Installing Ejabberd Jabber Server
Ejabberd is a high-performance Jabber/XMPP server, written in erlang. It comes with a built-in web-based management interface.
To install the server and its components, run:
After it is installed, you need to edit the configuration file found at /etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.cfg.
In the configuration file, you need to add the host name you want the server to use (unless you only want to run on localhost). Change:
hosts, ["localhost","servername.com"].
In addition, you need to create an admin user. Change:
acl, admin, user, "", "localhost".
acl, admin, user, "admin-name", "servername.com".
Now, restart the service:
Finally, set the password for your admin user:
ejabberdctl register admin-name servername.com password
All set. For any further configuration, you can log in to the web-based management panel. In your web browser, go to http://servername.com:5280/admin and enter the admin username and password.
