Ok, that seemed to work. I'm logged into ejabberd. I'll post here if I have any other issues.

Thanks for your help and I hope you weren't in hurricane Irene's path this weekend :) .

Just did, I found a bunch of these: erl_crash_20110825-102419.dump

How can I attach one here? Or can I just dump it all here?

This is lame/weird. I just tried editing it and it said that I can't because another app could possibly be using that file.

Thanks for your reply.

I looked at the processes tab in my Windows Task Manager and have epmd.exe and erl.exe running. Are beam.exe and werl.exe not starting and this is causing the problem? How can I resolve this?

When I tried creating the user from the console, this is the issue that I ran into:

C:\Program Files\ejabberd-2.1.8\bin>ejabberdctl register admin localhost admin
Can't register user admin@localhost at node ejabberd@localhost: not_allowed
Commands to start an ejabberd node:
  start  Start an ejabberd node in server mode
  debug  Attach an interactive Erlang shell to a running ejabberd node
  live   Start an ejabberd node in live (interactive) mode

So I tried running the installer (on Windows 7 Enterprise), all went well up until the very end and I get this:

---------------------------
Error
---------------------------
Error running Post Install Script.
The installation may have not completed correctly

OK
---------------------------

Why?

There are many problems that provide this same error report, so it is very difficult to know what went wrong during your installation. Try to uninstall and remove ejabberd, stop processes: beam erl werl epmd

On the other hand, if installation completion fails, but ejabberd later works perfectly, you can continue using it anyway :)

Not only that, but when I try to log into the admin site (which is hosted locally), it says that the password that I previously set is not recognized, again, why?

Because the installation didn't complete, the account was not created. That isn't a big problem: you can create the account manually using ejabberdctl shell program, or using a Jabber client.
