Retrieving archive messages using openfire monitor

问题:

I use XMPP with openfire server for my website im. I've enabled monitoring service plugin, so I can archive messages.

When I send an iq stanza to retrieve a collection, the server response is an error iq stanza.

This is the request

<iq type='get' id='user13' xmlns='jabber:client'>
   <list xmlns='urn:xmpp:archive' with='b31315847fed0d6728d5fb763e4a53b09d6fb549@user-pc'>
     <set xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/rsm'>
        <max>
          10
        </max>
     </set>
   </list>
</iq>

And this is the server response :

<iq xmlns='jabber:client' type='error' id='user13' to='dff4bb27259100a5b158ba2477037da823d54229@user-pc/68154bb7'>
    <error code='501' type='cancel'>
        <feature-not-implemented xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'/>
    </error>
</iq>

When I take a look at openfire admin console, I can view the archived conversations, so I expect my request to work fine, which is not the case.

What's going on?

Your stanza is correct. But the plugin seems not working.

Openfire Monitoring plugin isn't designed for message archiving. The main purpose of this plugin is for traffic statistic logging & monitoring.

You can take a look on Monitoring Plugin readme page. Message archiving has just added in version 1.3. The message are saved but it's just for logging & monitoring purpose.

I've tried this plugin too & I can't retrieve message history by this plugin.

As a solution, you can install OpenArchive plugin rather than Openfire Monitoring plugin. This plugin is specified for message archiving & retrieval.

I've install OpenArchive 1.6 & it works for me.
