Unable to connect to eJabberd server using strophe

I have setup an eJabberd server on my local machine. When i enter the below url in the browser:

http://localhost:5280/admin

It prompts me for the admin user name and password and then the page appears as shown below(Under the Virtual Hosts section):

enter image description here

Note: syed-virtualbox and localhost are both one and the same

As shown in the above image, i have added 2 new users usr1 and usr2.

Now inorder to test is my server is working, I am downloading the samples/examples of the Library Strophe.js from this url:

https://github.com/strophe/strophejs/archive/v1.2.14.tar.gz

The samples can be found under the Examples folder of the extracted Directory. As shown below:

Now i edit all the js/javascript files in this directory and change the parameter BOSH_SERVICE to point to my localhost i.e. http://localhost:5280/xmpp-httpbind as shown in the below image:

enter image description here

Now, i start using the basic.html file in the browser and enter the JID as usr1 (As mentioned in Unable to connect to ejabberd localhost )and its password. I get the below response:

enter image description here

Note: I get the same response even if i use usr1@localhost or usr1@syed-virtualbox

So i would like to know is there something that i'm doing wrong?
OR
Can someone provide me some working sample of Strophe on localhost?
Solution

  • Please check your configuration file and see if tls is true or false under bosh configuration. If tls is true then please use HTTPS over HTTP when connecting to the bosh service URL.
