Error exitted "normal"

[danielrnrz]

Hello,

I downloaded the script but I got an error.

When I start the server , in /var/log/ejabberd.log , I got this error

C(:extauth:146) : extauth script has exitted abruptly with reason 'normal'

I installed Python required modules but I'm still having this error.
Any idea about this issue ?

Can you set the debug level in the script to logging.DEBUG and check /var/log/ejabberd/extauth.log and /var/log/ejabberd/extauth_err.log?

I set the level to 5 (Debug) on the ejabberd.cfg file but the files extauth.log and extauth_err.log don't exist when I start ejabberd, there's still the same error.

You need to set the log level for my script in the script itself. See line 36 of check_mysql_python.py. You may need to create the folder where the logfiles should go (/var/log/ejabberd/) before starting ejabberd and set the permissions so that ejabberd can create files there.

I did it , these files have been created , there is no error in the ejabberd.log and in extauth_err.log. But I can't login to my administration panel and I tried to register a new user using ejabberdctl register ..... but it doesn't appears in the database. Before using the script , I used odbc with plaintext passwords in the database. Does it matter if I used odbc ?

The extauth.log file contains :

2013-05-12 13:27:35,594 INFO extauth script started, waiting for ejabberd requests
2013-05-12 13:27:35,596 DEBUG start of infinite loop

Ok, so the problem is the communication between ejabberd and the script. I'm very busy for the next three weeks. Maybe the script is not compatible to the version of ejabberd you are using. I will have to look into this when I have more time. You will have to investigate the problem your self or wait until I have time.

Ok thank you. I'm going to try to find what's wrong with it.

For the record: Here is the documentation of the external auth protocol: http://htmlpreview.github.io/?http://github.com/processone/ejabberd/blob/master/doc/dev.html#htoc9

Hello,

I edited the script to hash password only in SHA-1 , after that , it is working except the registration and in the administration console , I can't load the page in Virtual Servers. I'm going to continue to see what's wrong with it.

I'm having a similar issue ever since I upgraded to 2.1.x - maybe that's related?
