A few questions and remarks:
First of all, I don´t get the chat working. Not with the first version of the modul where the chat lies in the root folder of drupla nor with the second version where the chat is implemented in the modul. all I get is this: (Take a look at the attached file)

A blank, white window.
"installation and configuration"?
OK, to start from the beginning: After installation of the ajaxchat modul do I have to change the install path of the chat? If yes, why is it not per default "sites/all/modules/ajaxchat/chat" if the chat is implemented in the modul?
If no, why is there anything to set up?

Is there nothing more to do as you write in the "installation and configuration"?

What about the "installation" part from the readme file inside the chat folder? config.php, install.php a.s.o?

I´ve tried everything but no success.

Keep on going
Wolfgang

As you know, the module is in a heavy state of flux right now. My guess is that you may have some sort of code mismatch. I would recommend that you use git to clone the repository rather than use the release due to the delay in updating the package. Instructions are under the version control tab. Also, be sure you are both deactivating and uninstalling the current module prior to updating. I have tested the module just this morning from a fresh git clone and it works well for me.

You might also review your webserver's error log and Drupal's recent log messages. A white screen almost always produces an entry in the log that would give you a better idea of what's happening.

You can also try to:

- Clear your cache: go to /config/development/performance => clear all cache
- Clear your browser cookies related to the Drupal site.
- Remove the old /chat directory from your Drupal root.

However, as cameronbprince said, please keep in mind that the module is fairly new and the dev branch should not be considered stable: it is subject to major changes.

OK, it´s working now.
Problem was that in settings, I typed in the path to the chat (sites/all/modules/ajaxchat/chat).

>>>This is the path to your Ajax Chat rooms, relative to the Drupal base path.<<<

This line is wrong if the chat is inside the module.

Anyway, good work!

Thanks for the feedback :)

That's right, the "relative to the Drupal base path" part of the description is wrong.

I would like this to be used as the name of chatrooms menu link, so that you can change the chat's url with it.

I will probably work on this next week.
