I have followed your instructions and I have set up everything like on your video but when I add my Asterisk server it does not show up green and I have the following error message on my asterisk server: &lt;br&gt;2014-05-15 15:47:20] NOTICE[3033]: manager.c:2623 authenticate: 192.168.0.7 failed to authenticate as 'admin'&lt;br&gt;Of course I had carefully verified the password on the different config files on Asterisk and by the way I use the default password (that is amp111), so I wonder if there is any special configuration that needs to be done on the Asterisk server to let the Openfire server connect on it. Please let me know. Thanks a lot for your kind help.configuration that need to be done on the asterisk server to let the openfire server connect on it ? please let me know&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">roy</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 15 May 2014 14:56:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Setup Openfire Chat Server &amp;#038; Spark IM Client w/ Asterisk Presence</title><link>https://benperove.com/setup-openfire-chat-server-and-configure-asterisk-im-plugin/#comment-1758483290</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Can i use a open source soft phone like, linphone&lt;br&gt;for a setup with my asterisk server and openfire?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks in advance.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Peter</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 10 Nov 2013 03:41:02 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Setup Openfire Chat Server &amp;#038; Spark IM Client w/ Asterisk Presence</title><link>https://benperove.com/setup-openfire-chat-server-and-configure-asterisk-im-plugin/#comment-1758483286</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Hello, I've installed Openfire on my Windows server 2008 and when I try to setup for the first time, I'm unable to connect to the database I have created on my asterisk machine.

I am using mysql as database for openfire. I am using Spark 2.6.3 client. Users are able to chat, make video calls thru Redfire plugin. I have installed Asterisk 1.8.12.0. In openfire asterisk server is showing registered (green button) in Asterisk-IM pulgin configuration page. I have mapped sip account with users. Now problem is that SIP accounts are not showing resitered in Asterisk and users are not able to make calls thru phone menu/button from spark client. I am able to make calls if I directly register sip client like xlite on asterisk server. I am getting following log in Asterisk  when I try make call from Spark client:-&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;channel.c:5346 __ast_request_and_dial: Unable to request channel SIP/1001&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Can anyone share config files of working openfire asterisk-im setup i.e. extenstions.conf and sip.conf.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Kindly help.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Vijay Singh</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 30 May 2012 10:29:55 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Setup Openfire Chat Server &amp;#038; Spark IM Client w/ Asterisk Presence</title><link>https://benperove.com/setup-openfire-chat-server-and-configure-asterisk-im-plugin/#comment-1758483283</link><description>&lt;p&gt;i followed all your screencast the users see others i added asterisk Im plugin all is ok, the problem is when i try to add users/extensions , they don't log in to asterisk infact i not able to make calls with sparks and they don't are online in asterisk.. can you help me?!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Carlo</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 23 May 2012 10:05:29 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Setup Openfire Chat Server &amp;#038; Spark IM Client w/ Asterisk Presence</title><link>https://benperove.com/setup-openfire-chat-server-and-configure-asterisk-im-plugin/#comment-1758483287</link><description>&lt;p&gt;IM spark i do not need Broadcast message, how to disable/remove that's plugins on the tools&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;help me pls....&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;thanks ..SUT&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">sutarno</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 21 Nov 2011 01:57:45 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Setup Openfire Chat Server &amp;#038; Spark IM Client w/ Asterisk Presence</title><link>https://benperove.com/setup-openfire-chat-server-and-configure-asterisk-im-plugin/#comment-1758483291</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Ben,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thank you very much for putting this how-to together.

This was the case with Openfire; it took at least a few minutes to restart the service each time. Are you running Asterisk 1.4 or 1.6? Do you have enough free memory on the server or are you swapping to disk?&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Ben</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 27 Dec 2010 05:44:45 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Setup Openfire Chat Server &amp;#038; Spark IM Client w/ Asterisk Presence</title><link>https://benperove.com/setup-openfire-chat-server-and-configure-asterisk-im-plugin/#comment-1758483277</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Thanks for the screencast.For some reason when ever I add the Asterisk server in Astetrisk-IM the CPU usage spikes.
