| =================================================

 | |
| 
 | |
| [Ejabberd](https://www.ejabberd.im/) is a chat server that uses XMPP as messaging protocol that you can use with a large amount of clients.
 | |
| In conjunction with the "xmpp" addon it can be used for a web based chat solution for your users.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Installation
 | |
| ------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Change it's owner to whichever user is running the server, ie. ejabberd
 | |
| 
 | |
|         $ chown ejabberd:ejabberd /path/to/friendica/bin/auth_ejabberd.php
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Change the access mode so it is readable only to the user ejabberd and has exec
 | |
| 
 | |
|         $ chmod 700 /path/to/friendica/bin/auth_ejabberd.php
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Edit your ejabberd.cfg file, comment out your auth_method and add:
 | |
| 
 | |
|         {auth_method, external}.
 | |
|         {extauth_program, "/path/to/friendica/bin/auth_ejabberd.php"}.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Disable the module "mod_register" and disable the registration:
 | |
| 
 | |
|         {access, register, [{deny, all}]}.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Enable BOSH:
 | |
|   - Enable the module "mod_http_bind"
 | |
|   - Edit this line:
 | |
| 
 | |
|         {5280, ejabberd_http,    [captcha, http_poll, http_bind]}
 | |
| 
 | |
|   - In your apache configuration for your site add this line:
 | |
| 
 | |
|         ProxyPass /http-bind http://127.0.0.1:5280/http-bind retry=0
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Restart your ejabberd service, you should be able to login with your friendica credentials
 | |
| 
 | |
| Other hints
 | |
| -----------
 | |
| - if a user has a space or a @ in the nickname, the user has to replace these characters:
 | |
|   - " " (space) is replaced with "%20"
 | |
|   - "@" is replaced with "(a)"
