XMLRPC Error

Submitted by ashansky on Tue, 2011-01-18 20:56

I've downloaded the ejabberd xmlrpc module from http://www.ejabberd.im/ejabberd_xmlrpc. I've compiled it and added it to the ejabberd beams folder. I also added {4560, ejabberd_xmlrpc, [{maxsessions, 10}, {timeout, 5000}]}, to my config file. But after a restart of ejabberd, I get the following error in my ejabberd.log file.

=ERROR REPORT==== 2011-01-18 13:50:37 ===

The compiled file is in the beams folder, so why is the module not available? Does this have to do with the patch information listed on the module home page?

I found the compiled files

I found the compiled files for the xmerl patch and placed them in ejabberd-x.x.x\lib\kernel-x.x.x\ebin and ejabberd started up normally. Now to see if it works :)

Seems like now I've run up

Seems like now I've run up against another error:

PHP Warning: file_get_contents(http://127.0.0.1:4560/RPC2): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed!

I've checked to make sure that ejabberd is listening on that port. Is there something else I need to setup? Where does the /RPC2 come from?

Try this script

Maybe from the erlang xmlrpc library.

You should get something like this:

I found this PHP script file:

<?
$param=array("host"=>"localhost");
$request = xmlrpc_encode_request('registered_users', $param, (array('encoding' => 'utf-8')));

$context = stream_context_create(array('http' => array(
    'method' => "POST",
    'header' => "User-Agent: XMLRPC::Client mod_xmlrpc\r\n" .
                "Content-Type: text/xml\r\n" .
                "Content-Length: ".strlen($request),
    'content' => $request
)));

$file = file_get_contents("http://127.0.0.1:4560/RPC2", false, $context);

$response = xmlrpc_decode($file);

if (xmlrpc_is_fault($response)) {
    trigger_error("xmlrpc: $response[faultString] ($response[faultCode])");
} else {
    print_r($response);
}
?>

I have two account registered. When i run that script, I get this:

$ php 4504-registered-works.php
Array
(
    [users] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [username] => badlop
                )

            [1] => Array
                (
                    [username] => badlop2
                )

        )

I've made sure that ejabberd

Submitted by ashansky on Thu, 2011-01-20 15:26.

I've made sure that ejabberd is listening on port 4560, but I receive this error whenever I try to run a command.

PHP Warning: file_get_contents(http://127.0.0.1:4560/RPC2): failed to open stream: HTTP request

Code

protected /*string*/ function sendRequest(/*string*/$command,/*array*/$params){
//check that params is array if not create
if(!is_array($params)){
$params = array();
}
//$params["user"] = "admin";
//$params["host"] = "localhost";

$request = xmlrpc_encode_request($command, $params, (array('encoding' => 'utf-8')));

$context = stream_context_create(array('http' => array(
'method' => "POST",
'header' => "User-Agent: XMLRPC::Client mod_xmlrpc\r\n" .
"Content-Type: text/xml\r\n" .
"Content-Length: ".strlen($request),
'content' => $request
)));

$file = file_get_contents("http://127.0.0.1:4560/RPC2", false, $context);

$response = xmlrpc_decode($file);

if (xmlrpc_is_fault($response)) {
trigger_error("xmlrpc: $response[faultString] ($response[faultCode])");
} else {
return $response;
}
}
