Hey, it seems that the RPC connection breaks some times. I'll look into this and in the meantime you can add the EJABBERD_SKIP_MODULES_UPDATE environment variable to skip updating modules:

docker run -t -i -p 5222 -p 5269 -p 5280 -e "XMPP_DOMAIN=foo.com" -e "EJABBERD_SKIP_MODULES_UPDATE=true" rroemhild/ejabberd

If you want do update the modules specs you can try to do this after ejabberd is up:

docker exec CONTAINER ejabberdctl modules_update_specs

Thank you very much for the quick response. I even able to update the modules after a few tries once the container was up. Thank you very much.

I have the exactly same issue. I was able to start the ejabberd after adding EJABBERD_SKIP_MODULES_UPDATE=true. However, I'm keeping on receiving the same TIMEOUT error when run "ocker exec CONTAINER ejabberdctl modules_update_specs" after the container up.
