I have an ejabberd server running on Amazon EC2. I added users from the web admin console and then I tried to log in from Conversations app using the JID as my-name#ec2-3-142-252-179.us-east-2.compute.amazonaws.com and using the password assigned during registration. But it keeps on saying "server not found". Please tell me where I am doing wrong. Thank you.
Here is the screenshot of web admin console
Sign in page
I never used Amazon EC2, so I will only give you some wild ideas. Also, I don't have Conversations in English, so my translation may not be exactly like what you see:
A) In that same window, click in ... -> Preferences -> Experts Configuration -> Extended connection configuration: enable that option. Now you get another two fields, so you can tell there Conversations exacly the host (or the IP address) and port of ejabberd. Maybe adding it here helps?
B) When you attempt the connection in Conversations, do you get anything relevant in ejabberd.log or similar? I guess no
C) You can access ejabberd webadmin from your PC, but you can't from your Android phone. Just for curiosity, can you access the ejabberd webadmin from your mobile?
D) You can install some desktop Jabber client, like Gajim, Psi,... in your PC. Do those eclients connect to ejabberd, or faiol like Conversations?

I am new to the xmpp server and still learning. I have chosen ejabberd server for my chat application. I have started the server but can't able to access the web admin interface. as you can see the ejabberd#localhost is already running. configuration
I started the server and it was supposed to show web admin interface but unfortunately it is not showing. I don't know what am i doing wrong.
With that configuration, the webadmin page is in
http://localhost:5280/admin/
When the browser asks login credentials, provide the JID of some account in ejabberd with admin rights (it may be vinayak#localhost or something like that) and its password.
This means that you should have already registered an account in ejabberd, and grant it admin rights in ejabberd.yml configuration file, see https://docs.ejabberd.im/admin/installation/#administration-account
I need to integrate Microsoft Dynamics NAV web services on the website. They provided me with a list of services URLs to access in a browser to see the XML structure. When I open, I see Sign In window, I enter username and password but window still prompts me to enter details. My IP is whitelisted, server IP as well and I send SOAP requests from server's specific IP. But no results.
I asked them and they told that they can see the XML in a browser. For me, I can imagine why I cannot get any results because if in browser the authentication is not working, it will not work for the server requests too.
I tried to turn off antivirus, restart the internet, tried with other PC,etc...but nothing, same result - looped sign in window
(see the attachment).
Any ideas please? Thanks
This is also not working for me in Chrome. It works in IE/Edge with the credential manager from windows and in Firefox with basic credentials.
You could try to use the Boomerang SOAP and REST Client for Chrome.
I use Web Services only with IE/Edge.
In the background of your Screenshot the page says that you are not authorized (HTTP 401). Is your user also a user in Dynamics NAV/Business Central?
I've followed the guide:
Getting Started with Authentication with Mobile Services .NET for Windows Store
I'm able to run the service locally as long as I don't need to authenticate the user. I can also authenticate the user if I publish the service to Azure. But I want to be able to test and authenticate the user locally. How can this be done?
I'm using Live ID and I have the correct ClientID and ClientSecret set in the Web.config. When I attempt to call LoginAsync from the client the call fails with The request could not be completed. (Method Not Allowed)
** Update 2014-03-20 **
Based on the comments of Carlos and Henrik, I've updated my local service to look exactly like my server instance. I followed Scot Hanselmans excellent guide and now I have my service running locally on port 80 and port 443 with a completely valid SSL certificate. It's even running on the exact same https://xxxx.azure-mabile.net hostname.
With these changes, there is now no configuration difference whatsoever between running the app against my local machine or running it against Azure. I can go to https://xxxx.azure-mabile.net in the browser, get redirected to Live login, sign in, and get redirected back to the service successfully. In the browser it all works. However it still doesn't work in the app.
I attached the debugger, set CLR errors to "break when thrown" and I managed to trap the exception in the service. Here's what I see in the immediate window:
The Response property is not helpful. It does not provide any additional information about the problem.
The only thing that stands out to me is that the app is trying to do a POST to /login/microsoftaccount while the browser would normally be doing a GET at this address (then getting redirected).
** Update #2 2014-03-20 **
After following Henriks guide for remote debugging I was able to load symbols and get a tiny bit more information:
"An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host"
The error code is 10054 (WSAECONNRESET) Connection reset by peer.
It appears the Live Authentication server may be forcibly terminating the connection, but only when I'm authenticating with the app. Again, authentication within the browser is fine. This, combined with the fact that /login/microsoftaccount is a POST from the app seems to suggest there is a problem with the authentication token I'm getting back from LiveClient.LoginAsync. I'll do some more digging...
At the moment, it is set up so that you don't need authentication when running locally and access the service from localhost. In this case, anonymous access is let through (this is of course disabled while running in the cloud).
We don't really have a way for your to authenticate locally as redirect URIs won't work (they can't point to localhost as there is not way that Facebook, say, can resolve "localhost").
One option is that we somehow can mock the authentication locally and give you a token without connecting with the various identity providers. I am not sure exactly what that would look like but it is something we can consider.

Did you perhaps set Mobile client app: Yes in your Live Connect project? I think that setting is meant to be used with the Live Connect SDK (client) flow, not the browser-based (server) flow. The client flow isn't supported yet with a .NET backend.
You also want to make sure you are using LoginAsync(MobileServiceAuthenticationProvider.MicrosoftAccount) on the client to trigger the server flow.
I installed Ejabberd server and configured ExAuth for a php script. I am checking the chat with pidgin chat client on ubuntu and windows xp(in virtualbox). I am able to login via ExAuth (where users listed in my mysql database) in both ubuntu and windows with different users.
However They are unable to chat each other as each other status is showing as Not Authorized.
Early I checked with internal auth_method. Where i added two users via web admin, and then login both at windows and linux machine. When i add buddy, then request goes to other user, After request approval by other user, Chat was worked. But in ExAuth Even after sending request, Other user did not receive any request.
If any body know where can be the problem area ?
I think you are confusing authentication (allowing to open an XMPP session on the server) and presence subscription as defined in the roster (you should still be able to chat presence subscription is Independant from messaging).
In order to publish real-time updates to my app, Facebook needs needs to perform a post request to my server.
Problem is, my server is my home computer and not publicly addressable from the internet. Bringing a server live to implement this sounds like it could be a pain... can't attach debugger, fiddler etc....
So what's the best way to test the Http Endpoint? Integration tests that simulate the Facebook server? Fiddling with firewalls/NAT to try and get Facebook talking to my home computer?
Any ideas?
You can use ngrok - https://ngrok.com/ - free (pay-what-you-can) service that does exactly what you need. Localtunnel service is down and the developers also recommend ngrok.
In the past, I've used LocalTunnel to do this. It's a nice wrapper around an SSH tunnel and it effectively assigns you a subdomain at localtunnel.com pointing to a port on your localhost.
So basically, when you run it it will spit back an externally accessible sub domain name like xyz.localtunnel.com who's port 80 will point a port you specify on your local box.
You can find it at: http://progrium.com/localtunnel/
It's really great for testing various pubsubhubbub subscription feeds (like Facebook's).
OK! I think NAT should be the best bet and I don't see a reason for it not to work. You should try it out.
It was actually pretty easy - Logged into my home router, set up port forwarding on port 80 to the local IP of my computer, put an exception in windows firewall for port 80. and then navigate to my public IP address in the browser.
Implement the receiver samples at: https://github.com/facebook/real-time/tree/master/samples
The only answer is to get a webserver that is publicly accessible for real-time updates to be able to call back to.
There's lots of free webhosts that allow server-side scripting. And there's lots of paid for webhosts out there too. Stackoverflow is really not the place to get leads on where/when/why/howmuch for web hosting.
No you can't use ngrok only to simulate facebook realtime update since you must make a call to facebook servers with your ngrok adress to validate it (tell me if you find out how to do this :p ).
I use an openshift server to receive facebook realtime and then post evry json data received from facebook to my ngrok adress. So the process is
set up an openshift server to receive facebook notifications
Facebook sends notifications to your openshift
your openshift sends datas (as received) to your ngrok adress
And if you must receive facebook notifications on a local website (like www.website.dev/fb-notifications/) then create a script in your localhost folder which receives openshift posts (let's call it tunelscript.php). the process will be
set up an openshift server to receive facebook notifications
Facebook sends notifications to your openshift
your openshift sends datas (as received) to your tunel script via your ngrok adress (perso.ngrok.com/tunelscript.php)
Relay datas from your tunelscript to your local website (tunelscript.php => www.website.dev/fb-notifications/)
That's Tuneling B-)
