Category: win32 Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Submitted By: joerg kunsmann (jkuns) Assigned to: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Summary: gaim1.4.0 seems not to load any plugin Initial Comment: Hi, I'm running a fresh copy of gaim 1.4.0 (the "with gtk"-Package) on WinXP. When starting Gaim I recieve the "Add Account"-Window, but no protocol is listed in the dropdown (don't have the problem with gaim1.0.0). There plugin section in the Options-Dialog is also empty; but the "plugins"-Folder is filled with dll's like in the old Versions. Any help would be appreciated, Joerg ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: joerg kunsmann (jkuns) Date: 2005-08-21 20:57 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=802961 Hi Daniel, I can confirm your thoughts, when installing gaim in c:\programme\gaim\ I don't encounter any problems. gaim is behaving as in former times ;-) I really apreciated your help, Jörg ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Date: 2005-08-21 20:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325843 I think figured out what the problem is. Current versions of WinGaim have problems running from a path containing non-ASCII characters. (The problem has since been fixed). In the mean time, you can avoid this problem by installing gaim to a directory containing only ASCII characters. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Date: 2005-08-19 15:06 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325843 C:\Programme\Zubehör\CommunicationTools\Gaim\plugins exists and contains all the various dlls? Gaim isn't even trying to load the plugins from that dir, which indicates that either it can't read it, or it doesn't exist. Also, there are errors loading the various stock icons from C:\Programme\Zubehör\CommunicationTools\Gaim\pixmaps\gaim\buttons so that indicates that there is something weird about that path (or it is missing stuff). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: joerg kunsmann (jkuns) Date: 2005-08-19 14:30 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=802961 Hi datallah, thanks for your response. here is the file you requested.

(like this: gaim -d > debug.log) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=200235&aid=1256696&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Gaim-support mailing list Gaim-support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gaim-support
