My server’s domain is domain.com (censored in the screenshot)
The host address that it runs on is xmpp.domain.com
Why am I seeing this then:
What is missing and what is necessary for this error to be resolved?
The domain xmpp.example.com IIRC is automatically generated during the setup process. The individual who initially installed your Openfire server should have customized this value to align with the intended domain for use. This discrepancy may be the cause of any issues you are experiencing with HTTP file transfers. While there could be other factors contributing to this problem, one potential solution is to include xmpp.example.com in your SSL certificate, or you can probably just change it to ‘example.com:7443/httpfileupload’ This adjustment may help resolve the issue and ensure smooth operation of your server.
I am the individual who installed it.
The name xmpp.domain.com is included in the SSL cert.
Where is the discrepancy? On which page and in which field?
Do you have DNS records for xmpp.domain.com?(can you ping it?).
Are you really asking me whether a domain name is a domain name?
In order to get a Lets Encrypt cert for a subdomain, it has to resolve on DNS. I got the cert. Just saying.
By the way, it does not have to ping. ICMP has nothing to do with DNS resolution which goes over port 53 in its simplest implementation. Before creating each and every topic here, I exhaust every possibility that something is wrong in my infrastructure that I have a way of discovering on my own, and only when I need the knowledge of OF’s developers do I approach you. But you always turn around and ask me “did you turn it off and on” tech support questions. Yes, I did my homework and turned it off and on, but it is still not working.
Is OF making its own DNS requests? Is it not content with the OS’s DNS resolution layer? Because if it does then I will have to open the firewall for it. Yes, there are environments that are secure, and some applications break because their teams did not consider that being a possibility.
Dear Sir,
Openfire is designed to be easily deployed, and most individuals have no trouble setting it up. Unfortunately, you have experienced a lengthy and challenging process. Despite the efforts of many individuals who have tried to assist you without any compensation, your demeanor has been consistently rude and unpleasant. This behavior does not inspire others to continue offering their assistance. Perhaps you should consider hiring professional help, which can be found here: Ignite Realtime: Support - Professional Partners
Setting up a new Openfire server with all the necessary features should not be a time-consuming or expensive endeavor. I sincerely wish you the best of luck with your future endeavors.
All along, for about 15 years, I received very little in the way of advise.
Your team demonstrated lack of understanding of secure environments and firewalling. For months, I’ve been trying to get answer to a simple question: which EXE should be allowed through the firewall but got not a word. In the end, having heard nothing from your team, I discovered that by way of buying a piece of monitoring software and seeing on the report that it was a different EXE from OF’s service. Just saying. It costs me.
Your team assumes that OF runs in a widely open environment and is not interested in even considering anything more secure. Perhaps this explains why OF is creating so many problems in my secure infrastructure where there are no undocumented open ports to undocumented hosts.
If this is what you want to do - power to you. But you never say clearly that OF’s requirements are such and such, and your responses are always along the lines that OF code base is infallible, and I am doing something wrong.
Out of dozens of various server softwares that I manage in my infrastructure, OF is special: nothing but problems, nothing but false positives, very little in the way of providing stable communication.
Since I upgraded to 4.9.2, my users on Conversation lost communication. They receive nothing from the rest of users. Nobody else is affected.
But you focus on my person and blame me for aggravating you. Just saying.
I’ve been trying to help you make OF a better product, but it never changes. It is still the same as 15 years ago plus new bugs. Some of your releases do not work at all, and I only find this out after a lengthy, torturous investigation, but you are not interested in this. You are very busy working on the next release that brings me nothing of value at all. The only item I can really appreciate over the entire period of 15+ years is certificate manager plugin. I and my users got nothing new over this period: we still send text messages and that is it. Just saying.
And grow a pair! There was nothing unpleasant, nothing personal in anything that I’ve written. It’s been technical and to the point. But you always word your responses to me in the most insulting way that assumes that I am a complete idiot who does not know J.S. If all you want is to not hear about new issues from me, be it so. At some point comes the time to make a stop-loss call.
