Error 405 while trying to login using user name and password

I am not able to login with user name and password while trying to create MUC and getting below error:

<iq type='error' id='MN3K7-3'>

below is my yml file:

###
###'           ejabberd configuration file
###
###

### The parameters used in this configuration file are explained in more detail
### in the ejabberd Installation and Operation Guide.
### Please consult the Guide in case of doubts, it is included with
### your copy of ejabberd, and is also available online at
### http://www.process-one.net/en/ejabberd/docs/

### The configuration file is written in YAML.
### Refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML for the brief description.
### However, ejabberd treats different literals as different types:
###
### - unquoted or single-quoted strings. They are called "atoms".
###   Example: dog, 'Jupiter', '3.14159', YELLOW
###
### - numeric literals. Example: 3, -45.0, .0
###
### - quoted or folded strings.
###   Examples of quoted string: "Lizzard", "orange".
###   Example of folded string:
###   > Art thou not Romeo,
###     and a Montague?

###'  LOGGING

##
## loglevel: Verbosity of log files generated by ejabberd.
## 0: No ejabberd log at all (not recommended)
## 1: Critical
## 2: Error
## 3: Warning
## 4: Info
## 5: Debug
##
loglevel: 4

##
## rotation: Describe how to rotate logs. Either size and/or date can trigger
## log rotation. Setting count to N keeps N rotated logs. Setting count to 0
## does not disable rotation, it instead rotates the file and keeps no previous
## versions around. Setting size to X rotate log when it reaches X bytes.
## To disable rotation set the size to 0 and the date to ""
## Date syntax is taken from the syntax newsyslog uses in newsyslog.conf.
## Some examples:
##  $D0     rotate every night at midnight
##  $D23    rotate every day at 23:00 hr
##  $W0D23  rotate every week on Sunday at 23:00 hr
##  $W5D16  rotate every week on Friday at 16:00 hr
##  $M1D0   rotate on the first day of every month at midnight
##  $M5D6   rotate on every 5th day of the month at 6:00 hr
##
log_rotate_size: 10485760
log_rotate_date: ""
log_rotate_count: 1

##
## overload protection: If you want to limit the number of messages per second
## allowed from error_logger, which is a good idea if you want to avoid a flood
## of messages when system is overloaded, you can set a limit.
## 100 is ejabberd's default.
log_rate_limit: 100

##
## watchdog_admins: Only useful for developers: if an ejabberd process
## consumes a lot of memory, send live notifications to these XMPP
## accounts.
##
## watchdog_admins:
##   - "admin@abc.com.au"

###.  ===============
###'  NODE PARAMETERS

##
## net_ticktime: Specifies net_kernel tick time in seconds. This options must have
## identical value on all nodes, and in most cases shouldn't be changed at all from
## default value.
##
## net_ticktime: 60

###.  ================
###'  SERVED HOSTNAMES

##
## hosts: Domains served by ejabberd.
## You can define one or several, for example:
## hosts:
##   - "example.net"
##   - "example.com"
##   - "example.org"
##
hosts:
  - "conference.abc.com.au"

##
## route_subdomains: Delegate subdomains to other XMPP servers.
## For example, if this ejabberd serves example.org and you want
## to allow communication with an XMPP server called im.example.org.
##
## route_subdomains: s2s

###'  Certificates

## List all available PEM files containing certificates for your domains,
## chains of certificates or certificate keys. Full chains will be built

###'  ACME
##
## In order to use the acme certificate acquiring through "Let's Encrypt"
## an http listener has to be configured to listen to port 80 so that
## the authorization challenges posed by "Let's Encrypt" can be solved.
## 
## A simple way of doing this would be to add the following in the listening
## section and to configure port forwarding from 80 to 5280 either via NAT
## (for ipv4 only) or using frontends such as haproxy/nginx/sslh/etc.
##   - 
##    port: 5280
##    ip: "::"
##    module: ejabberd_http

acme:

   ## A contact mail that the ACME Certificate Authority can contact in case of
   ## an authorization issue, such as a server-initiated certificate revocation.
   ## It is not mandatory to provide an email address but it is highly suggested.
   contact: "mailto:admin@abc.com.au"


   ## The ACME Certificate Authority URL.
   ## This could either be:
   ##   - https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org - (Default) for the production CA

Looking at your

Looking at your configuration, you can register accounts with JabberIDs like user1@conference.abc.com.au

Try to register an account like that, and try to login.

Does this work? If not, try to use a well-known desktop client, like Psi or Gajim to login, maybe the problem is in your client code, or in the BOSH setting, or a misconfiguration between ejabberd and your client.

If that works, then try to join a room called room1@muc.conference.abc.com.au
