Problems creating admin account

Openfire Openfire Support
1

Hi all.

I’m trying to setup openfire on SLES 11.1 (SuSE Linux). It’s running IBM JVM 1.6 as SUN is no longer supported.

Everything LOOKS good, and I can start the service. I can even point sparkweb at the server and create accounts.

My problem is I go through the setup wizard and I assign a valid e-mail address for mail (root@localhost - that’s me!) and then give an admin password.

At the next screen to hop into the control panel, I type in “admin” as my username and the password, and I got nothing. It keeps rejecting my credentials with an invalid username warning in red text.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance,

Josh

This is fixed. There’s XML missing from the openfire.xml file which I found in another users file. Specifically the list of allowed usernames isn’t populated, so “admin” and “jknarr” don’t work. Both these users work once they are added to the file.
