Thanks in advance Hello,

I have the same issue of authentication:
I(:ejabberd_c2s:598) : ({socket_state,tls,{tlssock,#Port,#Port},}) Failed authentication for user1@localhost

I have try with version 1 and version 2 of scripts. I have no log in debug and logging files. Even if I create the two files and gives them the user and group ejabberd.

ejabberd version : 2.1.5-3
Wordpress version 3.2.1 with buddypress 1.5

A new error! The system was working fine but I just retested and now I get this when I try to connect: I(:ejabberd_c2s:649) : ({socket_state,tls,{tlssock,#Port,#Port},}) Failed authentication for username@mysite.com Does that mean anything to you? It connects, and seems to recognize the account name, but it won't accept my password. I've tried with a new test account and my old account, and I know I typed it right. Sorry to be a bother, but I need to get this working :( Argh! A new error! The system was working fine but I just retested and now I get this when I try to connect:

The problem was I had not used chmod +x on the auth.php. You should add that to the instructions, I missed your comment on it before! All working!

Have you made sure that XML RPC is working correctly? You can find XML RPC testers online where you can verify it's working correctly for your WordPress installation. This script assumes a few things: - you're running a server with https enabled - your blog is in the root of the server Change the functions checkuser and checkpass to compensate for these things if they are different. Also, you might have issues with including the class-IXR file in your auth.php script. If this isn't working correctly, you can try commenting out the two includes (checkuser and checkpass again) and then copy/paste the code from the class to the bottom of the auth.php script.

Make sure the xmlrpc functions have the same name in auth.php and the WordPress plugin (also, enable xml-rpc in wordpress) That and sometimes you need to reset ejabberd as it caches password attempts/fails Set up the plugin?

That and sometimes you need to reset ejabberd as it caches password attempts/fails

However now I'm getting a password failed error. I'll have a look and see if I can figure it out, if you have any ideas of what to check let me know.

Unfortunately I’m still getting an error: “C(:extauth:146) : extauth script has exitted abruptly with reason 'normal'” I don’t suppose you have any idea why this would be happening? No problem!
