I am trying to install ejabberd on a Fedora Core 5 box. The following steps I took:
yum instal ejabberd
This installs ejabberd with the dependencies.
changed the ejabberd.cfg
host: localhost
admin: me
etc.
when I read the other posts I made it just a standard cfg file.
Even copied from other people cfg.
service ejabberd start
starting ejabberd [ok]
on command line as root:
ejabberdctl
>command not found
try to connect the webadmin:
>host not found
I cannot add users or connect with webadmin.
After trying that:
service ejabberd restart
ejabberd stop [failed] no node running
ejabberd start [ok]
If I try to connect by web or by client it looks like ejabberd crashes.
So I did:
yum remove ejabberd
Then installed by tarball and followed the install manual.
When I start it completely crashes and doesn't start up.
Am I missing here something? I tried to install on 3 different boxes with the same result, a lot off stress and no ejabberd.

Did you already tried to
Did you already tried to contact the author of the RedHat package? Maybe there is a bug in that package?
Can you give us more information? Like the output of ps aux | grep beam, hostname -s, hostname -f, the contents of your ejabberdctl script, the location of the script, and all other things that might be useful.
