Hey, I am trying to install ejabberd on a local machine,runs windows-vista (that as the first step in developing a web chat application; then I would go dabble with jaxl library and jquery/strophe for the chat application).

I downloaded ejabberd windows installer from here. I run(double click) the installer, it opens a empty window, that is all. I looked into the services(in task manager, in control panel), i see nothing in the sorts of its name. Any idea what could be wrong or how to know if it is installed.

Thanks!

On windows 7, make sure you run the setup file as an administrator.

Go to start, run, and type cmd to open a command prompt.

CD to your ejabberd\bin folder. Mine in “D:\Program Files (x86)\ejabberd-2.1.9\bin”.

Then run the following command:

ejabberdctl status

You should see something like this “The node ejabberd@localhost is started with status: started ejabberd 2.1.9 is running in that node”
