Nothing yet. Note that it's listed for version 1.1.3. 
(It will turn off mail notifications from ICQ)

Having problems editing the values of gateway.jar. I would like to enable the gateway from Jabber to MSN, Yahoo, etc...but I have no idea how to access the properties. Double clicking gateway.jar and I get a message "Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from c:/...gateway.jar"
From there, I converted gateway.jar to a .zip file, extracted it and went to the manifest file. Can you please tell me what the Main-Class is supposed to be? Or how I should go about in order to change these properties? Thanks.

in response to: OFnoob
Oh that's a good point, I should write that at the top of this document. You don't edit anything in gateway.jar directly. Instead install it under Openfire like other plugins and go to your admin console under "System Properties" and make the settings there. That said, most of it you won't have to edit anything directly. Look towards the bottom of the admin console screen and you'll see a Gateway section with Settings and Registrations. Settings is what you are looking for. =) There's just a few of these properties above that can only be set via system properties directly.
OFnoob says:

Hey jadestorm,
Thanks for the fast reply, I didn't expect you to answer so quickly =)
Ok, well it's good to know I don't have to actually edit gateway.jar itself.
I looked in the IM gateway documentation and it says, "This plugin is configured via the "Gateways" sidebar item located in the Openfire Admin Console. You can enable individual transports via the "Settings" sidebar item, and add new registrations/view existing registrations from the "Registrations" sidebar item", which I assume is what you said in your comment as well ^^
The only problem is, I can't see Gateway with Settings and Registrations section at the bottom of the admin console. I mean, I have found the System Properties page, with several properties such as cache.GatewayRegistrationCache.min and cache.GatewaySessionLocationCache.type, but there's no Gateway section anywhere in the admin.
I've added the IM Gateway's properties for Openfire to communicate with MSN (copy and pasted the property name and value from here to Add new property in the System Properties page) but I can't add contacts from my Jabber client (Exodus).
I've become bald from scratching my head so much, will appreciate your response!

Does the Gateway section not appear because I am not using Enterprise edition of Openfire?
OFnoob says:
in response to: jadestorm
In the "server" tab of the Openfire admin console, the only sub-tabs that I can see that have the word "settings" are Email, Profile, Security, Compression, File Transfer, and STUN Settings...no Gateway Settings.
OFnoob says:
in response to: OFnoob
Just one more thing, I remembered that OpenFire has lately been throwing a constant error:
Found old database version 5 for gateway...upgrading to version 6.
gateway - Database update failed. Please manually upgrade your database.
Does this mean because the MySQL version is not up to date, it is messing up the admin console, causing the Gateway Tab not to show up? I'm not sure because the error seems vague (unfamiliar with these terms)...

We should move this conversation to a forum thread, not as comments to a document. =) Unfortunately I don't see a nifty administrative way to "just move it". =/

are these settings current for plugin version 1.2.3?
jadestorm says:
in response to: americancaesar2
They should be. Is something missing that you expected to see?
americancaesar2 says:
in response to: jadestorm
just that plugin.gateway.msn.avatars is in my system properties and not in this list... plugin.gateway.msn.registrationstrict seems to have a setting in the gui that is similar but it is not configured by default in my system properties. having said that, i have had issues with my gateway plugin and will be removing it and re-installing it this evening. maybe it is my issue and the plugin.gateway.msn.avatars property no longer exists.

in response to: americancaesar2
plugin.gateway.msn.autonickname seems also to be missing
americancaesar2 says:
in response to: americancaesar2
Just as a follow up the property is still there after removal and reinstallation of the gateway plugin. It may just be an arbitrary artifact at this point and no longer recognized by the server (?) or a legit property...
jadestorm says:
in response to: americancaesar2
Properties do not go away when you uninstall plugins. You may want to install them again later and pick up your own settings, and in general we try not to second guess the folk running the server. =)
americancaesar2 says:
in response to: jadestorm
Basically, then if it's not on the list it is an artifact of a previous instance and no longer relevant i.e. safe to remove?
what does
