XMPP Server, smack API connectivity

Question

I am trying to connect to Tigase Server, implement a client in Java using smack API.

    ConnectionConfiguration config = new ConnectionConfiguration("192.32.104.93", 5222, "ELVES-D463645");
    Connection connection =  new XMPPConnection(config);
    connection.connect();

When code reaches connect. I get following stacktrace.

stream:error (host-unknown)
    at org.jivesoftware.smack.PacketReader.parsePackets(PacketReader.java:214)
    at org.jivesoftware.smack.PacketReader.access$000(PacketReader.java:44)
    at org.jivesoftware.smack.PacketReader$1.run(PacketReader.java:70)
No response from the server.:

    at com.directv.xmpp.client.poc.FirstClient.main(FirstClient.java:20)
XMPPException Occured while connecting to server No response from the server.

Can anyone please help me find, where am I going wrong. Thanks!

I found the solution to it.

I was entering the service name and hostname in wrong place.

and because my server is locally hosted. following code stub worked for connection with Tigase Server.

ConnectionConfiguration config = new ConnectionConfiguration("localhost", 5222, "yourdomain");

yourdomain shoulde be the domain name which was entered earlier while installation and configuration of the server.

Thank you all for your help though.

ConnectionConfiguration config = new ConnectionConfiguration("192.32.104.93", 5222, "ELVES-D463645");

The serviceName, third argument of the ConnectionConfiguration constructor, seems to be wrong. I would expect something like a domain here (example.com).

I've hosted a Tigase XMPP Server locally, for which that is domain name I had used while installing and configuring. The domain name appeared by default which is my machine name on the network. – Hiren Sep 06 '13 at 22:24
`ELVES-D463645` is not a valid DNS domain nor is it a valid XMPP ServiceName, which is expected here. – Flow Sep 07 '13 at 09:02

You did not even reach the Tigase server. The error appears to be related to either configuration of the DNS or to parameters you pass to the Smack library. I do not know Smack API but from the error you attach it looks like you provide incorrect hostname, or at least a hostname which does not have a correct DNS entry. This is fine and you should still be able to connect to the server if you can provide IP address as well.

Do you think hostname should be "localhost" when I have hosted a Tigase XMPP Server locally. – Hiren Sep 06 '13 at 22:25

Try below, or check your XMPP server Authentication setting

ConnectionConfiguration config = new ConnectionConfiguration(XMPP_HOST, XMPP_PORT);
config.setCompressionEnabled(false);
config.setSASLAuthenticationEnabled(false);
connection = new XMPPConnection(config);

Thanks Browny Lin, but I am not able to even reach the server, some configuration issues, but I'll surely try as what you suggested, once I reach the server. BTW, I forgot to mention, that I am using a Tigase XMPP Server, which is hosted locally. Thank you. – Hiren Sep 06 '13 at 22:27

Here is a code for Smack 4.3.4

 XMPPTCPConnectionConfiguration conf = XMPPTCPConnectionConfiguration.builder()
                .setHostAddress(InetAddress.getByName(host))
                .setXmppDomain(JidCreate.domainBareFrom(Domain))
                .setUsernameAndPassword("username", "password")
                .setPort(5222) 
                .build();
        AbstractXMPPConnection connection = new XMPPTCPConnection(conf);
        connection.connect();
        connection.login();
