

# java -version

java version "1.6.0"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b105)

Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0-b105, mixed mode, sharing)

But still zimbra desktop core service does'nt initialize... and exits with the following error:

# ./zdesktop_linux_x86_0_36.sh

Unpacking JRE ...

Preparing JRE ...

Starting Installer ...

/usr/share/themes/Clearlooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:49: Engine "clearlooks" is unsupported, ignoring

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient).

log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

Error: invoke Connection refused, server: localhost

1. Is there any problem with the log4j - i tried reinstalling it but the liblog4j-doc returns an error...
2. Zimbra does not clearly spell out all dependencies--- or minimum requriements...
any guidance will be highly appreciated..... thanx in advance...
