Description Patrick 2004-09-21 23:04:58 UTC
Version:           0.9.0 (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

I occasionnally but consistently get an error message with the window title being "Network Protocol Problem - ICQ Plugin" and the content: "Your message for account <my_own_ICQ_account_number> did not get sent because the following error occured: Recipient is not logged in".

I get this error even (only?) if I haven't sent any message.
Comment 1 Ken Zalewski 2004-10-08 18:33:46 UTC
I am having the same problem as this user.  It is the single most annoying part of using Kopete.

To be specific, while Kopete is sitting idle, every so often a dialog box will open up.  It can happen multiple times, such that the dialogs will pile up over time.

It appears that the dialog opens at the moment that one of my contacts signs off the network, based on the sounds that I'm hearing.  It does not happen for all contacts though.

The dialog box has one "OK" button, and the following text:

Title bar:
Network Protocol Problem - ICQ Plugin

Text:
Your message for account <my ICQ id> did not get sent because the following error occurred: Recipient is not logged in


It is interesting that my own ICQ id is in the message, implying that I'm trying to send myself a message.  That's wrong on two counts: 1. I'm not sending myself a message, and 2. I'm obviously still signed on.

Any idea what causes this problem?
Comment 2 Matt Rogers 2004-10-08 20:06:55 UTC
> Any idea what causes this problem?

It's probably caused by the auto away message querying that we do. Can
you keep track of when people go idle or away and see if that's when the
box pops up? I'll try to track this down, but getting your confirmation
would be most useful, since I've never seen this message before.

Thanks.

Comment 3 Patrick 2004-10-12 02:06:26 UTC
Some more info to be confirmed.

I have a folder called "not used" where I put the contacts I don't care about anymore. This folder has standard notifications suppressed for the 3 online status changes available. When one contact in that folder goes away (away only or N/A and offline too?), the described issue occurs.

This bug should be marked as new, shouldn't it?
Comment 4 Matt Rogers 2004-10-15 02:28:34 UTC
it won't be marked new until i (or somebody else on the development team) can reproduce this
Comment 5 Matt Rogers 2004-10-20 18:30:53 UTC
Kopete's client detection should be able to tell you which client the other person is using. If you can tell the client that the contact uses, I should be able to reproduce this.

CVS commit by mattr: 

Merge the oscar_rewrite branch into HEAD. There are a ton of changes here
and while i'm not going to go over them one by one, here's a brief overview
of some of the things that have changed.

- Delayed contact creation. Contacts aren't created on the kopete list until
  we get a confirmation back from the server that they were added correctly.
 
- Timestamps of received offline messages are correct now (#45751)

- Hopefully, many many encoding problems with message receiving are fixed
  (#88033, #97116, #43701)

- Contacts that require authorization are now marked by a red 'X' over their
  icon. 

- Asking for and getting contact list authorization should be much more 
  user friendly.

- All the reported crashes (except for two dealing with ICQ RTF) are fixed

- Contact list handling in general should be more robust.

All in all, there are just a ton of changes and hopefully, your AIM and ICQ
experience within kopete should become more enjoyable.

Comment 7 Ken Zalewski 2005-03-17 17:04:05 UTC
I've been running Kopete 0.10 for about an hour now, and so far, I have not received any of the spurious "Recipient is not logged in" messages that plagued me in 0.9.4.

However, if I send a message to an offline contact, the message appears to be sent fine, with no dialog box indicating that the contact is offline.  (Should I file this as a separate bug report?)

Still, I will accept this behavior over the hundreds of spurious dialogs that would pop up while using the application previously.

Thanks for the fix.
Comment 8 Matt Rogers 2005-03-17 17:10:12 UTC
If you have an AIM account, there might be an error dialog that gets shown. I don't remember. If it's ICQ only, then there will be no error since you can send messages to offline ICQ users. If you want a message box shown when you send a message to an offline user telling you they're offline, then certainly file another wishlist for that. :)
