Posted by Process-one on 2007-01-26 at 11:28 PM

A new ejabberd installer for Windows has been released, increasing out of the box ease of use.

This new installer fixes an Erlang/Windows bug, that did prevent ejabberd to work on some Windows XP/2003 platform. With this version, all Erlang networking problem have been solved.

ejabberd is now installed as a service. From the Windows Service administration screen you can start or stop ejabberd, but also ask for automatic startup at boot.

A shortcut has also been added to open a text ejabberd console (command-line) to perform diagnostic and advanced administrative tasks.

The installer is available from ejabberd download page, but you can download it directly from: ejabberd-1.1.2_2-windows-installer.exe.

We are approaching the end of our improvement process of ejabberd Windows installer and are aiming at having the easiest Instant Messaging installer around on Windows systems, so your feedback is welcome. If you think about a must have feature, please do not hesitate to ask !
