It is an open source, fault tolerant server thet is programmed in Erlang.For more explanat. I am not focused on installation in this article, just mention about config SSL.

#Ejabberd installation how to#

The first step is to create a new ansible playbook for this project (as long as you don’t have one yet). This video explains how to install eJabberd XMPP server in Ubuntu. Noted, for valid SSL, you need to buy one domain for Ejabberd server. I’ll show you how to use it in this blog post, but we won’t go into details about ansible. My ansible role is publicly available on my GitLab instance. On 9th January, I gave a talk about this at the XMPP Meetup. Recently I also did some real abstraction, so now only some config options would need to be changed to get the -server. Later I based on the ansible playbook for moving my own server. The result was nice, but still very server specific. You must at least set this option: var SITENAME '' Copy to www Now you can copy the JWChat directory to its final destination. Configure JWChat Edit config.js to suit your needs. Because we didn’t want to do all the setup multiple times (and researching everything after forgetting everything), I came up with the idea of using ansible to automate everything. Download a pre-generated package of JWChat and unpack it.

Besides the internal server we also set up the domain (youth organization chat) to be opened for free registration later. It was already clear that we’ll first test the XMPP server on a small (Hetzner) cloud server and later move it to a larger one as the project grows. Then, in July I got a small job to install an XMPP server for the DBJR (Deutscher Bundesjugendring). I also imported the database from a friend of mine, who hosted his server ( ) on a Raspberry Pi before. I read the ejabberd documentation in detail to enable all useful features and to get the nearly perfect server config. As you would expect I did that completely manually, so first running apt get install ejabberd, then editing the config file and so on. It contains configuration settings in the YML format.

Follow these steps to configure the Ejabberd installation: Open the ejabberd.yml file. On the Ubuntu server, it should be /opt/ejabberd-version/conf. If your module has a range of functionality (installation, configuration, management, etc.) this is the time to mention it. The file is located under /etc/prosody/conf.d/.lua VirtualHost " April last year I setup the kaidan.im XMPP server with ejabberd. Ejabberd configuration files are located under the conf directory in the Ejabberd installation. Looking at the prosody configuration file that comes with Jitsi's bundled prosody we can see that Jitsi Meet requires the XMPP server to serve two different virtual hosts. In the end both should be equally suited for the job. Since I already run a personal ejabberd XMPP server and don't have any virtualization tools at hands, I wanted to make jitsi-meet use ejabberd instead of prosody.

Otherwise you'll have to do some manual configuration ahead of you. That means if you want to have the simple easy setup experience, your server must not already run another XMPP server. Part of the mix is a prosody XMPP server that is used for signalling. Jitsi Meet is a suite of different components that all play together (see Jitsi Meet manual). Simply add the jitsi repository to your package manager and (in case of debian based systems) type sudo apt-get install jitsi-meet The installer will guide you through most of the process (setting up nginx / apache, installing dependencies, even do the letsencrypt setup) and in the end you can start video calling! The quick start guide does a better job explaining this than I do. The installation of Jitsi Meet is super straight forward – if you have a dedicated server sitting around.

No client software is needed at all (except mobile devices). It enables you to create a conference room from within your browser for which you can then share a link to your coworkers. A popular free and open source tool for creating video conferences similar to Google's hangouts is Jitsi Meet. Since the corona virus is forcing many of us into home office there is a high demand for video conference solutions.
