Title: IM Server (Jive Messenger) on SME 6.0.x
Post by: kangkc on September 01, 2005, 05:53:39 AM

Just want to share with everyone that the installation for the Jive Messenger (http://www.jivesoftware.org) is a breeze on SME Server 6.0.x.
Jive Messenger is Java instant messaging (IM) and group chat server that implements the XMPP (Jabber) protocol.

Just download the RPM, following the installation instruction on the Jive website. Only problem I'm facing now is my MySQL option. Couldn't get the JDBC with MySQL working. Least of my concern as Jive bundle with HSQLDB and it works just fine.

Next thing on the list is to get it working with the Astreisk-IM plugin and we will have a SME Communication Server  :-D

Title: Jive's Great but Java?

I have played with the win version of Jive Messenger and it's great, so I was interested in trying an installation out on the SME server.  The install went ok but I couldn't start the service because of java problems.  Did you install java first?  If so, how?

Download the rpm from jive web site, the rpm bundle the required Java JRE. You shouldn't need to install anything else. At least it works for me.

Title: JAVA_HOME

When running messenger.sh I get the error "JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly.  We cannot execute JAVA"

Any ideas?

Don't seems to have any problem on my end.

Did you issue the start up for the messenger as:
./messenger start

as described in Jive web site?
