OpenFire 4.1.3 nem todos os contatos aparecem

$

Instalei o OpenFire 4.1.3 num computador com Windows 7 Pro 64bits (que é usado como terminal na rede), utilizei a opção de banco de dados "Banco de Dados Interno - Utilize um banco de dados interno, mantido por HSQLDB. Esta opção não requer nenhuma configuração de um banco de dados externo e é um modo fácil de rodar o serviço rapidamente. Todavia, ele não oferece o mesmos nível de performance que um banco de dados externo" e Perfil "Padrão -  Armazenar os grupos e usuários no banco de dados do Openfire. Esta é a melhor opção para instalações simples", são 10 usuários com computador rodando Windows 7 e Windows 10, todos com o spark 2.8.3, o OpenFire está rodando o plugin de monitoramento.

 

Como são 10 usuário cada um tem 9 contatos, acontece de um ou outro usuário se logar e não aparecer todos o 9 contatos, as vezes aparecem 3, e no computador do lado aparecem todos os contatos.

 

Isso pode ser pq não utilizei um banco de dados a parte, por estra num computador que é utilizado como terminal rodando outros programas e antivírus, ou alguma configuração que tem que ser feita?

How Do I Install OpenFire To My Website?

$

0

I am running a website with multiple forums, and I want to give each forum their own chat. I found the chat script I want to use, but it requires XMPP and Openfire was recommended for it.

 

So looking at the Openfire installation instructions, it gives a Windows option, Linux option, and Mac option. Those three options are fine for a personal computer, but what about adding to a website? What do I upload to my webhost for my website?

 

Then I'm a little confused about data bases. I understand it needs one or has the embed one, but each forum on my website has its own data base as well, so how will Openfire work with each of those so they stay separate from each other, or do I need to add Openfire to each forum separately?

Problems with Trillian v6 and Openfires default self-signed certificates

$
0
0

Hi!

 

I run a couple of Openfire servers which are set to require encryption and uses the default self-signed certificates. I use Trillian as my client.

When Trillian got updated to version 6 it would no longer connect to the Openfire servers. Trillian 6 uses an updated SSL engine compared to version 5.

After diagnosing the problem with the Trillian devs they gave me this answer:

"When connecting, it looks like Openfire is adding an extension: "id-ce-subjectAltName' with a type of 'id-on-xmppAddr', but it has an error with it.  The particular error we see is:

BER Error: Wrong field in SEQUENCE expected class:CONTEXT(2) tag:0 but found class:UNIVERSAL(0) tag: 12"

 

I tried generating my own self signed certificates using easyrsa and openssl and those work fine with Trillian 6. I'll add the method I used to generate them below. Publicly signed certificates using LetEncrypt or others should also work.

 

Can someone look into this and see if it's possible to create the certificates so they validate properly? I'll gladly ask the Trillian devs if you want some more info from their end.

 

Here's how I created my own self signed certificates. Run on Fedora 24. Replace <servername> with suitable name (without brackets) if you want to run the commands yourself.

wget https://github.com/OpenVPN/easy-rsa/archive/master.zip

unzip master.zip

cd easy-rsa-master/easyrsa3/

cp vars.example vars

 

I uncommented the following in vars file. Probably not needed though...

set_var EASYRSA_KEY_SIZE        2048

set_var EASYRSA_CA_EXPIRE       3650

set_var EASYRSA_CERT_EXPIRE     3650

 

./easyrsa init-pki

./easyrsa build-ca

 

Make RSA cert

./easyrsa gen-req <servername>_rsa

./easyrsa sign-req server <servername>_rsa

 

Convert to x509

openssl x509 -in pki/issued/<servername>_rsa.crt -out <servername>_rsa.crt

 

Decrypt private key since Openfire doesn't seem to import it otherwise

openssl rsa -in pki/private/<servername>_rsa.key -out rsapriv.key

 

Make DSA cert

openssl dsaparam -out dsaparam.pem 2048

openssl gendsa -out privdsakey.pem dsaparam.pem

openssl req -new -key privdsakey.pem -out pki/reqs/<servername>_dsa.req

./easyrsa sign-req server <servername>_dsa

 

Convert to x509

openssl x509 -in pki/issued/<serverame>_dsa.crt -out <servername>_dsa.crt

 

In Openfire web GUI

- Import ca.crt to truststore

- Import DSA and RSA cert using the decrypted keys and x509 certs

Hallo,

we have two certificate with the same Properties except serial number, Thumbprint and some extensions.

the first one is from 4/24/2017 and the second one is from 9/9/2015, both are valid till 1/1/2100.

we have two devices, one with the first certificat, the second one with the new certifikat.

 

the second device can seccussfully connect but the first device not.

i'm getting this error:

Hi all,

 

I am using Openfire 3.1 along with an applicaton with Android aSmack library of version 4.0.3.

I know my Openfire and the aSmack library is outdated but it's been working very fine until now.

But suddenly, I check the Debug log and these Exceptions appear and kick off my users out of my chatting server:

Does anyone have a clue about this exception? Does it relate to the idle client connection time and sending XMPP pings to idle clients?

Currently my client setting is set to 3600 sec for idle clients until the connection closes, and set to sending XMPP pings to idle clients.

 

I need a desperate help on this. Thank you!

Server FQDN

Hello! I'm plan to deploy Openfire Server. My parent domain for example is contoso.com. So I'm install application with domain name contoso.com and server name is openfire.contoso.com.

 

Server Properties:

------------------

Server Uptime: 6 minutes -- started May 31, 2017 1:38:20 PM

Version: Openfire 4.1.4

Server Directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Openfire

XMPP Domain Name:  contoso.com

 

Environment:

------------------

Java Version: 1.8.0_131 Oracle Corporation -- Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM

Appserver: jetty/9.2.z-SNAPSHOT

Server Host Name (FQDN):  openfire.contoso.com

OS / Hardware: Windows Server 2012 R2 / x86

Locale / Timezone: en / Moscow Standard Time (3 GMT)

OS Process Owner: Administrator

Java Memory: 32,42 MB of 247,50 MB (13,1%) used

 

My question is: for what domain should I make a certificate. For openfire.contoso.com (because clients perform connection to this host name) or for contoso.com? Through the web interface of the server, it wants to do just that for contoso.com.

Moving to a new server, and fixing some small issues

$

I wanted to bounce some ideas about the process.

I have Openfire running in Ubuntu 12.04

I have a new VM setup and ready with 16.04. Openfire and MySQL are already installed and ready to go.

I am using the latest version of Openfire, and I also use FastPath (so I need to install Tomcat too).

I am going to do this during business hours so I wanted to make sure I cover all the bases first

  1. Prepare VM
    1. Install Ubuntu 16.04
    2. set hostname as intended for server
    3. Install Apache2
    4. Install MySQL-server
    5. Install Tomcat
    6. Install Openfire deb
  2. Copy MySQL Database
    1. Create Openfire MySQL user (it can be exported but the password needs to be set manually since it is saved as a hash)
    2. For openfire User update the password in the config file (which one??){openfire.xml I am guessing, but it is encrypted
  3. Copy Openfire configuration files from /etc/openfire
  4. (this is only  for FastPath) Copy Tomcat configuration files
    1. It has been a long time so I don't remember what I need to copy actually. I remember that I needed to put the java package, and I remember I did most of it using defaults, but I can't remember what I did. Tomcat is my weak point.
  5. At this point most should be ready, so now switch the IP address so that the connections can go to the new server
  6. Setup SSL for Openfire and Tomcat
    1. For Openfire create a new server request from inside the application
    2. For Tomcat I am not sure what to do. I need to create a new keystore right, not move it. And then create the request.
  7. Copy additional files
    1. /usr/share/openfire/index{groupname}
    2. Any other files?

I almost forgot. I would like to get the DNS SRV Record verification working with this server. So lets say we use for fqdn

chat.contoso.com and that the domain name is conto.com (yes, someone though to shorten our domain name for some weird reason).

Should I name the server chat? I can add a DNS record that says chat.contoso.com. Would it still give the warning?

Debian 8 jessie.

Any mobile client can connect only one times, accept server self-signed certificate, when i try to reconnect...and fail.

I tried many android clients on many phones, with different Android version.

If i disable STARTTLS policy - all work, but i need TLS.

I tried to change Java 7 to 8, nothing.

Desktop clients work perfectly!

Why is group chat such an awkward thing in XMPP?

$
0
0

First of all, I'd like to preface with a grand KUDOS to the team of openfire.  I did thorough research before selecting an XMPP server and openfire definitely came out on top by a long stretch.  GREAT WORK TEAM!

 

We recently migrated from skype to our own openfire server, but find the group/conference chat to be very difficult to effectively use.  It almost seems like it wants to be an IRC instead of an effective team communication tool. Is this something thats known and being worked on, or is it just the life of XMPP?

 

Some points to describe what I mean

  1. We use group chats in our company to keep communications between all our remote people fast and efficient.  We have upwards of 20-30 group chats, many of which containing the same people, but in different configurations.  Essentially there's a group chat for every aspect of our work.  Yes, we do have a project manager, and we use that as well, but it is inefficient as a quick form of communication.  Configuring all these group chats in Openfire/xmpp is a nightmare.  And getting all the people to actually stay connected in each one of the group chats is challenging to say the least.
  2. So once everyone figured out how to rejoin lost group chats (spark makes it easy, but we dont like spark for many other reasons, so we use other xmpp clients), and some figured out how to "autojoin" and keep it there, we still have the problem of the chat getting flooded with ridiculous "xxxx has joined the chat."  "xxxx has left the chat." messages!  This is completely unnecessary and redundant and I can't figure out how to stop openfire from sending these messages.  I presume its openfire doing it, since it seems to happen in all the xmpp clients we've used.  (please someone tell me how to stop these messages )
  3. We have people that use xmpp clients on mobile + desktop devices.  With a lot of digging I did finally end up figuring out how to get openfire to send the messages of a chat to all clients connected with priority 0 - works about halfway decent - but you lose context of the chats since your own chats do not come through to your other devices.
  4. On that note, dare you have more than one client connected to a group chat, thats when rapid "has joined / has left" messages happen as the clients fight for the right to be THE ONE in the chat.  Why in the world can't more than one client of the same user be in a group chat?
  5. Why is it so inconsistent how it displays people's nicknames in the group chat?  From the same exact chat, half the people see some awkward user@conference nickname while others see the proper nickname.  Another day, its another set of results.  Yes, the server is configured to allow the end users to set their nicknames.
  6. Why can't people just be IN the group chat indefinitely, and their status simply show online/offline?  Why do they always have to leave / rejoin these group chats?  again, seems like an IRC mentality.  An effective internal communication tool would simply allow people to be in the group chat, whether they are online or not.  Maybe some people like the IRC style for their needs, and if so, then I'd highly suggest a separation of the logic, build IRC Conference Rooms and then Group Chats.  Let them function differently.  As it stands, it seems to be a feature somewhere lost in the middle between these two functionalities.
  7. Offline messages held on server and delivered when recipient comes online.   OK - great, nice to see that this checkbox existed in openfire.  However, in practice it is quite uesless.  The reason being is that when the person does come online, it doesn't show the message as pending/unread, so they have to click through all of their chats to read back on anything that might've been said while they were offline. 
  8. Display xxx chats to new users joining the conference.  OK - again, same problem.  It would be actually useful if the person knew they had 20 unread chats in that group.  Not to mention all the joined/leave messages spamming the chat makes it that much more ineffective.
  9. Why does the spark client display chats like its the 1990s?  The modern world uses a little bit of spacing and graphics to display chats making it easier to see what chat is from who.  Spark also always shows people's usernames instead of their nicknames (natural names).  Making it even more useless since we have numbered users.

 

I'll stop now while I'm ahead.  And certainly hope I'm not offending anyone.  I appreciate that this project even exists, so please take my comments as constructivly as I intend them to be. I wouldn't have bothered registering and writing if I didn't appreciate so many other aspects to this project.  These are just the gripe points, the issues we have faced while trying to implement this as an effective (and secure) communication tool.

 

I will be glad to hear if we are simply misconfigured or misusing things, if there's anything we should be doing different to improve our experience, thats great news to me!

Hello.

I'm using Openfire 4.1.4.

I noticed a strange problem.

Adds a new user. Writes the name in which there are national characters (PL). After checking all the characters are normally visible.

After some time eg 10 minutes all national signs are change by ? char

How to make Openfire work with 64 bits Java

$

I find it simply absurd that in 2017 we're stuck with a "SERVER" that runs with 32 bits code. That's ridiculous........ But anyways, I hope someone has found a sure way to install Openfire with Java x64 that simply WORKS.

I've read many posts but NONE OF THEM WORKS, period.

Install Java x64 in Openfire\JRE folder does not work, the program insists it requires x86 Java to run.

If anyone has cracked this please share with us.

Hello, tell me please how to specify in BASE DN several groups
There are 3 groups allowed:
1) group1
2) group2
3) group3
All in the same domain
I am writing OU = Group1, OU = Group2, OU = Group3, DC = test, DC = en
It gives an error!
writing
OU = Group1, DC = test, DC = en
everything is working
I also want to know how to make 3 groups - what would you open and in the tree was distributed across the Group
eg :
Group1
     -user11
     -user12
     -user13
Group2
     -user21
     -user22
     -user23
