so, the interesting thing its after checked with crypto:start i dont get the error crypto_drv... now i get this:

=INFO REPORT==== 2-Dec-2005::09:00:56 ===
application: ejabberd
exited: "invalid return value from ejabberd_app:start(normal,[]) -> {'EXIT',\n {function_clause,\n [{lists,\n foreach,\n [#Fun,\n undefined]},\n {ejabberd_app,start,2},\n {application_master,start_it_old,4}]}}"
type: temporary

=ERROR REPORT==== 2-Dec-2005::09:00:56 ===
Mnesia(ejabberd@mail): ** ERROR ** mnesia_controller got unexpected info: {'EXIT',
<0.216.0>,
killed}

so... with ejabberdctl ejabberd@mail status i get "started" now im gonna see if works even with the errors...

i've checked with

i've checked with crypto:start() and this is what i get

Eshell V5.4.10 (abort with ^G)
1> crypto:start().
ok
2> q().
ok
3> mail:~ #

so i guess the crypto its installed, besides,

rpm -ivh openssl-devel-0.9.7d-15.i586.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
package openssl-devel-0.9.7d-15 is already installed

im sure that i've installed all packages before compiling erlang, and with:

locate crypto_drv
/usr/local/erlang/otp-r10b/otp_src_R10B-8/lib/crypto/c_src/crypto_drv.c
/usr/local/erlang/otp-r10b/otp_src_R10B-8/lib/crypto/priv/lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/crypto_drv.so
/usr/local/erlang/otp-r10b/otp_src_R10B-8/lib/crypto/priv/obj/i686-pc-linux-gnu/crypto_drv.o
/usr/local/lib/erlang/lib/crypto-1.4/priv/lib/crypto_drv.so
/usr/local/lib/erlang/lib/crypto-1.4/priv/obj/crypto_drv.o

so its posible that some path its incorrect?

You may need to install

You may need to install OpenSSL or related packages, then compile Erlang and ejabberd.

The development package of OpenSSL is what you need for sure.

install openssl and recompile

'Crypto' is a library included in Erlang/OTP. If you don't have the requirements (OpenSSL, I guess) the compilation of Erlang will success but you will not have the library.

Since ejabberd requires it, make sure Erlang includes it, and it is available. You may need to install OpenSSL or related packages, then compile Erlang and ejabberd.

Check if the Crypto library is available:

$ erl
Erlang (BEAM) emulator version 5.4.10 [source] [hipe]

Eshell V5.4.10  (abort with ^G)
1> crypto:start().
ok
2> q().
ok
