Description Ignat Semenov 2009-08-02 23:50:12 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.1 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

kdenetwork is rev 1004829
Incoming file transfer doesn't work for ICQ. On incoming transfer request, a button appears in chat window. After clicking Download button, a progress notification in system tray appears, but the meter shows zero percent of file downloaded and that doesn't change. Later, the transfer is canceled automatically, and the file isn't downloaded. Nevertheless, outgoing file transfers work fine.

me too, when i click on download, they write in console this :

 X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3
  Major opcode: 20 (X_GetProperty)
  Resource id:  0x28100dd

i have Kopete Version 0.70.90 Using KDE 4.3.00 (KDE 4.3.0)

Hi!

Using the AOL Proxy instead of the direct connection seems to solve the problem: http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/post/2134082/
Comment 3 mirmio 2009-09-10 22:22:48 UTC
It work for me now.
Here is how do it :
Settings -> Configure
Your ICQ Account -> Modify Account
Account Preferences -> 
check "Override defaul server information", and set :
Server/Port: login.icq.com 443
and below in "Direct Connect Option"
check "Use proxy instead"

Well, the AOL Proxy workaround does not work for me.

I'm running KDE 4.6.5 with Kopete 1.0.80 (Kubuntu 11.04)

Without the AOL proxy enabled, outgoing file transfers work fine, but incoming file transfers don't work at all.

If i enable the AOL proxy, neither outgoing nor incoming file transfers work.

I can confirm comment #4. It used to work for a little while some months ago, but ICQ seems to haved updated some stuff since then.
Interestingly enough, the Pidgin ICQ File Transfer (current Pidgin version from the Ubuntu 11.04 Repository) works flawlessly without setting up anything, neither proxy nor incoming ports, even behind a NAT. Perhaps you could adapt their code?

Kubuntu 11.04 32-bit with KDE 4.6.5 from the Kubuntu-PPA here, Kopete 1.0.80.
