Hi,

I did a fresh installation with webchat.war and enterprise.jar in the plugin folder and got this exception:

This one was not critical.

On available-plugins.jsp I found out that Spark Fastpath Webchat 3.2.3 was available, the download above points to 3.2.2. Updating this plugin did produce errors

2007.03.23 23:29:22 Error unloading plugin webchat. Will attempt again momentarily.
2007.03.23 23:29:30 Error unloading plugin webchat. Will attempt again momentarily.

I had to restart Openfire to get rid of them. Is it possible that the plugins fails to initialize right if no enterprise license is found after startup?

Windows installer has suggested C:\Program files\Wildfire folder to me to install Maybe it just found old installation keys.

Hey wroot,

That is correct. Install4j has detected your previous setup and it will use it for the upgrade. Remember to read the upgrade guide to make sure that you follow the correct steps.

So then it will leave old Wildfire folder and install everything in there? Or is your setup wise enough to create new Openfire folder, copy all stuff from Wildfire and then delete it? Anyway, Wildfire uninstaller didnt launch (3.1.1 with a lot of zip version overwrites) so i deleted it manually. And i havent cleaned registry. Well, i have my own upgrade plan, after spending years with this server and going through JM -> Wildfire change i have some understanding of basics that is needed to be done. So everything went smoothly yesterday. It’'s just weird not to find Wildfire in the bottom of Programs list in Start menu anymore. Now i have to look a bit higher, somethere besides OpenOffice.org
