Installing ejabberd 13.12 with MySQL problems

Hello,

I am trying to install Ejabberd 13.12 with MySQL in my Linux 64 bit server but I can't achieve it.
Here is what I've done:

1 - Download and install the linux 64-bits installer from http://www.process-one.net/en/ejabberd/downloads/

2 - Install in my DB the dump from https://github.com/processone/ejabberd/blob/master/sql/mysql.sql

3 - Editing the file ejabberd.cfg to use MySQL insted of default DB:
3.1 - Comment line {auth_method, internal}
3.2 - Uncomment line {auth_method, odbc}
3.3 - Define MySQL DB uncommenting and editing the line: {odbc_server, {mysql, "db_server_location", "schema", "user", "password"}}
3.4 - Rename the modules I want to use with my MySQL DB adding _odbc at the end of the name: mod_last, mod_offline, mod_privacy, mod_private, mod_pubsub, mod_roster, mod_vcard to mod_last_odbc, mod_offline_odbc, mod_privacy_odbc, mod_private_odbc, mod_pubsub_odbc, mod_roster_odbc, mod_vcard_odbc as explaned in the article:
http://iohq.net/index.php?title=Building_an_Ejabberd_Server_with_MySql

4 - Start Ejabberd

When I start ejabberd no log is throwing in ejabberd.log.
What am I doing wrong? Which steps have I skipped?

Thanks in advance,

Joan

First of all, step 3.4 has

First of all, step 3.4 has changed in recent versions of ejabberd. Check in the ejabberd Guide how to configure modules to use odbc storage instead of mnesia.

Second trick: First install ejabberd, and try it with default configuration. If that works, then change some options, start again and check it works. And repeat until you are satisfied. That way, if there is some problem, you will know what produced it.

Thanks for the response. You

Thanks for the response. You are right, I was doing it like the older version.

I finally achieve to use MySQL with ejabberd, I had to install the mysql*.beam
