How to compile mod_archive2 module

Steps I done

$ cd to_mod_archive2_dir

$ erl -make

Recompile: src/xmpp_api_ejabberd
src/xmpp_api_ejabberd.erl:29: can't find include file "ejabberd.hrl"

src/xmpp_api_ejabberd.erl:93: Warning: function iq_type_to_string/1 is unused
src/xmpp_api_ejabberd.erl:99: Warning: function iq_to_xml/1 is unused

Then I copied ejabberd.hrl from ejabberd/include to src of mod_archive

$ erl -make

Recompile: src/xmpp_api_ejabberd

src/xmpp_api_ejabberd.erl:99: Warning: function iq_to_xml/1 is unused

Then I get the exmpp code from processsone/exmpp

Now I am having these error's

$ erl -make

Recompile: src/xmpp_api_ejabberd
src/xmpp_api_ejabberd.erl:46: undefined macro 'INFO_MSG/2'

@ndl Please guide me, Thanks in advance

[rahulgautam]

@ndl It must be that I have not included module error_logger.
I do not know how to do that.

For now I have commented the function export and call for info_msg and error_msg in src/xmpp_api_ejabberd.erl

Please let me know, how to do it right. I am complete newbie for erlang and all.
Thanks

@ndl after commenting logging function calls, I have the beam of mod_archive2, that I have successfully placed in ejabberd/ebin.

Now ejabberd server does not start.

Here is my_ejabberd.cfg

[rahulgautam]

@ndl this "100,98,109,115,95,115,116,111,114,97,103,101,95" converts to "dbms_storage_"
is this some hard code string name that is used in code or just an erlang crash statement that says the function name.

[ndl]

You're likely missing all the supporting beams, including dbms_storage* ones. You should compile all .erl files in mod_archive2/src directory. Either use make.sh script in the mod_archive2 root directory (assumes ejabberd sources are side-by-side to mod_archive2) and get resulting beams from "ebin" directory or copy these sources to the ejabberd source directory and compile ejabberd "as normal".

Hi @ndl,

Can we use mod_archive2 with ejabberd 13.12? Actually we are trying to plug mod_archive2 with ejabberd 13.12, but not able to. So just wanted to confirm if it's a compatible combination. If not can you please suggest what to use with ejabberd 13.12 to save the message to mysql db.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

hi rakesh,

mod_archive2 was for ejabberd 3.0 in mind, as such is not compatible straight away with ejab 13.x.

you can try looking into mongooseim's mod_mam_archive, and try to import it into ejab.

hi @softwarejoint :

I am using ejabberd 14.07.Can I use mod_archive2?I cant switch to Mongoose.
