You can manually check what's wrong with your startup using the command<br /> <code>su ejabberd -c &quot;ejabberdctl live&quot;</code><br /> (effectively doing the same thing that the script does) and then check the error output, but the most probable cause is that your server data files are owned by root, not by ejabberd. I did it like this:</p> <div class="codeblock"><code>chown ejabberd /var/spool/ejabberd<br />chown ejabberd /var/spool/ejabberd/*<br />chown ejabberd /var/spool/ejabberd/.erlang.cookie</code></div> <p>(their mode must be 0700).</p> <p>Regards, Mike.</p> Sun, 08 Nov 2009 00:10:23 +0000 mikekaganski comment 54836 at https://www.ejabberd.im
