Talk:Openfire

Start the Openfire Messaging Server

/etc/rc.d/init.d/openfire start

I believe it should be

cd /opt/openfire/bin

sh openfire.sh

or

./openfire.sh

to start openfire

I have also noticed that the openfire service is not loading on startup

if i was to access or go to http://yourserver:9090 the admin console will not load, only if I was to load it manually by running the following commands, this has to be done each time after a reboot or opening and closing the command console

cd /opt/openfire/bin

./openfire.sh

or sh openfire.sh

I'm trying to locate my old notes, I'm sure the only way I got around this was to load openfire from source and install from that way, will double check that

I do remember, there was a reason why I used the source files to install openfire, it was because of the reasone above, the service will not load on startup, even though it is in /etc/rc.d/rc7.d

May I ask, what was wrong with setup procedures that i had in the first place
