i want to set up an openfire server on a Gentoo linux x64 2006.1 (OVH hosting).
I emerge JDK (1.6.0 | OK)
I emerge openfire (OK)
I start /etc/ini.d/openfire (seems to be OK)
I’ve no graphical interface on my server (only SSH/telnet) so i must access to web admin by internet. But I got no answer from 9090 (http) or 9091 (https)…
I’ve generated config.xml (/opt/openfire/config).
When i do nmap, 9090 is “open” (9090/tcp open zeus-admin) on both local IP and wan IP.
What i’ve done wrong??
PS: I’ve used search on forums but no answer concerning gentoo.
It works. I don’t know what i’ve done but it works! (iptables is disabled)
Now i’m configuring openfire with MySQL. I’ve created the DB but he said “connection refused” during step 3 (please read error.log, which is almost only java error messages).
But other problem, other question, i close this one.
When you installed MySQL, did you carry out any further admin ? Have you permitted the default user mysql access to the DB or created another user ?
You may need to go into /usr/bin (on RedHat variants) dir and execute mysql then grant permissions to the correct table for the user you created. Bear in mind permissions are also host centric unless you grant it from either a specific host or any host (not secure)
It’s something like (though I suggest you verify this !)
/usr/bin
mysql
mysql>grant all on to identified by ‘’@% for any host or an IP or resolvable hostname. followed by ;
No worries - if you can’t access the internal DB then that sounds like a permissions problem. You may want to make sure that the Openfire daemon has permissions into the dir structrure including files.
