ejabberd 17.09 fails to start on F-27. 17.07 is the last version that works. If it may help, erl is invoked in ejabberdctl in a completely different way between both versions. I didn't investigate the root cause of the problem further :
17.07 : /usr/lib64/erlang/bin/erl -sname ejabberd@localhost +K true -smp auto +P 250000 -mnesia dir '"/var/lib/ejabberd"' -ejabberd log_rate_limit 100 log_rotate_size 10485760 log_rotate_count 1 log_rotate_date '""' -s ejabberd -noinput -detached
17.09: /usr/lib64/erlang/bin/erl -sname 639022e8-ctl-ejabberd@localhost +K true -smp auto +P 250000 -hidden -noinput -s ejabberd_ctl -extra ejabberd@localhost --ctl-config /etc/ejabberd/ejabberdctl.cfg --spool /var/lib/ejabberd --logs /var/log/ejabberd start
with the error : Failed RPC connection to the node ejabberd@localhost: nodedown

Thanks for testing @bellet - I can reproduce the problem here too.

I believe the problem is that the script has changed in two ways: The first is that it uses
$1in the case statement at the end to determine which command you are running. The old invocation worked with arguments first and then the command, but now the command (such asstartorstopmust be the first positional argument. This needs to be fixed in the systemd unit file.After fixing that, I found another problem. When invoked with
sudo,ejabberdctlusessuto switch to theejabberduser. This would be fine, except that theejabberduser's shell is set tonologinso this fails. The unit file runs the script asejabberdso that not necessarily a problem there, but it would affect usingejabberdctlon the command line to manage the server. This is fixed by inserting a-s /bin/shin thesuline inexec_cmd().I also found a third issue, which is that the new
mod_avatarmodule seems to be enabled by default, but ejabberd is not built with graphics support. I must have failed to notice that it was enabled in the default config, so I will alter the config to switch that off. IIRC, we need to package a new dependency in order to makemod_avatarwork. We can do that, but i haven't had the time so far.Thanks again for testing! I am sad that i didn't notice these things before posting the update.
I've filed #1524199 to track the issue.
