Detailed steps for installing the Jabberd2 server in Ubuntu12.04

Install Jabberd2

Run the following command on the terminal to install Jabberd2:

Sudo apt-get install jabberd2

Configuration

Modify the/etc/jabberd2/sm. xml file

1. Modify the server address (row 6th ):

6 <id> localhost. localdomain </id>
Replace localhost. localdomain with your server address.

For example:

6 <id> 192.168.1.200 </id>

2. Modify the database information and find the <mysql> module under <storage> (lines 70th to 112nd)

70 <storage>
71 <! -- Dynamic storage modules path -->
72 <path>/usr/lib/jabberd2 </path>
73
74 <! -- By default, we use the MySQL driver for all storage -->
75 <driver> mysql </driver>
76
······
101 <! -- MySQL driver configuration -->
102 <mysql>
103 <! -- Database server host and port -->
104 105 <port> 3306 </port>
106
107 <! -- Database name -->
108 <dbname> jabberd2 </dbname>
109
110 <! -- Database username and password -->
111 <user> jabberd2 </user>
112 <pass> secret </pass>

Replace <dbname>, <user>, and <pass> with your own database name, database username, and database password.

For example:

107 <! -- Database name -->
108 <dbname> MY_DB_NAME </dbname>
109
110 <! -- Database username and password -->
111 <user> MY_DB_USERNAME </user>
112 <pass> MY_DB_PASSWORD </pass>

Modify the/etc/jabberd2/c2s. xml file

1. Modify the server address and find the following in the <local> module: (row 125th)

125 <id register-enable = 'true'> localhost. localdomain </id>

Replace it with your own server address:

125 <id register-enable = 'true'> 192.168.1.200 </id>

2. Modify the database information, in the <mysql> module of <authreg> (lines 320th to 383)

320 <authreg>
321 <! -- Dynamic authreg modules path -->
322 <path>/usr/lib/jabberd2 </path>
323
324 <! -- Backend module to use -->
325 <module> mysql </module>
······
372 <! -- MySQL module configuration -->
373 <mysql>
374 <! -- Database server host and port -->
375 376 <port> 3306 </port>
377
378 <! -- Database name -->
379 <dbname> jabberd2 </dbname>
380
381 <! -- Database username and password -->
382 <user> jabberd2 </user>
383 <pass> secret </pass>

Replace <dbname>, <user>, and <pass> with your own database name, database username, and database password.

For example:

107 <! -- Database name -->
108 <dbname> MY_DB_NAME </dbname>
109
110 <! -- Database username and password -->
111 <user> MY_DB_USERNAME </user>
112 <pass> MY_DB_PASSWORD </pass>
