[JDEV] using roommaker

[Rob Davis]

OK - I managed to fix the bugs in roommaker.pl - a badly formed MKDIR
command on line 79 and an undeclared variable used for the file handler.

So now I am running roommaker.pl without any bugs and it is writing the
rooms.xml file.

Then I restart Jabber, browse using my client or Exodus and... no rooms
appear...

Here's the command I'm issuing in my client:

<iq type="get" to="conference.localhost" id="rooms"><query
xmlns="jabber:iq:browse" /></iq>

And here's what i get back:

<iq type="result" to="rob at myjabberurl.com" id="rooms"
from="conference.localhost"><conference xmlns="jabber:iq:browse"
type="public" name="Public
Chatrooms"><ns>http://jabber.org/protocol/muc</ns><ns>jabber:iq:register
</ns><ns>jabber:iq:version</ns><ns>jabber:iq:time</ns><ns>jabber:iq:last
</ns></conference></iq>

If I create a room in Exodus, it does allow that to be browsed:

<iq type="result" to="rob at myjabberurl.com" id="rooms"
from="conference.localhost"><conference xmlns="jabber:iq:browse"
type="public" name="Public
Chatrooms"><ns>http://jabber.org/protocol/muc</ns><ns>jabber:iq:register
</ns><ns>jabber:iq:version</ns><ns>jabber:iq:time</ns><ns>jabber:iq:last
</ns><conference type="public" jid="test at conference.localhost"
name="test (1/30)" /></conference></iq>

I've tried creating rooms that are both private and public in roommaker,
but neither seem browseable.

Any ideas?

Rob

p.s. here are the changes i made to get roommaker to work:

change line 79 to:
(change to mkdir("$spooldir/$server", 0777);

lines 185-187
open(DATA, ">$spooldir/$server/$hash.xml");
print DATA XMLout($output, rootname => "xdb");
close(DATA);

lines 210-212
open(DATA, ">$spooldir/$server/rooms.xml");
print DATA XMLout($roomsconfig, rootname => "xdb");
close(DATA);
