"The currently available ejabberd contrib through the sme7contribs repo will not work on SME8. It installs, but the config files and the issues above will make it fail to function properly.

The original author (JP-LC) has indicated that he has no time to update the contrib in the foreseeable future due to other priorities. Any takers to update the contrib? Especially when we are full throttle on SME9"

cd /etc/e-smith/locale/fr/etc/e-smith/web/functions

cp ejabberd ejabberd.iso

* Adjust user/permissions (see above forum thread)

/usr/bin/iconv -f ISO-8559-1 -t UTF-8 ejabberd.iso > ejabberd

* Adjust startup script (/sbin/e-smith/ejabberdctl) for sanity check 32 or 64 bit (/lib/ or /lib64)

* Adjust templates that create /etc/ejabberd.cfg

/etc/e-smith/events/actions/navigation-conf

* Double check ejabberdctl in both /usr/bin and /sbin/e-smith (/usr/bin is default ejabberd install, /sbin/e-smith is used by server-manager)

 

 

Needed until new utf-8 ejabberd contrib release.}}
