total users or concurrent online users

1) Has anyone used the windows version of this for a very busy server? (10,000+)

10.000+... but total users or concurrent online users? If Total, it's not a problem. But if you want around 10.000 concurrent online users you will need devpoll/kpoll support on your operating system and Erlang must support that. Without devpoll, the CPU would spend more time on network stuff than on ejabberd! That means you need FreeBSD, Apple Mac OS X (maybe other OSs), but Linux or Windows will not work.

4) Any other information about running ejabberd on windows I would love, I am having trouble finding much info on it.

Once you start it for the first time, the administration is done editing ejabberd.cfg, the webadmin... and that's the same on all OSs.

I would like to install and

I would like to install and run ejabberd on windows 2003. I have followed the directions (installed erl and openssl first) but I still get a lot of errors when I run the console.

Do you need to compile it from source? If not you can try the binary installer for Windows.

3) Can I use SQL 2005 for my database? If so how hard is that to convert.

ATM the ODBC support to connect to SQL databases is only tested with PostgreSQL. Hence, we are not sure if it works with other SQL servers too (but it should hopefully). You are welcome to share your test results of your database.
