Can't enable HTTP Bind

Openfire Openfire Support
1

I’ve looked at all the other posts that mention this error and nothing seems to relate directly or fix the issue. Trying to select “Enabled” on HTTP Bind Settings, I get this error:

“An error has occured configuring the HTTP binding ports, check the error log for more details.”

All other settings on the page seem able to enable/disable/change.

I tried going to Server Manager -> System Properties and manually adding various settings. Not sure if I got the names exactly right but I tried to set these:

httpbind.enabled: true

xmpp.httpbind.enabled: true

Under Log Viewer, the only HttpBind entries I see are (shows up in Error as well as Warn tabs)

at org.jivesoftware.openfire.http.HttpBindManager.changeHttpBindPorts(HttpBindMana ger.java:484)

at org.jivesoftware.openfire.http.HttpBindManager.setHttpBindPorts(HttpBindManager .java:448)

at org.jivesoftware.openfire.admin.http_002dbind_jsp.handleUpdate(http_002dbind_js p.java:41)

at org.jivesoftware.openfire.admin.http_002dbind_jsp._jspService(http_002dbind_jsp .java:136)

So not terribly useful information that i can tell.

I don’t see anything else on the default ports (7070 and 7443) that might be conflicting.

I want to enable BOSH so I can maybe integrate a JS based XMPP client so I can get a Chromebox (ChromeOS) to connect to our XMPP/Openfire/Jabber server. Unless anyone has any good recommendations for ChromeOS-friendly XMPP clients (haven’t found any so far).

Thanks!

Remove ‘xmpp.httpbind.enabled: true’ from system properties. Only httpbind.enabled: true is suffice to bind through http-bind. Xmpp port(5222) and bosh port(7070) are different, don’t get confuse with them.

Error points to this code in HttpBindManager.java:

public void setHttpBindPorts(int unsecurePort, int securePort) throws Exception {
        if (unsecurePort != HTTP_BIND_PORT_DEFAULT) {
            JiveGlobals.setProperty(HTTP_BIND_PORT, String.valueOf(unsecurePort));
        }
        else {
            JiveGlobals.deleteProperty(HTTP_BIND_PORT);
        }
