Jive Install Notes

Jabberd Server

Looking for a Windows XP jabber server that could run on my home computer.

ejabberd 0.7.5 - Oct 12, 2004 - http://jabberstudio.org/projects/ejabberd/releases/view.php?id=670
jabberd2 - March 32, 2005 - requires GPL/src build only - http://jabberd.jabberstudio.org/
jive messenger 2.1.2 - March 6, 2005 - http://www.jivesoftware.org/messenger/

Administration

http://127.0.0.1:9090/setup-index.jsp

Admin Console Port:
videobox
9090
Secure Admin Console Port:
9091
Allows SSL XMPP connections

For the datastore, I chose to use the embedded HSQLDB. This is not recommended for large installations, but for my experimentation it should do fine

I chose MySQL. I would like to look at the tables and additionally if I wanted to show/dump date for this project, I could easily construct a SQL command. I downloaded MySQL 4.1, windows essentials version, from: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/4.1.html.

Installed MySQL admin 1.0.19. Loaded the jive into mysql
mysql -u root -pminijabber2005 jive20050410 < messenger_mysql.sql

Next I did an install, and a start on the service. I think there were two versions of the admin running, so it did not show users. It said somewhere not to trust the GUI and instead use these commands:
# messenger-service /install -- installs the service.
# messenger-service /uninstall -- uninstalls the service.
# messenger-service /start -- starts the service
# messenger-service /stop -- stops the service.
