[JDEV] Conference component is silent

Wed Jul 3 07:27:09 CDT 2002

I am trying create a chat room on my local jabber server using Exodux(version 
0.6.2.0) but I don't get any response
from the conference component.

The message sent is 

<presence to="room at conference.localhost/nickname"/>

and I expect the following from the server

<presence from='room at conference.localhost/nickname' 
to='ssarkar at localhost/Exodus'/>
<message from='room at conference.localhost' to='ssarkar at localhost/Exodus' 
type='groupchat'><body>nickname has joined</body></message>

but the conference component returns no response and there are no  other error 
messages.

Using JabberApplet(version 1.1.0.32) that uses the new conference protocol, 
the message sent is

<presence><status>Online</status><priority>1</priority></presence>

<iq type="get" id="GroupChatJoin" to="room at conference.localhost"><query 
xmlns="jabber:iq:conference"/></iq>

and again there is no response from the conference component.

Running Jabber in debug mode, I have observed that the conference component 
gets registered.

In my Jabber.xml file, I have set the following inside the <browse> tag

 <conference type="public" jid="conference.localhost" name="Public ChatRooms"/>

and at the end of the file, I have

<service id='conference.localhost'>
     <conference xmlns="jabber:config:conference">
        <public/>
        <vcard>
           <FN>Public ChatRooms</FN>
           <DESC>This service is for public chatrooms.</DESC>
           <URL>http://jabber.to</URL>
        </vcard>
        <history>20</history>
        <notice>
           <join> has joined</join>
           <leave> has left</leave>
           <rename> is now known as</rename>
        </notice>
        <room jid="effector at conference.localhost">
           <name>The Effector chat room</name>
           <notice/>
        </room>
     </conference>
     <load>
        <conference>./conference-0.4/conference.so</conference>
     </load>
  </service>

I have created conference.so (phew !!) under cygwin and I am running 
everything under WindowsXP Professional.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
