Hello,

I'm trying to get mod_xmlrpc installed on my server. I'm using Windows
2003 and ejabberd-2.1.2.

I checked out the source for ejabberd-modules and compiled mod_xmlrpc
using build.bat. Then copied mod_xmlrpc.beam to "C:\Program Files
(x86)\ejabberd-2.1.2\lib\ejabberd-2.1.2\ebin" and added "{mod_xmlrpc,
[]}," to the ejabberd.cfg file.

After restarting the service I checked the port and nothing responds.

Checking the log shows this:

=ERROR REPORT==== 2010-03-16 16:17:10 ===
E(<0.36.0>:gen_mod:73) : {undef,
[{xmlrpc,start_link,
[all,4560,10,5000,
{mod_xmlrpc,handler},
started]},
{mod_xmlrpc,start,2},
{gen_mod,start_module,3},
{lists,foreach,2},
{ejabberd_app,start,2},
{application_master,start_it_old,4}]}


Any ideas?


Thanks in advance,

Mitchel,

Look at the README.txt for mod_xmlrpc and you'll see the section REQUIREMENTS which explains about getting the xmlrpc library and changing the command line for erl to use it...


HOWEVER, if I remember correctly mod_xmlrpc has actually been deprecated by ejabberd_xmlrpc (part of ejabberd main distribution instead of an external module) ?? so you might want to look at that.


Cheers

For 2.1.x you should use ejabberd_xmlrpc module in module

Hey Guys,

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I guess I was
confused over which module superseded which (ejabberd_xmlrpc vs
mod_xmlrpc).

Here are a few notes for other users:

Build:
To build ejabberd_modxml unless erl is in your path you need to modify
build.bat to point to your erl.exe:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\erl5.7.5\bin\erl" -pa
../../ejabberd-dev/trunk/ebin -pa ebin -make

Copy the ejabberd_modxml.beam file to "C:/Program Files
(x86)/ejabberd-2.1.2/lib/ejabberd-2.1.2/ebin/."

>From the instructions:

Step 1: Finding the link on the download page for the compiled
binaries is confusing, look next to "Requirements" at the top where it
says "you can get it compiled for.." for the link.

I copied the contents to "C:/Program Files
(x86)/ejabberd-2.1.2/lib/xmlrpc-1.13-compiled".

Step 2: On Windows when you add the "-pa" look in bin/ejabberdctl in
"start()", I added it like so:

exec $ERL $NAME $ERLANG_NODE $ERLANG_OPTS \
-noinput -detached \
-mnesia dir "\"$EJABBERD_DB\"" \
-s ejabberd \
-pa "C:/Program Files
(x86)/ejabberd-2.1.2/lib/xmlrpc-1.13-compiled/r13b01-5.7.2" \
-ejabberd config \"$EJABBERD_CONFIG_PATH\" \
log_path \"$EJABBERD_LOG_PATH\" \
-sasl sasl_error_logger \{file,\"$SASL_LOG_PATH\"\}


Cheers,
Mitchel Constantin

Started testing xmlrpc with my code. Currently I'm seeing the
following in erlang.log:

=CRASH REPORT==== 17-Mar-2010::14:34:40 ===
crasher:
pid: <0.532.0>
registered_name: []
exception error: undefined function xmerl_scan:string/1

in call from tcp_serv:start_session/3
initial call: tcp_serv:start_session(<0.378.0>,
{xmlrpc_http,handler,
[5000,
{ejabberd_xmlrpc,handler},
{state,[],noauth,false}]},
#Port<0.426>)

dictionary: []
trap_exit: false
status: running
heap_size: 610
stack_size: 23
reductions: 611
neighbours:


The xmlrpc method I'm trying is "status". A copy of the POST from
wireshark is as follows:

POST /RPC2 HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: text/xml
User-Agent: XML-RPC.NET
Host: 192.168.0.10:4560
Content-Length: 99
Connection: Close

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<methodCall>
<methodName>status</methodName>
<params />
</methodCall>

Is there anything obvious I'm missing? This seems like a version
mismatch or code error.

Thanks again,
Mitchel Constantin

ejabberd_xmlrpc requires xmlrpc, which you installed.
xmlrpc requires xmerl, which is included in the standard Erlang/OTP.

However, the ejabberd binary installers doesn't include all Erlang/OTP
(which is 80 MB), only the barely minimum to get the mainline ejabberd
running.
You probably don't have xmerl installed.

So, you have to add another step to your installation guide:
Install Erlang/OTP and copy the xmerl*.beam files.

Badlop,

This is what I see now:


POST /RPC2 HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: text/xml
User-Agent: XML-RPC.NET
Host: 192.168.0.10:4560
Content-Length: 99

Simple: ejabberd_xmlrpc expects that you always provide one parameter
with a struct.

For example, status call:
<methodCall>
<methodName>status</methodName>
<params>
<param>
<value>
<struct></struct>
</value>
</param>
</params>
</methodCall>

Try this example python script, which makes two calls:

---------------------------
import xmlrpclib

server_url = 'http://127.0.0.1:4560';
server = xmlrpclib.Server(server_url);

# This would fail:
# result = server.status()

params = {}
result = server.status(params)
print result

params = {}
params["host"] = "localhost"
result = server.registered_users(params)
print result
---------------------------

For me it returns:

$ python test.py
{'res': 0, 'text': 'The node ejabberd@localhost is started. Status:
startedejabberd 2.1.3 is running in that node'}
{'users': [{'username': 'test1'}, {'username': 'test2'}, {'username': 'test3'}]}

Thank you, that did the trick. In order to access "send-message-chat" I installed mod_admin_extra as well.

I've attached an example of using the API with C#.
