We are utilizing OpenFire 3.9.3 running on server 2012r2 and the database (openfire) is on Microsoft SQL2005. We have installed OpenFire with no errors and have gotten to the database settings section in the setup. We have followed the setup guides for OpenFire (http://www.igniterealtime.org/builds/openfire/docs/latest/documentation/install- guide.html) and the Database (http://www.igniterealtime.org/builds/openfire/docs/latest/documentation/database .html). However are unable to continue through the setup interface.
We first had issues with the following warnings while creating the SQL Database:
Warning! The maximum key length is 900 bytes.
The index 'ofRoster_jid_idx' has maximum length of 2048 bytes. For some combination of large values, the insert/update operation will fail.
Warning! The maximum key length is 900 bytes.
The index 'ofSASLAuthorized_pk' has maximum length of 4128 bytes. For some combination of large values, the insert/update operation will fail
The SQL server would not create the tables, We then found the board (https://community.igniterealtime.org/message/242768#242768) with speedy’s solution to change the value of the jid, and principle. This did allow the openfire server to create the tables correctly in the SQL database. However now we are getting the following error in the openfire setup when we click continue:
The Openfire database schema does not appear to be installed. Follow the installation guide to fix this issue.
Below are the follow settings we are using:
Database driver preset: Microsoft SQLserver
JDBC Driver Class: net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver
Database URL: jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://hostname:1433/openfire;appName=jive (*note* we are inserting our computer's name, where it says hostname)
We are using the username and password for the SQL database that was created for the database and is also the Database owner.
Any assistance on this issue would be appreciated.
