Hi there,

Im new to this business, and want to install the server on windows xp pro machine (no sp2).
I've installed the Erlang and Expat in the directory so as the documention says.
But when i want to install the server he gives me the message cannot install need Erlang... it's installed.
So what i'm doing wrong?

wkr.

Strange, can you verify this?

Strange, can you verify all this?

  • Why did you install Expat? That's only needed if you plan to compile ejabberd, right?
  • What is the exact error message reported by the ejabberd installer?
  • When appears that message (at the very beginning, after accepting the license...)?
  • You installed Erlang using the Windows installer, but what version, what file, from what exact URL did you download the installer?
  • Have you verified Erlang is correctly installed? It added a shortcut to start an Erlang interpreter. Try to execute it, does it report any error?

* Didn't know if i needed it.
* That he can't find Erlang and that i have to install it.
* After the license
* From the link in the install program, i've dowloaded to
versions the same problem (R9C-0 and R10B-5)
http://www.erlang.org/download.html
* I've tried it no errors..

But the wierdest thing happend now i've ignored the message with the option in the install problem (just install ejabber) and the server is working...Erlang is starting.. so everything is oke..

thx

Bert
