I am, but the examples the jwchat site has are for v2 of apache. I finally used the <Virtual *> example, put it into the apache httpd.conf and I finally stopped getting a 404 err. The jabber daemon:: *yes*. A few hours ago I found the FAQ pages on the ejabberd site and realized I needed not only to add/modify several strings but uncomment them. "%" isn't normally used as a comment token. JWchat looks like it'll serve well ... if I ever get the bloody thing set up! thanks for your help, gary PS: the chap who was helping me via message board has to think i'm a moron ... won't be the 1st time:-)
Gary, I am using apache 2.x. I have only used apache 1.3 one time and am unsure of syntax/module differences, however I will post my relevant parts of httpd.conf and config.js Apache: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName chat.bogus.tld DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/jwchat <Directory /usr/local/www/jwchat> Options +Indexes +Multiviews </Directory> AddDefaultCharset UTF-8 RewriteEngine on RewriteRule http-poll/ http://bogus.tld:5280/http-poll/ [P] </VirtualHost> Please note that here I had trouble while the jabber server and jwchat were resolving to the same domain, ex bogus.tld. They have to be seperate, at least from what I have tried. /usr/local/www/jwchat/config.js var SITENAME = "bogus.tld" var DEFAULTRESOURCE = "jwchat"; <lot of snippage> var BACKENDS = [ { name:"Ejabberd", description:"Ejabberd's native HTTP Polling backend", httpbase:"http-poll/", type:"polling", servers_allowed:[SITENAME] }, ]; I hope this sheds some light, even though I am using apache 2.x. Also I had to have mod_rewrite and mod_proxy compiled in and enabled, not sure on how to do this with apache 1.3, maybe someone more familiar with 1.3 can chime in on those modules.
