Where does the /RPC2 come from?

Maybe from the erlang xmlrpc library.

I've checked to make sure that ejabberd is listening on that port.

You should get something like this:

$ netstat -pnl | grep 4560

Is there something else I need to setup?

I found this PHP script file:

<?
$param=array("host"=>"localhost");
$request = xmlrpc_encode_request('registered_users', $param, (array('encoding' => 'utf-8')));

$context = stream_context_create(array('http' => array(
    'method' => "POST",
    'header' => "User-Agent: XMLRPC::Client mod_xmlrpc\r\n" .
                "Content-Type: text/xml\r\n" .
                "Content-Length: ".strlen($request),
    'content' => $request
)));

$file = file_get_contents("http://127.0.0.1:4560/RPC2", false, $context);

$response = xmlrpc_decode($file);

if (xmlrpc_is_fault($response)) {
    trigger_error("xmlrpc: $response[faultString] ($response[faultCode])");
} else {
    print_r($response);
}
?>

I have two account registered. When i run that script, I get this:

$ php 4504-registered-works.php
Array
(
    [users] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [username] => badlop
                )

            [1] => Array
                (
                    [username] => badlop2
                )

        )

)

I've made sure that ejabberd

I've made sure that ejabberd is listening on port 4560, but I receive this error whenever I try to run a command.

PHP Warning: file_get_contents(http://127.0.0.1:4560/RPC2): failed to open stream: HTTP request

Code

	protected /*string*/ function sendRequest(/*string*/$command,/*array*/$params){
		//check that params is array if not create
		if(!is_array($params)){
			$params = array();
		}
		//$params["user"] = "admin";
		//$params["host"] = "localhost";
		$request = xmlrpc_encode_request($command, $params, (array('encoding' => 'utf-8')));
		$context = stream_context_create(array('http' => array(
			'method' => "POST",
			'header' => "User-Agent: XMLRPC::Client mod_xmlrpc\r\n" .

Seems like now I've run up

Seems like now I've run up against another error:

PHP Warning: file_get_contents(http://127.0.0.1:4560/RPC2): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed!

I've checked to make sure that ejabberd is listening on that port. Is there something else I need to setup? Where does the /RPC2 come from?

I found the compiled files

ashansky — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 17:28:22 +0000

I found the compiled files for the xmerl patch and placed them in ejabberd-x.x.x\lib\kernel-x.x.x\ebin and ejabberd started up normally. Now to see if it works :)
