As requested, here are my experiences with the install.
Overall, it was pretty smooth as web applications go, especially for a relatively early version.
I did have the following minor issues (which I managed to solve)
---------------------------------------------------------
Error
Application runtime path "/home/www/zurmo/app/protected/runtime" is not valid. Please make sure it is a directory writable by the Web server process.
Fix
chown -R simon:www-data zurmo
chmod -R 775 zurmo
--------------------------------------------
System check 1
needed to install apt-get install php5-imap
needed to edit php.ini add upload_max_filesize & post_max_size setting
skipped no memcache installed
-------------------------------------------------
System check 2
needed to add optimizer_search_depth = 0 to my.cnf (why ?)
needed to add max_sp_recursion_depth = 32
(I had problems here due to misconfiguring my.cnf - I thought I was being clever by creating a [zurmo] section but that resulted in my configuration changes being ignored and me wasting time trying to debug)
more explicit instructions on what *exactly* to copy into my.cnf might have smoothed the path or maybe even an automatic my.cnf updater ?)
Usability Issue: "recheck system" should remember passwords / settings (or not resturn to previous page)
Other than that, no problems.
