Description Arnaud Arzuffi 2003-09-11 13:37:12 UTC

Version:           0.7.2 (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          GCC 2.95.4 
OS:          Linux

I just installed kopete 0.7.2 in order to avoid the MSN Messenger obsolescence message, and when I select "connect all" (I only have 1 account : MSN Messenger), kopete displays the following message : "connection failed. try again later", and when I click on "OK", it crashes !

Loaded plugins : MSN Messenger, connection status, history (and keeping only MSN Messenger plugin results also in this crash.

Comment 1 Stephan Kulow 2003-09-11 13:45:36 UTC

you really should update your KDE

Comment 2 Olivier Goffart 2003-09-11 14:19:50 UTC

If the crash is maybe duplicate of this bug. The conneciton failed is certenly 
not. 
 
What i need to see is the debug ouput on the console. only few last lines, 
when you are disconnected are interesting. 
 
Maybe it's somewat related tyo your linux version. (or other)

Comment 3 Andy Goossens 2003-09-11 15:44:00 UTC

Which KDE version is this? By any chance KDE 3.1.0?

This is a --disable-debug build (see the backtrace), so there won't be any 
debug output unfortunately.

To the submitter: if you can, please recompile with --enable-debug=full.

Comment 5 Arnaud Arzuffi 2003-09-11 19:18:02 UTC

Sorry for the KDE 3.1.0 installation, it is not my personal computer ; I
installed  kopete 0.7.2 on my account at the university ! and they don't often
upgrade :(

I will install kopete 0.7.2 on my personal computer (updated Mandrake Linux 9.1
with KDE 3.1.3) Saturday... Hoping it will work :)

Comment 6 Andy Goossens 2003-09-11 21:53:20 UTC

It wouldn't surprise me that the MSN server might reject stuff like 
"2.4.20transtec2600-cremi-i686-smp". They expect a version format with dots, 
like: "3.14" 
 
Olivier: I told you to use "KDE" and the KDE version instead :-p

Comment 7 Olivier Goffart 2003-09-12 00:07:50 UTC

The bug has been fixed in CVS, thanks for your report. 
now, you have following solution: 
1)use the CVS (stable branch if you want) (look at kopete.kde.org for 
instructions) 
2)downgrade kopete to kopete 0.7.1   
3)edit ~/.kde/share/config/kopeterc and add that line in the [MSN] section: 
UserAgent=0x0409 winnt 5.1 i386 MSNMSGR 5.0.0 MSMSGS

Comment 8 Andy Goossens 2003-09-12 01:18:58 UTC

just to give more possible solutions... 
 
4)upgrade KDE 
5)wait till version 0.7.3 (not planned, but might always happen...) 
 
 
Solution 3 is the most simple one.

Comment 9 Arnaud Arzuffi 2003-09-12 16:19:55 UTC

yes ! I chose the 3 and IT WORKS ! thanks :)

remark : this evening or tomorrow, I will test kopete 0.7.2 on my personal
computer, with my beautiful KDE 3.1.3... keeping you informed !

Comment 10 Rodrigo 2003-10-20 19:17:03 UTC

I had the same problem. I tried the suggested solution of editing ~/.kde/share/config/kopeterc to include the line "UserAgent=0x0409 winnt 5.1 i386 MSNMSGR 5.0.0 MSMSGS" in the [MSN] section and it did not work!

Comment 11 Arnaud Arzuffi 2003-10-21 13:35:43 UTC

It worked for me... is there an error message displayed ? and could you attach the COMPLETE console output when you launch kopete from the console ? What is your configuration : is kopete installed many times on your system (/usr and /usr/local for example), which one is launched ?
