Hi all,
I'm tearing my hair out here trying to change the admin password. I've tried ejabberdctl, and the erlang shell, neither have worked (though gave me no error messages). I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling ejabberd giving a new password, but for some reason the first password I used STILL WORKS! What on earth is going on?
Cheers
I've been struggling with
I've been struggling with this all day, typical that I solve it 15 minutes after posting it on the forum.
So, here's the steps I followed:
ejabberdctl stop
ejabberdctl live
Then in the erlang console, I was trying:
ejabberd_auth:set_password(<<"admin">>, <<"localhost">>, <<"password">>).
This did not result in an error, which IMO is a problem. When I'd set the server up, I was using my machine name for the server, so when I replaced "localhost" with my machine name, it actually worked.
God knows why reinstalling ejabberd didn't work either, that's just stupid.
