Finally we have the ejabberd 2.0.0 version released after 1,5 years in development. Since we have some issues with packet shaping and the transports I will try to upgrade to this version as soon as possible. Hopefully this weekend.
Read more about the new version in the release announcement here: ejabberd 2.0.0.
Lately the Yahoo transport has not been working. The other day I decided to try and empty the user database to see if the database itself was the cause of the problems, and since the service has been running smoothly. This means that you will need to re-register the transport if you are a registrered user. Just delete it and reconecct and register.
Hope for better Yahoo times 🙂
The last few months lots have happened in my life, and at the same time not so much on the Jabber server. Luckily we now run our service on a much better hardware platform at Interhost. My personal situation has been about work lately, and I have now decided to quit my job with IT-Akademiet and will from January work for Skill. The process is now alomost complete, so I hope to get my head out of this haze. 🙂
On other news we have now about 4275 registered users, 150-160 concurrent users and about 3-400 very active users (online every other day or more often).
I was wondering about cleaning the user database. Maybe run a script that deletes users with no activity the last 12 months. Is this to strict a policy? Please provide feedback! 🙂 The first step is of course cleaning out the users which never have logged on.
We have had some issues with the contact form lately and we are not able to see your e-mail addresses and we are therefore unable to answer you. Please ask again in the comments section of this posting if you are missing an answer to a question.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
We have to bring down our servers to do some software upgrades. Downtime estimated at a couple of hours.
Sorry for the inconvinience.
We have had some issues with Yahoo the last days, now it works again. Thanks to the developer for helping me figuring out the problem.
I have lately myself been tricked into Facebook and I just sat here thinking maybe a Facebook group could be a great way to create some kind of community for our (over 3800!) registered users. At least I created the group so we will see if this will work in any way.

Hope you will join us and give credit / critics and come with good ideas.
At least right now it seems to be working fine again. The problem was with ejabberd, and I used much time trying to fix the transport. In the end I hade tried two different servers (to try a different ip if mine was banned) and in the end only restart ejabberd was left. After doing this everything worked again.
Hope it lasts! 🙂
And, I am very sorry that it took so long before I resolved this but my life and work is more demanding these days .. :/
The last days we have had some problems with the MSN transport. For some reason messages does not arrive when talking to contacts. I do not know what is causing these problems, but it might be a change in the MSN protocol by Microsoft.
I will do what I can to fix this problem, but you might want to use Gaim in the mean time.
We have been experiencing some instability today, the ejabberd service has just stopper without much error message a few times. I am currently investigating this and hope to find a solution soon.
Sorry for the problems this is causing.
