asmack XMPP new user registration

Question

Good people of StackOverflow, please help. I\'ve set up an ejabberd server on my ubuntu machine, added virtual host, set {access, register, [{allow, all}]}. and registered

Answer 1

I found it! The problem is in server configuration (but I still don't understand why I could register new user from Pidgin before this change). Setting

%% In-band registration
{access, register, [{allow, all}]}.

doesn't seem to work with new versions of ejabberd. You need to add

{mod_register, [
      {access_from, register},
       ...
                ] ...

if You want to allow all users to register. If You want only admin to have this access, then you need to add new access rule

{access, register_from, [{allow, admin}]}.

and

{mod_register, [
      {access_from, register_from},
       ...
                ] ...
