Yes I restarted the server. Tried to login in right away and waited a few minutes. Same result. I had this problem yesterday when I upgraded and found the answer about editing the openfire.xml file in this newsgroup. That fixed it yesterday and I got logged in. Stayed logged in most of the day trying to get the Sip Phone, Spark, and Ansterisk-IM to play nice. Never succeeded but that is a different story. Today I tried to login and work some more and can not get logged in. I just tried it again and same thing. This is in the error log:
