This jabberd update requires use of -h for setting the host if the hostname of the server is different from the jabber hostname. This is a really annoying problem since the --help output doesn't mention the option. # jabberd --help Usage: jabberd [params] Optional Parameters: -c configuration file -D enable debug output (disables background) -H location of home folder -B background the server process -Z debug zones -v server version -V server version Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start jabberd 2.Attempt logging in Actual Results: Without using the -h flag, an error like this will be created: 20050602T20:48:34: [notice] (im.sampledomain.com): bouncing a routed packet to wendall@im.sampledomain.com from 13@c2s/80DDD88: Internal Delivery Error Expected Results: I'd expect that this would have a configuration option in /etc/conf.d/jabber that would allow for addiontion of the hostname in use with the jabber server.
I was clued into this undocumented flag here: http://mail.jabber.org/pipermail/jadmin/2003-October/012511.html HTH Wendall
Ok, this doesn't entirely resolve the issue. We use more than one hostname for jabber. I don't know if there can be multiple hosts for the -h flag researching now. Also, line 20 needs >/dev/null 2>&1 at the end or jabberd spews crap to the console. Wendall
Ok, resolved the issue. multiple.xml will no longer work with the following: <host><jabberd:cmdline flag="h">localhost</jabberd:cmdline></host> It must be a list like this: <host>im.domain1.com</host><host>im.domain2.com</host> Please at least add >/dev/null 2>&1 to line 20 in the init script :) Thanks, Wendall
