Description Jakub Suder 2005-02-17 20:16:49 UTC
Version:           0.9.91 (CVS from 31.01) (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.3.5 
OS:                Linux

I think there's a problem with history plugin. It is enabled by default, but 
it doesn't work - it doesn't log anything and the clock icon isn't visible in 
the menus. It starts working only when I go to plugin preferences and tell it 
to show several messages from the last chat in chat window. It still works 
when I deselect that. But until I check that checkbox for the first time, 
nothing gets logged.

To reproduce:
- run kopete on a fresh account, no kopete files in $HOME/.kde
- create an account and start talking to somebody
- no logs are created, although in settings->configure plugins history is enabled
- now check "show chat history in new chats"
- after that, history starts working

I'm running into this too -- the 'logs' directory wasn't started when I first ran kopete.  Debian Sarge 2005-Feb-18, kopete 0.9.2.

Thanks for the workaround.

This is probably a problem in  KPluginSelector

Strange enough, 2.5 years later on Kubuntu 7.10 I have the same Problem (Kopete 0.12.7, KDE 3.5.8). Shouldn't this be fixed someday?

Can you try kopete on 3.5.10 or KDE 4? Do you still have this issue?

Some news?
