== Chat Server Setup == 

1. Install a JRE: 1.5.0 or later. You can check your java version by typing "java -version" at the command line and (if necessary) upgrade your Java installation by visiting http://java.sun.com.

On Debian you can use:
{{{
apt-get install openjdk-6-jre
}}}

2. Download Openfire server tarball (recommended version: 3.9.3):
{{{
cd /tmp
wget http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloadServlet?filename=openfire/openfire_3_9_3.tar.gz -O openfire.tar.gz
}}}

3. Extract the archive to /opt :
{{{
cd /opt
sudo tar zxvf /tmp/openfire.tar.gz
cd /opt/openfire/bin
./openfire start
}}}
Doing this will enable web console.
Open the browser with url http://<ip of the server>:9090/

4. Follow through the onscreen steps to set up web console.
Basic Steps:
* Language Selection
* Server Settings: Choose default
* Database settings: Select embedded as of now since database integration is still in progress. 
* Profile Settings: Default (store users and groups in the server database)
* Admin account: Give a valid email address for user 'admin'

5. After logging into admin console as 'admin' go into server settings tab, go into HTTP Binding and enable 'Clients can connect to this server using HTTP binding.' and save the settings.

The port numbers can be changed to whichever you like.
The default ports are 7070 and 7443.
This port number is the one which will be used to connect by Sahana Eden Chat. So the chat ip to be entered in 000_config file will be "<public ip>:<port selected>".

Go to Server->Server Settings->HTTP Binding and enable script syntax.

6. Go into plugins, from Available Plugins install 
* Client Control 
* Presence Service
* Search(will already be installed)    
* User Creation
* User import Export
* Registration
* Broadcast

If for some reason you cannot see available plugins you can upload jar files after downloading from https://www.igniterealtime.org/projects/openfire/plugins.jsp.
