Hi,
Has anyone suceed on installing openfire on NS7b2?
I´m stuck on starting the services,

I have already installed the dependencies (glibc.i686) and set the openfire as a service.
I have also set the firewall with all the desired ports.

Starting openfire (via systemctl): Job for openfire.service failed. See ‘systemctl status openfire.service’ and ‘journalctl -xn’ for details. [FAILED]

The reason:
systemd[1]: Failed to read PID from file /var/run/openfire.pid: Invalid argument

Thanks,

Never tried, but check this: https://lipovetskiy.wordpress.com/2015/04/28/openfire-3-10-on-top-of-centos-7/

It seems you should install also zlib.i686 and libstdc++.i686

Hi,
Thanks for repplying.
I had already installed these dependencies and I had the same error.
The error message is misleading, and with that, it took me a while to figure the problem.

I installed and I´m running now.
I should provide a how-to for who wants to run openfire as a chat server.

Best regards,
