New install, can't connect to server via Pidgin

Openfire Openfire Support
1

I have the server setup using the guide here http://www.tonybhimani.com/category/centos/ and have setup a few other Openfire on Windows fine. I can get to the admin console, have created two users, and from the internal network can’t connect to the server with Pidgin. I get “Not Authorized” below is the error log from the server that might help?

What about other clients? Also, are you sure you arent running two instances of Openfire? Or maybe there is something else using its ports. Wonder what are these “address is already in use” errors about.

I am running Apache and Zimbra on the same server so I don’t know if something is conflicting. I have not tried Spark or any other client as of yet.

So, have you tried with some other clients? Maybe some other error description would help to find out the cause. Also, i don’t know what ports do Apache and Zimbra usually use. But you can try turning them off for a moment.
