The author of that ultimatum later said in a thread in the mailing list:

mod_muc_log issues

Hi,
I think I agree with this user. There has to be a clearer explanation for this. Enabling chatroom logging from a muc supported client has worked for me but it logs this information on the client system. One would think that that "{outdir, "/var/www/muclogs"}," directs the logs to that location but it has not worked for me.
Am I missing something here? See my mod_muc_log section below

{modules,
[
....
{mod_muc_log,[
{access_log, muc_admin},
{allow_room_log, true},
{outdir, "/var/www/muclogs"},
{dirtype, plain},
{timezone, universal},
{top_link, {"http://www.jabber.ru/", "Jabber.ru"}}
]},
....
]},

This is one of the deal makers or breakers in adopting this in our office. If ejabberd can't log chatrooms, conferences etc to "outdir" We will move to something else.
Any help, assistance or direction will be appreciated.

Thanks
Augustine

The HTML file and the directories are created by ejabberd only when a room is configured to log messages, and somebody chats in that room.

Also remember this:
"Note that, by default, chatrooms are not logged. You must enable the option in the chatroom. For that you can use a Jabber client that supports MUC (like Psi, Gajim or Tkabber)."

I am also tried this, but not creating chat log file. There is no error file in ejabberd.log and sasl.log file. Could you please tell me the steps to enable the mod_muc_log. i refered this http://www.process-one.net/en/ejabberd/guide_en#htoc45

Check log files. Enable the option in the chatroom

I guess in your ejabberd.cfg you added mod_muc_log inside of the 'modules' section, like this:

{modules, [
  ...
  {mod_muc_log, [
    {access_log, muc},
    {cssfile, false},
    {dirtype, subdirs},
    {outdir, "/var/www/muclogs"},
    {timezone, local}
  ]},
  ...
]}.

You should check ejabberd log files (ejabberd.log and sasl.log) because maybe they report some error during ejabberd start, or when a user chats in a room and the server attempts to create the log file.

Note that, by default, chatrooms are not logged. You must enable the option in the chatroom. For that you can use a Jabber client that supports MUC (like Psi, Gajim or Tkabber).

It is also possible to define that logging for new chatrooms is enabled by default. Read the ejabberd Guide for more on this possibility.
