Description:

Since ejabberd 17.03 dialback s2s logic was moved into separate module, but this module is not presented in default Archlinux configuration, thus fresh installations of ejabberd will fail to connect to a lot of xmpp servers. Affected users will see error in their ejabberd.log similar to this:

2017-05-19 15:08:41.713 [info] <0.567.0>@ejabberd_s2s_out:handle_auth_failure:242 (tls|<0.573.0>) Failed outbound s2s EXTERNAL authentication user_node -> remote_node (8.8.8.8): Authentication failed: Peer provided no SASL mechanisms

To fix this error one have to add line
mod_s2s_dialback: {}
to the "modules" secion of ejabberd.yml

Additional info:
* package version: 17.04-2

Why type was changed to "feature request"? This config option exist in default ejabberd configuration and without it ejabberd can't connect to many servers (for example jabber.ru and gmail.com). Default Archlinux config does not contain this option (even commented) and upgrading users will suffer from inability to connect to remote servers. It's a regression, not a feature.

looks fixed in 17.04:
# grep s2s_d ejabberd.yml
mod_s2s_dialback: {}
