Problem setting up jwchat using http://ejabberd.jabber.ru/jwchat

I am trying to get jwchat working with ejabber on my Mandrake 10 box.

I have ejabber up and running -
Erlang (BEAM) emulator version 5.4.5
ejabberd 0.9
apache -
Apache-AdvancedExtranetServer/2.0.48 (Mandrake Linux/6mdk)
mod_perl/1.99_11 Perl/v5.8.3 mod_ssl/2.0.48 OpenSSL/0.9.7c PHP/4.3.4

I also have jwchat up and running. I am able to access it by going to chat.clamlinux.com and I can login. The prolem is, I am not logging into anything. The ejabber web admin shows nobody logged in, and I can use any username password combination I choose. Also, I cannot communicate with other users.

The best clue that I have to what is going on is an error in my apache log:

[Wed May 11 11:34:03 2005] [error] [client 192.168.23.100] 
  client denied by server configuration: proxy:http://clamlinux.attap.com:5280/http-poll/

Here is the relevant section of my httpd2.conf file:

<IfModule mod_proxy.c>
    ProxyRequests Off
    ProxyPass /var/www/jwchat/htdocs/http-poll/ http://chat.attap.com:5280/http-poll/
    <Directory proxy:*>
        Order Deny,Allow
        Deny from all
        Allow from all
   </Directory>
</IfModule>

Any help is appreciated!

So, the URL where ejabberd

So, the URL where ejabberd is listening for HTTP-Poll connections is http://clamlinux.attap.com:5280/http-poll/ , right? This means that your Jabber server is clamlinux.attap.com.

If that is right, try to login with a 'desktop' client using HTTP-Poll (Psi and Tkabber allows this possibility). If it succeded, check what appears on the ejabberd log, and then compare that with the logs when jwchat tries.

I installed psi, but can't

I installed psi, but can't get it to connect either. Any help is appreciated. This technology seems awesome, if only I can get it working properly!

The account is:
admin@clamlinux.attap.com
Resource: HTTP-Poll
Priority: 5

The rest I left as default values.

When I try to connect I get the error: There was an error communicating with the jabber server: Details: Authentication Error: Not Authorized.

This is what I get in the terminal where I ran ejabberd:
=INFO REPORT==== 11-May-2005::18:29:01 ===

% Users that have admin access. Add line like one of the following after you
% will be successfully registered on server to get admin access:
%{acl, admin, {user, "aleksey"}}.
{acl, admin, {user, "admin", "clamlinux"}}.
%{acl, admin, {user, "peter"}}.

% Blocked users:
%{acl, blocked, {user, "test"}}.

% Local users:
{acl, local, {user_regexp, ""}}.

% Another examples of ACLs:

%{acl, aleksey, {user, "aleksey", "jabber.ru"}}.
%{acl, test, {user_regexp, "^test"}}.
%{acl, test, {user_glob, "test*"}}.

% Only admins can use configuration interface:
{access, configure, [{allow, admin}]}.

% Every username can be registered via in-band registration:
{access, register, [{allow, all}]}.

% After successful registration user will get message with following subject
% and body:
{welcome_message,
{"Welcome!",
"Welcome to Jabber Service. "
"For information about Jabber visit http://jabber.org"}}.
% Replace them with 'none' if you don't want to send such message:
%{welcome_message, none}.

% List of people who will get notifications about registered users
{registration_watchers, ["peter@attap.com"]}.

% Only admins can send announcement messages:
{access, announce, [{allow, admin}]}.

% Only non-blocked users can use c2s connections:
{access, c2s, [{deny, blocked},

% Set shaper with name "normal" to limit traffic speed to 1000B/s

% For authentification via external script use the following:
%{auth_method, external}.
%{extauth_program, "/path/to/authentification/script"}.

% For authentification via ODBC use the following:
%{auth_method, odbc}.

I got psi to work - I was able to register a new user, and it is communicating with ejabber properly.

owever, jwchat is still not working. I am still getting the same error in my apache error log:

Any help appreciated!
