If you’ve already downloaded the tar.gz package, you’ll want to just simply make sure that it has a normal file name instead of the downloadservlet\? garbage that you get if you download the link via wget.

Once the file has a proper name you can go to the next step to unpackage the tar ball:

sudo tar zxvf openfire_3_5_1.tar.gz

@Ben,

try:

sudo wget http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloads/download-landing.jsp?file=openfire/openfire_3_6_4.tar.gz

and see if that works.

when i run sudo mv downloadServlet\?filename\=openfire%2openfire_3_5_1.tar.gz openfire_3_5_1.tar.gz or sudo mv downloadServlet\?filename\=openfire%2openfire_3_6_4.tar.gz openfire_3_6_4.tar.gz

Installing OpenFire 3_5_1 appears to be more stable than Openfire 3.6.4.

I tried installing Openfire 3.6.4 and had to redo the installation so many times because of the admin-bug. I was unable to log in to Admin user after a while.

what's the error message that you receive when you try and log into phpmyadmin or load phpmyadmin from a browser?

At Install Openfire 3.5.1 ; Step3 I am not able to log into phpmyadmin. I have read of some people moving files to sort this problem but I don't know what file/directoriesI should from where to where. Can I get someadvice please.

Try and go to the URL:

http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloads/index.jsp

and click on the Linux button under Openfire 3.6.4 which is the current release, and you’ll see a bunch of links appear under the button:

openfire-3.6.4-1.i386.rpm RPM for Red Hat Linux and variants May 1, 200941.38 MB

openfire_3.6.4_all.deb Debian package, no Java JRE May 1, 200911.15 MB

JSopenfire-3.6.4-ALL.pkg.gz Solaris package, no Java JRE May 1, 20097.93 MB

openfire_3_6_4.tar.gz Works on most Unix variants, no Java JRE May 1, 20097.02 MB

Click on the last file: openfire_3_6_4.tar.gz and a new page will appear with a link:

Your download will start right now. If a download window does not appear, please click here.

Where it has click here, right click on that and copy the link, and use that in your wget, so it would be:

sudo wget http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloadServlet?filename=openfire/openfire_3_6_4.tar.gz

Let me know if that helps!
