I'd be curious also how the system was setup. This may not be a related problem, but if the IP or hostname were changed on the machine between restarts, it's possible ejabberd is not starting back up properly or trying to listen for things that no longer exist.
This has happened in other email threads like this one for example: http://markmail.org/message/vgndc6spaggax6di There are lots of ways of either purging ejabberd and setting it back up again from scratch. Like my horrible suggestions in IRC one day: http://irc.evergreen-ils.org/evergreen/2013-06-11#i_2725 I think others may have more peaceful ways of resetting ejabberd and changing it to use the new hostname/IP though? -- Ben On Thu, Apr 10, 2014 at 6:28 PM, Dan Wells <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Glenn, > > > > Have you checked that ejabberd is actually running?
