I've installed version 1.1.2-6 on Debain and also the Windows 1.1.3_1 version.
On the windows version when I start it I get a web page stating:
By default, the web administration interface is enabled. You should be able to connect to the admin interface and log in with the user admin@DC01 and the password you defined during the installation.
I reinstalled several times to make sure I didn't fat finger the password, but my Debian box does the same thing. It's frustrating that the web interface is broke. Does anyone know when it will be fixed?
#tail -f /var/log/ejabberd/ejabberd.log

It's not even reporting an error, just going back to asking me to log in.
Put the full account address
The webadmin continues asking because the user+pass you specified is not an admin-privileged account. It could be that
Since you are almost sure the password is correct, and the same problem appears on the Windows and Debian packages, maybe the problem is that you don't specify correctly the account: you must put the full account address.
For example, if the servername is 'DC01' and your username is 'admin' (or 'tom', or whatever), then the information you must put on the web admin is 'admin@DC01' (or 'tom@DC01').
I hope that helps your problem, and you can start using both the Windows and Debian installs.
