Some options can be specified for particular virtual host(s) only using \fIhost_config\fR or \fIappend_host_config\fR options\&. Such options are called \fIlocal\fR\&. Examples are \fImodules\fR, \fIauth_method\fR and \fIdefault_db\fR\&. The options that cannot be defined per virtual host are called \fIglobal\fR\&. Examples are \fIloglevel\fR, \fIcertfiles\fR and \fIlisten\fR\&. It is a configuration mistake to put \fIglobal\fR options under \fIhost_config\fR or \fIappend_host_config\fR section \- ejabberd will refuse to load such configuration\&.

It is not recommended to write ejabberd\&.yml from scratch\&. Instead it is better to start from "default" configuration file available at https://github\&.com/processone/ejabberd/blob/20\&.04/ejabberd\&.yml\&.example\&. Once you get ejabberd running you can start changing configuration options to meet your requirements\&.

Note that this document is intended to provide comprehensive description of all configuration options that can be consulted to understand the meaning of a particular option, its format and possible values\&.
