===Description===
 +
Openfire (formerly Wildfire) is a real time collaboration (RTC) server dual-licensed under the Open Source GPL and commercially. It uses the only widely adopted open protocol for instant messaging, XMPP (also called Jabber). Openfire is easy to setup and administer, but offers rock-solid security and performance.
    +
== Prerequisite for SME 9.x ==
 +
The Java Runtime Environment included in the Openfire RPM requires that an additional library be installed 64-bit versions of SME 9.0.  To install it, run
 +
# yum install glibc.i686
   −
== Openfire 3.4.1 Howto ==

== Download and install Openfire ==

It uses the only widely adopted open protocol for instant messaging, XMPP (also called Jabber). Openfire is incredibly easy to setup and administer, but offers rock-solid security and performance.
+
You can find the latest version of Openfire at http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloads/index.jsp. Download the RPM to your SME server, then run
    +
# yum install openfire-*.rpm
   −
Download jre-6u3-linux-i586-rpm.bin & Openfire 3.4.1
+
== Create the Database ==
   −
Go to http://www.java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp and download  the Linux RPM (self-extracting file)
+
To create the Openfire Database, you'll need to perform each of the following steps:  
 
  −
copy or move jre-6u1-linux-i586-rpm.bin into /tmp
  −
 
  −
cd /tmp
     −
  chmod a+x jre-6u1-linux-i586-rpm.bin
+
  # mysqladmin create openfiredb
 +
# mysql -e "grant all privileges on openfiredb.* to openfireuser@localhost identified by 'yourpassword'"
 +
# mysql -e "flush privileges"
   −
sh jre-6u1-linux-i586-rpm.bin
+
{{Warning box|You may wish to alter the "openfireuser" and "yourpassword" information in the grant privileges line above. Be sure to remember to remember what you used as the web manager will ask you for it!}}
   −
== Download and install Openfire ==
+
Edit the database schema (this change does not seem to be necessary with SME 9.0 and Openfire 3.9.3):
   −
Go to http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloads/index.jsp and click on linux, download the latest openfire rpm and install:
+
# cd /opt/openfire/resources/database
 +
# nano openfire_mysql.sql
   −
# yum localinstall openfire-3.4.1-1.i386.rpm
+
At line 57 starts:
   −
== Create the Database ==
+
CREATE TABLE ofRoster (
 +
  rosterID              BIGINT          NOT NULL,
 +
  username              VARCHAR(64)    NOT NULL,
 +
  jid                  VARCHAR(1024)  NOT NULL,
   −
To create the Openfire Database, you'll need to perform each of the following steps:  
+
Change the jid line from 1024 to 255 as shown:
   −
mysqladmin create openfiredb
+
  jid                  VARCHAR(255)    NOT NULL,
   −
mysql -e "grant all privileges on openfiredb.* to openfireuser@localhost identified by 'yourpassword'"
+
Import the revised database schema:
   −
  mysql -e "flush privileges"
+
  # mysql openfiredb < openfire_mysql.sql
 
  −
cd /opt/openfire/resources/database
  −
 
  −
mysql openfiredb < openfire_mysql.sql
  −
 
  −
IMPORTANT:  You may wish to alter the "openfireuser" and "yourpassword" information in the grant privileges line above.  BE SURE TO REMEMBER WHAT YOU USED AS THE WEB MANAGER WILL ASK YOU FOR IT!

== Openfire daemon ==
+
== LDAP Authentication ==
 +
Openfire can be configured to authenticate users through your SME Server's OpenLDAP server.  This will allow you to use a single user and password source, rather than needing to maintain two or more separate databases.  This is recommended unless you have a particular reason to want a separate user list for your Openfire installation.  To begin, on the Profile Settings screen, select '''Directory Server (LDAP)''':
 +
 
 +
[[Image:Openfire_ldap_1.png]]
 +
 
 +
Fill in the Connection Settings screen as shown below, replacing '''yourdomain''' and '''tld''' with your primary domain name and top-level domain, as appropriate.  For example, if your domain were example.com, you'd enter '''dc=example,dc=com'''.  For the password field, enter your admin user's password.
 +
 
 +

Click '''Test Settings''' to make sure you're able to connect.  Then click '''Save & Continue'''.
 +
 
 +
On the User Mapping page, just scroll to the bottom and click '''Save & Continue'''.
