ejabberd - Comments for "Any way to reload without restarting?"

The ejabberd.cfg isn't

The ejabberd.cfg isn't ignored, but there can be some "strange" things: for example, if you add a module in .cfg, if will start, but if you remove it from there, it will continue to load (unless you also remove it from mnesia). Settings of modules and acls may show similar problems.

Hello,

If I later make modification to ejabberd.cfg and comment out the following parameters:

override_local
override_global
override_acls

Will all future settings in ejabberd.cfg be ignored?

Best Regards

The settings are saved into the mnesia database. If your settings are lost upon restart, it means that there are lines in your ejabberd.cfg uncommented:

override_local
override_global
override_acls

They tell ejabberd to ignore everything in mnesia and reload settings from ejabberd.cfg.
