Hello,
Having a bit of an issue with monitoring plugin… It was working fine until I decided to create a cluster and I did not name the node the same as the main openfire server. Point being that once I turned on the node and enabled clustering, it changed the xmpp server name on the main openfire server. This caused many issues. I believe I was able to resolve all of them except for the Monitoring Plugin. It does not show up on the Admin Console anymore. I’ve tried uninstalling the plugin, and reinstalling. I’ve tried naming the Monitoring folder on C:\Program Files\Openfire\plugins to “monitoring.old” so when I reinstalled, it created a new folder. Still no luck. Any pointing in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thank you much!

I attempted what you mentioned above, but looks like it still not working. This is what the Logs are showing.

There are subfolders of the Openfire directory called msgsearch and mucsearch (they are probably nested in another folder, I’m unsure). Each should have a file called indexprops.xml. At least one of those files is corrupted.
After you created a backup, delete the msgsearch and mucsearch folder, and restart the plugin (or Openfire). That will regenerate those indexes.
I found those two folders. They were inside C:\Program Files\Openfire\Monitoring. I Back them up. Deleted them. I restarted the plugin, and It did not create the 3 folders inside the monitoring folder (msgsearch, mucsearch, search) and I’m still experiencing the same issue.
While dealing with this, I also found out that I am able to access the Archive by url only, once I am logged into the Openfire Server. (http://SERVER-IP:9090/plugins/monitoring/archive-search.jsp). It works, I am able to search conversations. It just does not give me any Archive Settings. Archive link for me to access it, still does not appear on my OpenFire Server. Nothing different in the logs from what I had already posted above.
