It means the information your using to submit the registering isn’t all you need.

Or the accountname is already in use.

Try this code:

public void registerAccountsAtServer(String username, String password) {
System.out.println(“Registering account " + username + " at server”);
Registration register = new Registration();
ArrayList fieldListFields = new ArrayList();
PacketCollector iqCollector;

iqCollector = connection.createPacketCollector(new PacketTypeFilter(IQ.class));

    ArrayList fieldListNames = new ArrayList();

register.setType(IQ.Type.SET);
register.setTo(“SERVERNAME”);

Hashtable map = new Hashtable();

// set up the various attributes to be sent to the server

map.put(“username”, username);
map.put(“password”, password);
map.put(“email”, username + "@bot.nl");
map.put(“name”, username);

// send the packet
register.setAttributes(map);
PacketFilter filter = new AndFilter(new PacketIDFilter(register.getPacketID()), new PacketTypeFilter(IQ.class));

PacketCollector collector = connection.createPacketCollector(filter);
this.connection.sendPacket(register);

//Packet response = iqCollector.nextResult();
IQ response = (IQ) collector.nextResult(1000);

    if (response instanceof Registration) {
        if (response.getType() == IQ.Type.ERROR) {
            if (response.getError().toString().contains("409")) {
                System.out.println("Cannot register, user information already exists (error confict 409)");
            } else {
                System.out.println("Registration error! unknown error " + response.getError().getMessage());
            }
        } else if (response.getType() == IQ.Type.RESULT) {
            System.out.println("Registration result RESULT");
        } else if (response.getType() == IQ.Type.SET) {
            System.out.println("Registration result SET");
        }
    }
}

Job,

I have the same problem with “conflict (409)”.

I tried your code. The response from server is the same - 409.

The problem that I have restricted new user registration to admin role.
So I need to authenticate as admin user and than create a new account

If there is no restriction on the serever I can register!

My Code:

XMPPConnection connection = new XMPPConnection(configuration);
try {
SASLAuthentication.supportSASLMechanism(“PLAIN”, 0);

connection.connect();

connection.login(ADMIN_LOGIN, ADMIN_PASS);

AccountManager accountManager = connection.getAccountManager();

accountManager.createAccount(username, password);

} finally {
connection.disconnect();
}

When I removed line

connection.login(ADMIN_LOGIN, ADMIN_PASS);

the response from server was the same!

Could anyone give some idea how Smack client can be granted with admin role?

I think your problem is a setting in the server.

In the Registration settings (in the webinterface of OpenFire) you can enable in-band registration and some other settings you need.

As I wrote above I can registered if access rule set to {allow, all}.

Server is ejabberd. Registration is enabled.

I can modify access rule for registration. And I have to restrict registration.

Only admins should be able to register new account.

Access rule on ejabberd - {access,register,[{allow,admin}]}].

I tried use Smack and call connection.login(ADMIN_LOGIN, ADMIN_PASS) .

As I assumed connection authorized by admin account should be able to create new ones.

Now question is: why Smack cannot register new account anyway?

Thanks,

Max
