Message archive & start OF automatic

Hi all,

I have installed OpenFire 3.7.1 successfully so how to set the message archive (number of message or quota store in HDD)

And how to set OpenFire luanch while Computer start (no need login to server to start manually)

Thank you

  1. You can try using Monitoring Service plugin, but you can’t set a number of messages or quota and all messages are stored in the database. Or you can use built-in audit option (Server > Server Settings > Message Audit Policy) which has options to set maximum size for logs, etc. But audit logs are of xml type and not easily readable, you will need some kind of parser to view them.

  2. Install a service as described in the documentation http://www.igniterealtime.org/builds/openfire/docs/latest/documentation/install- guide.html

Hi wroot,

I tried to run services fllowing

Windows Service

If you’re running Openfire on Windows, you will likely want torun Openfire as a standard Windows service after initial setup.If you used the Windows installer, a openfire-service.exe filewill be in the bin directory of the installation. You can usethis executable to install and control the Openfire service.

From a console window, you can run the following commands:

  • *openfire-service /install – installs the service. *
  • *openfire-service /uninstall – uninstalls the service. *
  • *openfire-service /start – starts the service *
  • openfire-service /stop – stops the service.

But now OpenFire cannot run, pls see the warning on attachment

The services.msc also startup automatic but OpenFire cannot run.

If you start it as a service you don’t have to run it with launcher additionally. Just open you browser and try connecting to Admin Console url.

Hi wroot,

OpenFire was down when i try openfire-service.exe, pls help to fix it.

Thank you

Make sure no Openfire proceses are running, then try to run a service via services.msc (Start). Or restart your server to make sure it only launches via services.
