Thanks badlop - that did the trick.

See quick solution

I found the bug, a quick solution for you, and reported it in a ticket.

Read this and modify yourself that text file: Windows ejabberdctl.cmd only handles up to 4 arguments

add_rosteritem returns strange error

smiley — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 06:11:47 +0000

This is the result I get for the add_roster command:

C:\Program Files\ejabberd-2.1.3\bin>ejabberdctl.cmd add_rosteritem user1 localhost user2 localhost NickName Friends both
Error: the command "add_rosteritem" requires 4 more argument.
  Command Name: add_rosteritem
  Arguments: localuser::string
             localserver::string
             user::string
             server::string
             nick::string
             group::string
             subs::string
  Returns: res::rescode
  Tags: roster
  Description: Add an item to a user's roster
Error: the command "add_rosteritem" requires 4 more argument.

Does this make sense to you badlop?

(solved) mod_admin_extra physical module was missing

I discovered I was missing the physical mod_admin_extra file.

I checked it out of SVN, compiled it, copied it across and now it seems to be working.

add_rosteritem command unknown but mod_admin_extra is present

qu1cksand — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 08:39:11 +0000

Thanks for the reply. mod_admin_extra is already installed but I don't seem to be able to use the add_rosteritem command.

ejabberd@pl-ashley:/opt/ejabberd-2.1.0/bin$ ./ejabberdctl add_rosteritem
Error: command "add_rosteritem" not known.

Module configuration looks like this:

{modules,
[
{mod_adhoc, []},
{mod_admin_extra, []},
{mod_announce, [{access, announce}]}, % requires mod_adhoc
{mod_caps, []},
{mod_configure,[]}, % requires mod_adhoc
{mod_disco, []},
{mod_http_bind,[]},
{mod_last_odbc, []},
{mod_offline_odbc, []},
{mod_privacy, []},
{mod_private, []},
{mod_pubsub, [ % requires mod_caps
{access_createnode, pubsub_createnode},
{ignore_pep_from_offline, true},
{last_item_cache, false},
{plugins, ["flat", "hometree", "pep"]}
]},
{mod_register, []},
{mod_roster_odbc, []},
{mod_shared_roster,[]},
{mod_time, []},
{mod_vcard_odbc, []},
{mod_version, []}
]}.

Am I perhaps missing a module it depends on? Is the syntax documented somewhere?

Many thanks!

If you install

If you install mod_admin_extra, you will be able to call new commands using ejabberdctl, for example add_rosteritem.
