I'm running ejabberd 16.01 on ubuntu and am trying to install mod_push. I have placed mod_push in the module directory, but after running the ejabberdctl commands to update specs and show modules_available, nothing is returned. Am I missing a step?
Looking for ejabberd docs?

Cannot Install Custom Module
Submitted by jsavvy on Fri, 2016-08-26 01:38
I tried with a custom module
I tried with a custom module called mod_zzz:
1. Run: ejabberdctl modules_update_specs
2. Go to $HOME/.ejabberd-modules/sources/ejabberd-contrib/
3. Create a new subdir called mod_zzz (or whatever)
4. Copy from mod_rest everything to mod_zzz, renaming file names, and editing the config file and the spec file
5. Now put your mod_zzz.erl
6. Run: ejabberdctl modules_available
