Hi there,
I'd advise against using MU-Conference v0.3 - there are a number of issues and whole that were fixed in the v0.5.x series, and v0.6.0 is due out hopefully very soon (just waiting for some feedback)
Hey David!
I'm afraid I don't have much of a choice.
Under Cygwin, MU-Conference v0.52 == BOOM!
I can get it to compile under Cygwin, and I can fire up Jabberd with MU-C hooked in, but the moment I try to create a room, BOOM! Jabberd segfaults and I lose my entire Jabber server. MU-C v0.3, on the other hand, has been a rock-solid champ so far.
I realize it's not up-to-date and has issues of one sort or another, but as the Cygwin version of Jabberd 1.4.x was never officially supported, and all I've done is found a way to be able to build it a little bit better than what it was before, not to mention build/hook in things like JUD and MU-Conference, I figure something is better than nothing.
For example, even with what I've done, under Cygwin you cannot run Jabberd in debug mode (i.e., jabberd -d), as it segfaults before getting anywhere. I believe I've tracked this down to GNU Pth, which in turn is doing a fork(), which is just wreaking havoc under Cygwin. I can't explain why it's happening, as all I've been doing is massaging Makefiles to mimick what was done in earlier work and getting pieces to compile/work together. But these kinds of side effects I haven't had time to figure out, as it requires doing a good bit of debugging work or digging through the code and figuring out what all's going on (and I just don't have that kind of time at the moment). Other than this, however, Jabberd runs just fine. I've had a server up for weeks at a time, only restarting when the Windows box it was on had to be restarted (usually due to security updates :-) ).
By the way, I just emailed peregrine, the listed owner of the MU-C component on JabberStudio, earlier today with the modified Makefile attached. But I notice your name whenever discussion of MU-C is going on here on the list. Are you peregrine? Or have I sent email to an outdated address?
