3.6 and custom providers

Openfire Openfire Support
1

In Openfire 3.5, you could set custom providers in openfire.xml, for example:

java.example.com.myAuthProvider

In 3.6 the settings are now set in the database and openfire does not read the providers from openfire.xml.

How do I use a custom auth provider with 3.6? There doesn’t seem to be any documentation on how to do this.

Thanks!

This would be very interesting.

One not so nice solution ist to simple change the value in the database:

In table “OFPROPERTY” set “provider.auth.className” to “yourpackage.YourAuthProvider”.

This works for me.
