Description Unknown 2009-02-20 23:20:00 UTC
Version:           0.70.0 (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

It is connecting fine to Yahoo! id, but not to gtalk id !!

I tried all the suggestions given in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=883819, like installing qca-tls libqca2-plugin-ossl, changing server to "gmail.com", "google.com", ports 5222, 5223, 443, SSL and no SSL, and all combinations, but still it is not connecting. It doesn't show any error message also !!!

Could you please help me in getting it to connect to my gmail id?

Thanks a lot...

Well, if you have installed all the plugins properly, (qca-tls, and qca2) the only mistake I can see offhand is that the server should actually be:

"talk.google.com" not "gmail.com" or "google.com", port should be 5223, with "SSL", and allow "plain text authentication" checked.

Further, your username should be your full emailaddress "xyz@gmail.com".

If you have followed all these steps. Please respond with more information such as any output when running kopete from the konsole, or a backtrace if possible.

"talk.google.com" fixed the it.. Thanks a lot...

But the default server entry listed in the Connection tab of Account settings page is "gmail.com" which was kind of confusing. It should be "talk.google.com" for gtalk ids !!

I had the same problem. Tejas Dinkar's advice above fixed it. 

Apparently the problem is that Kopete uses wrong settings by default when you add a Gmail account. It should use "talk.google.com" and 5223 and SSL (as Tejas Dinkar said) by default when adding a Gmail account. 

This counts as a Kopete bug in my book.

Hi
This is not invalid , but you can call it a bug in adding wizard 

Long time for fixing this problem by training & training without any good result , just I give up after around 6 months , I coming here to make it as a bug.

this info. was fix it , so, kopete must fix add account wizard for google talk to make default as above (ssl, talk.google.com)

please fix default settings of gmail accounts 

Thanks all

I have the same problem and it certainly IS a bug. An application should never CRASH -- if the user-supplied settings are incorrect (talk.google.com vs. gmail.com, for example), then the nice GUI message should inform them of it...
