 Posted: Fri Jun 11, 2004 4:03 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] Yahoo protocol in Kopete does not connect at all |
 |
|
I have used Kopete (MSN, ICQ, Jabber) for a couple of years now, first as a standalone app, now in KDE.
Recently I have added my Yahoo account too. Point is it refuses to work: it simply doesn't do anything. The icon remains grayed, no matter what I do. It doesn't even seem to try to connect.
I am sure the login and password are valid (just tried to login on http://messenger.yahoo.com/ and that worked) and I have tried to start kopete from konsole to see if there was any debug info. But nothing particular for the yahoo plugin I think:
| Code: |
MNG error 1029: Chunk out of sequence; chunk TERM; subcode 0:0
MNG error 1029: Chunk out of sequence; chunk TERM; subcode 0:0
[repeated a couple of times]
MNG error 1029: Chunk out of sequence; chunk TERM; subcode 0:0
QGArray::find: Index 0 out of range
MNG error 1029: Chunk out of sequence; chunk TERM; subcode 0:0
|
I have also searched with those 2 messages, but no luck. They seem related to MSN, but MSN works nevertheless. I tried it on two computers (P4 and AMD XP, both running KDE), they show similar behavior.
Does anyone have a similar problem with Yahoo in Kopete or even better: a solution?

| Yahoo had a change of protocol sometime back but the recent kopete (kde version 3.2.2) works quite well. You may want to upgrade to this version. |

You might want to try upgrading to KDE 3.3 Alpha 1 and see if your bug is fixed there. The only error that I know of that keeps people from logging on is one that kopete didn't support (because I didn't know about it) until now. It has to do with invalid user name. It might be worth a shot.

It adds a yahoo patch and fixes it. |

just to close this thread: the problem was that I entered my account info wrong. I always took it like: 'account@yahoo.com', but instead it should just have been 'account' without the @yahoo.com addition.
After that it just worked!!! 
Maybe it woul be a good idea to have kopete give some feedback bout the wanted format of the sign-in name. |
