Category: win32 Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Submitted By: mrsandmann (mrsandmann) Assigned to: Mark Doliner (thekingant) Summary: GAIM gives message "Disconnected" Initial Comment: GAIM used to work fine, then, just randomly, it stopped. Every time i try to connect, it says "[username] disconencted: Disconnected." I can connect with AOL Instant Messenger, but not GAIM. Tried upgrading to new version, same problem. Tried beta, same problem. whats wrong??? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: mrsandmann (mrsandmann) Date: 2006-03-02 00:19 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1462468 ok..i feel like a fool. The problem was that i had mismatched GTK versions installed. The one that came with the windows binary wasnt the one that was installed. After uninstalling both gaim, and gtk, then reinstalling gaim beta, and using the gtk it comes with, it worked fine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Someone (laptop765) Date: 2006-03-01 14:36 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=680812 I had a similar situation, Gaim just randomly stopped working, but AIM worked fine. Other programs also slowly seemingly spontaneously stopped connecting to the internet. What I eventually found out was that although I had the Zonealarm [firewall] program closed, it was merely the frontend and the actual firewall itself was still running in the background. So I must have updated Gaim in some way and broke it, but without the frontend, I was unaware of the situation. Long story short: check firewall settings. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=200235&aid=1439382&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
