Description Travis 2010-02-13 17:30:31 UTC
Version:           4.4.0 (using KDE 4.4.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Archlinux Packages

Arch Linux x86_64 version
KDE SC 4.4.0
Kopete Version 1.0.0 (Using KDE Development Platform 4.4.00 (KDE 4.4.0)

There seems to be an issue with the Yahoo Messenger plugin. When using Kopete with my yahoo messenger ID online, I am able to receive messages from contacts but conntacts are not able to receive messages from me.

To check this error, my wife is using her laptop and I my desktop. She is using pidgin and I am using Kopete...

1.) I show up online on wife's messenger. She shows up online on mine.

2.) Her messenger does not show my status message.

3.) She can send me messages which I receive just fine.

4.) I try to send her a message and it registers as going through on my end but she does not receive it.

5.) Furthermore, none of my contacts using yahoo messenger can receive messages from me but I can from them. This is made evident by the fact that they respond several times with a 'hello?' like response wondering why I am not responding back to them when in fact I am. It should be noted that my contacts are primarily windows users using the offical Yahoo messenger or the Pidgin messenger.

6.) Other messenger protocols seem to work. i.e., I can text my wife's cell phone with AIM in kopete and she will receive that.
Comment 1 Andrei Slavoiu 2010-02-14 16:16:21 UTC
I can confirm this behaviour with Kopete 4.4.0 under Arch Linux (i686) and over Gentoo (amd64) as well, so it doesn't seem distribution specific.
Comment 2 Travis 2010-02-15 19:49:29 UTC
Greetings,

With the latest update to kde-base that took place when I updated my packages, this issue seems resolved. Is it resolved with you as well Andrei? ANy word on this 'bug'?
Comment 3 Travis 2010-02-17 17:17:44 UTC
Greetings,

This issue is present again. 

I am not sure what is going on, but for a brief time on the 15th I was able to use kopete to communicate with my yahoo contacts. Today I was not able to, experiencing the same issues that I had reported earlier with this bug report.

Comment 6 Dario Andres 2010-02-25 13:08:27 UTC
From bug 228410:
--
I just upgraded to KDE 4.4 from my distribution (Fedora). With this version,
Kopete with Yahoo Messenger protocol cannot send message. I tested in two ways. 
1. two different computers, computer A runs Fedora 12 with KDE 4.4, computer B
runs Windows XP with official YM client from Yahoo! Each has separate yahoo
account.
2. The same computers, 1 account login from Kopete, a yet different account
from Yahoo Messenger web.

On those two test cases, the following happen. Kopete client can receive
message from either Yahoo! client or Yahoo Web Messenger. But when Kopete send
message, it was never receive by the other client.

Comment 10 Travis 2010-02-26 21:16:11 UTC
Greetings,

That bug and this bug are not the same. That bug delt with constantly being disconnected from yahoo services, this bug you are connected but messages you send to other yahoo clients are not received by them (however it looks like to you that they were sent since no indication is given otherwise).

I do think that the disconnect bug is simply yahoo services sending out signals to see if you are using their offical client, and if not you get disconnected, but I could be wrong on that. Either way, I wouldn't mind the occasional disconnect/reconnect issue if I could use yahoo in kopete and my contacts could actually get the messages I send. Until that issue is fixed I have to use pidgin, which is fine and all but being a purist I rather use all kde apps (or as much as possible) in a kde environment. I do look forward to this issue being fixed and having the fix move downstream to us users, and continue to applaud the kopete developers for their hard work.
Comment 11 Vikas Kumar 2010-03-02 03:47:03 UTC
I can confirm this. This is happening after i upgraded to kde-4.4.0.
Details:
Kopete
Version 1.0.0

Comment 12 Robert Voinea 2010-03-02 09:33:38 UTC
Using 4.4.0 (gentoo and kubuntu).
Messages are definitely getting lost.
But the funny part is that kopete is sending something to yahoo, although some
of the messages are status messages with status = offline and after these the
real text message.
Could it be that any message sent after status = offline is ignored by yahoo?

(Tested with wireshark)

Comment 17 Toby Stevenson 2010-03-08 22:14:47 UTC
I also confirm this using Sabayon Linux KDE 4.4.1. I replaced my /usr/lib/libkyahoo-1.0.0 with the one provided by Yahya Mohajer and fixed the problem. Thanks.
Comment 18 Kevin Christmas 2010-03-09 01:40:25 UTC
The same trick works with Kubuntu.  I took libkyahoo.so.1.0.0 from KDE 4.3.5 found in Karmic Backports, http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic-backports/kde/kopete , and copied it over the one bundled with 4.4.1.

After copying the library over, my wife was able to receive my messages.
Comment 19 Reuben Budiardja 2010-03-09 17:43:05 UTC
Similar trick with Fedora 12 64-bit, which currently ships with KDE 4.4.0. For the benefit of anyone happen to look here, I did:

yumdownloader kdenetwork-libs-4.3.2-4.fc12.x86_64
rpm2cpio kdenetwork-libs-4.3.2-4.fc12.x86_64.rpm | cpio -idmv
cp usr/lib64/libkyahoo.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib64 (as root)

and now yahoo protocol with Kopete can send message.

So it seems that something change in this library that cause this regression.
Comment 20 Rahul Jain 2010-03-16 10:39:06 UTC
Can we have an official response as to whether this will be taken care of in time for KDE 4.4.2?

Comment 23 Robert Voinea 2010-03-25 13:27:58 UTC
Actually... the text message is sent to the yahoo server BUT it is preceded by a "status = offline" packet.
I guess the yahoo server ignores any message received after status = offline.

I have tested this using ethereal.

> Could you show me the "status = offline" packet from wireshark?

Attached. I also attached wireshark captures for pidgin. Pidgin has "Message (status=Offline)" in wireshark's protocol info column and it works. Kopete has "Notify (status=Notify)   Message (status=Offline)" and it doesnot work.

I've attached text exports. Let me know if you need binary output which will have more details. I's not sure if it adds and private information.

Thanks.
Comment 30 Roman Jarosz 2010-03-29 22:01:06 UTC
The problem isn't "Notify (status=Notify)   Message (status=Offline)" because it works here, could you send the whole wireshark log to my mail, thanks.
Comment 31 Iker salmón 2010-03-30 02:15:55 UTC
I have more information about this bug.

Debian testing/sid/experimental/qt-experimental-snapshot

I'am trying kde 4.4.2 and the trouble with kopete seems to still be there, but not in my account.  Mi girlfriend could not send messages like you describe in this bug (she could send but the mesagges lost and never be received).

  Whe have the same installation with the same apt-pinning, (same versions, programs, etc..)   but i did not have that bug, so I try configuring her account in my computer and viceversa.

I finally discover  this.

account@yahoo.com ----> doesn't work properly (her account)
account@yahoo.es  ----> works properly (my account)

Just to confirm, downloading kopete to 4.3.* works for her, but y still have working well kopete 4.4.* with  the spanish yahoo acount. (yahoo.es)



I hope this can give a clue to find the origin of the bug.

Excuse my poor english, :)

Iker.
Comment 32 Ryan G 2010-04-01 16:58:38 UTC
I am having the same issue.

Kopete 1.0.0
KDE SC - 4.4.2
Gentoo

I compiled 4.3.5 (using same switches) and took the libkyahoo.so.1.0.0 and copied it over, yahoo contacts are now receiving my messages.

If I can provide anything else, or be of any other assistance, let me know.

Comment 36 Roman Jarosz 2010-04-03 01:30:07 UTC
Iker, Vikas thanks for the logs, from the logs I see that the server doesn't ACK any packets so IMHO the problem starts earlier. Could you send me the login wireshark log (for account which cannot send messages), thanks.
Comment 37 Iker salmón 2010-04-03 01:51:07 UTC
done, i've send two files because i am still confused why works with one account and not with the other one.
Comment 38 Roman Jarosz 2010-04-03 12:50:45 UTC
Hi, probably nobody here has some broken yahoo test account which I could use to fix this bug?

Iker: thanks for the logs, unfortunately I still don't know what's wrong, could I ask you to take two more logs, both with the broken yahoo.com but one from broken Kopete and the second one from Kopete from KDE 4.3 (log with login and one message send), thanks.
Comment 39 Iker salmón 2010-04-03 13:07:57 UTC
(In reply to comment #38)
I am sorry, but my broken account is not mine, it's my girlfriend's account, and if I try to open new account it always is yahoo.es instead of yahoo.com, I guess I could try to open a new account using tor and privoxy and see if i can get a broken account, but for now i'll send you in about 5 minutes the logs you asked for.
Comment 40 Iker salmón 2010-04-03 13:52:43 UTC
ok, i have sent you the logs. And i also created a new yahoo.com account. 

  I am getting a little bit crazy with so many accounts configured in my kopete.  
and i am not sure if it is working or not.  i am making some tests
Comment 41 Roman Jarosz 2010-04-03 14:49:53 UTC
Iker thanks for the logs.

IMHO the problem is caused by stealth feature (which was introduced in KDE 4.4) and the problem may occure only when there are many contacts in contact list. I'll make a patch/lib with disabled stealt feature.

That sounds correct in my case.  My broken account has a lot of contacts and my working one just a few.

Thanks, great work!

Sounds correct for me too. My working test account has only one contact (the primary one). And my broken primary account has many contacts.

Comment 48 Iker salmón 2010-04-03 16:02:36 UTC
I am very sorry and a little bit shamed because i can't find a way to try it in debian.  The packages are still in development and i think that in the repositories snapshot-experimental there are not source packages aviable.

I tried by subversión but i am doing something wrong.  I guess the patch is working well also but i cannot confirm yet.  I have asked for help in debian qt-kde mailing list and let see if someone can help me discovering how to get the sources of the debian packages.

Anyway, thanks for your work.

I don't underestand this second patch, is it to correct the same issue without aplying the other patch? or do we have to aply both?

No, you only have to apply the second patch, it's the correct fix because it fixes the stealth feature.

Comment 60 dennyhalim.com 2010-04-09 08:11:39 UTC
the patch https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=226699#c45
does not work for me.

i'm on latest archlinux, kopete 1.0.0, kde 4.4.2
Comment 61 Dario Andres 2010-04-09 14:24:13 UTC
@dennyhalim.com: use the patch in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=226699#c50 ... the file in comment 45 is a library with a previous patch applied... (and which only works for the 64bits version; and probably only in some distros..)
Comment 62 dennyhalim.com 2010-04-09 16:01:48 UTC
yes mine is 64bit.
wonder why it's not working for me?

There could be other incompatibilities as it is a binary object.. I suggest you to try the patch (or/and suggest it to the Arch packagers..)
Comment 64 Travis 2010-04-11 15:15:16 UTC
Greetings,

I would like to state that it now works on my end. I am now able to send messages to my yahoo contacts and they receive them. This is the latest release of KDE 4.2.2, on Arch Linux x32.

Special thanks to all who has worked to fix this and all who helped to report this bug!
Comment 65 dennyhalim.com 2010-04-12 03:28:08 UTC

Comment 68 Giuseppe Calà 2010-04-16 19:00:58 UTC
Hi, a fiend of mine has the same problem but with msn account; I can't see his links (when they start with http). Now the patch in this discussion regards only yahoo protocol or with some changes can be valid for msn protocol?
Comment 69 Dario Andres 2010-04-16 23:06:58 UTC
@Giuseppe Calà: this issue and the patch are only related to the Yahoo protocol. You could report your issue on a separate bug report, however, note that is well known that the Microsoft MSN servers blocks some links in IM.
Regards

Comment 72 Craig Magina 2010-05-24 17:11:06 UTC
I can confirm this is fixed in 4.4.3.  I am running Kubuntu 10.04 amd64 with KDE 4.4.3 installed from the kubuntu ppa and I am able to communicate with people via Yahoo again.  Thanks!
Comment 73 Ovidiu D. Niţan 2011-11-21 19:23:42 UTC
This bug occurs again in Kopete 1.1.3 (on KDE 4.7.3, Arch Linux). The symptoms are the same: I can receive messages, but I can't send (the receiver doesn't receive them). The issue doesn't occurs immediately, but after some time of using the application.

Any help?
