Ejabberd source code Installation in windows 10 - ejabberd

I want to know the procedure to install Ejabberd from source code in windows 10. In their documentation, the installation with source code is only given for the Linux based operating system. I am struggling to find any good documentation on the same.

I think the windows installer is, in fact, compiled and packaged in Linux or other operating system. Following this reasoning, there's a way to get your self-compiled ejabberd running in Windows:
Download and install the latest ejabberd binary package in your Windows server. See what Erlang/OTP version and what ejabberd version you have.
Now, go to a development machine where you know ejabberd can be compiled: GNU/Linux, BSD, maybe Mac.
Download the same Erlang/OTP version, and download the source code of the same ejabberd version
Compile ejabberd
Copy the resulting *.beam files from the development machine to the Windows server, overwriting the originally installed ones

Install Dreamfactory on Xampp

I have been trying to install Dreamfactory on Xampp but can't find a single article on how to do so.
Purpose: To generate REST API in php with mysql.
What I have tried:
Initially I installed windows version of
Dreamfactory from official site. It was installed successfully but it don't allow access to MYSQL database in free version. Paid version is out of my budget, so I tried with Xampp. I downloaded open-source version from
Github. After extracting it, executed php artisan serve in xampp command shell as mentioned on Dreamfactory Wikipedia Installation guide. This resulted in following error:
Warning: require(D:\xampp\htdocs\sandbox\dreamfactory\public/../vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in D:\xampp\htdocs\sandbox\dreamfactory\public\index.php on line 24
Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required 'D:\xampp\htdocs\sandbox\dreamfactory\public/../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='D:\xampp\php\PEAR') in D:\xampp\htdocs\sandbox\dreamfactory\public\index.php on line 24
As mentioned in Git documentation, they have given installation procedures for Ubuntu and Debian. Further more, they have mentioned about Bitnami official installation software, but non for XAMPP or stuff like that.
Question:
Is there any way we can install Dreamfactory on XAMPP? If yes, how so!
I'd venture it's going to be fairly difficult task to run DreamFactory on XAMPP because DreamFactory requires quite a few dependencies which are not installed on XAMPP by default.
Your best bet would be to run the Bitnami for DreamFactory environment, or alternatively use Docker. Both can be downloaded from the DreamFactory website downloads page. Alternatively, if you'd like to run DreamFactory in a VM, the OSS download README points to automated installers for Debian and Ubuntu. Additional installers for CentOS and Fedora are found here, they work great however we just haven't moved them into the official distribution yet.

Where can I access the files created on the windows 10 ubuntu app?

I downloaded the windows 10 version of ubuntu to work on a python research project for school. I created a .csv file in the ubuntu terminal but I do not know where I can access that file from.
Thank you for any help.
For Ubuntu installed from the Microsoft Store:
Each distribution you install through the Microsoft Store is installed to that application's appdata directory. For example: C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Packages\CanonicalGroupLimited.Ubuntu18.04onWindows_79rhkp1fndgsc\LocalState\source
The default Ubuntu 18.04 /home directory is located in C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Packages\CanonicalGroupLimited.Ubuntu18.04onWindows_79rhkp1fndgsc\LocalState\rootfs\home\

Launch Beyond Compare(Win) for Mercurial Merge(Linux) using XServer

I've beyondcompare licence for my windows machine and I can't use that licence for linux installation. I work on linux server via putty from my windows system.
I could launch linux visual merge tools like meld using X server. But I'm looking for a way to use X server/X11 to launch beyondcompare from my putty session. In short, I want to launch a windows application itself from the linux env over putty.
My last choice would be to pull changes to my windows machine and do a merge on windows; push it back. But it would be nice if I could launch beyondcompare from linux.
Any Ideas?
It isn't possible to launch a diff/merge in the Windows version of Beyond Compare from a Linux system via SSH. There are three possible workarounds:
Upgrade your license to a multi-platform license and use the Linux
version of Beyond Compare.
Run the Windows version of Beyond Compare on your Windows machine and access the files on the Linux machine using the SFTP support built into Beyond Compare Pro.
Install Mercurial on your Windows machine, then check out files and
diff/merge from there. See the Using Beyond Compare With Version
Control Systems article to configure BC as the
diff and merge tool for Mercurial on Windows.

How install and configure mysql 5.6.16 in windows 7

I downloaded the zip file for Mysql 5.6.16, but there is no .exe file in the folder.
All the instructions online are saying install through .msi file.
How can i install and configure mysql 5.6.16 in windows 7 ??
Thanx in advance
As described in How to install MySQL on Windows 7?:
The installer installs the following software in your computer
a.) MySQL Server
b.) MySQL Connectors
c.) MySQL Workbench and sample
models
d.) MySQL for Excel
e.) MySQL Notifier
f.) MySQL for Visual
Studio
g.) Sample Databases
h.) Documentation
Download the installer here : http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/
There are two options available: (as on 31 Jan 2014 , the latest version is 5.6.16)
(i) mysql-installer-web-community-5.6.16.0.msi – 1.5MB
(ii) mysql-installer-community-5.6.16.0.msi – 250.8MB
I personally prefer the 2nd option. This helps me to keep the .msi file as backup in my computer. I can install MySQL whenever I need to
even if I am offline.
After downloading the 250 MB file, double click it to start the installation process. Now it is simple as installing any software on
windows 7.
Once you are done with the installation download the official document
Direct link for A4 size pdf –
http://downloads.mysql.com/docs/refman-5.6-en.a4.pdf
Now click the “MySQL Notifier” in programs menu. The Notifier icon appears in the task bar (right bottom). Right click on the small red
icon and select “start” the server option.
Click the “MySQL Workbench” in the programs menu. Start creating databases/schemas/tables/SQL scripts.
You can install mysql server on windows, using mysql web community installer. The web community installer is 32 bit, but you can use it install mysql on both 32 bit and 64 bit windows machines.

Install Windows (x86, 32-bit), MSI Installer) from this link , even if your are using 64 bit operating system. MySQL Installer is 32 bit, but will install both 32 bit and 64 bit binaries.

How to install ejabberd community version on Windows XP?

I am a bit confused the link to use to install ejabberd on my windows XP box [http://www.ejabberd.im] ? What are the steps involved and dependencies there off?
=====UPDATE=====
I installed ejabberd windows version from link as mentioned in reply thread - but when I started the app it stated:
Starting ejabberd...
./ejabberdctl: e:\bin\erl.exe: can't execute: (14001) Error 14001
There is a problem starting Erlang.
If the error you see is 14001, you need to install:
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package
You can download that installer from www.microsoft.com
You can also check the ejabberd Administrator Guide
But even after downloading the package http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=5638 and successfully installing I still get the same error?
Please let me know how to resolve the same?
You could install 2.1.11 using the installer provided by Process-One here. Windows installer for 2.1.13 is not there yet.
no additional dependencies are required as ejabberd installer includes a build of Erlang runtime.
But really I fail to see what's the problem with putting up a cheap box running some free OS (I'd personally recommend Debian) where ejabberd would be installable via the OS's package manager, and will be upgraded along with the rest of the OS when the next release comes out.
