I had the same issue here on a fresh install on Debian 8. The uid was 1003. After you presumably ran:

sudo chown -R ejabberd:ejabberd /opt/ejabberd-15.07

What did you do to complete the install?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Ok, I figured it out. I've

Ok, I figured it out. I've been using the old 2.1 build supplied through apt-get on Ubuntu. Looks like the configuration files and folders are all now in /opt/ejabberd and it moved from erlang config file to YAML. Once I figured that out I was able to get it running.

The post installation script still does not work however. The folders end up with user:group permissions being set to a uid # (I think it was 1003 on mine) instead of ejabberd user/group. The chown command seems to not work in the script for whatever reason. I just ran the commands on my own from the command line as root instead.
