Category: win32 Group: None >Status: Closed Priority: 5 Submitted By: beckysue (beckysue) >Assigned to: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Summary: writing error for msn Initial Comment: I'd been using gaim 1.50 and had updated the gtk so it was current. I set up a new account in msn. I can log on to the msn account via hotmail so the ID and pw work fine. When I use the same id and pw in gaim, it begins the handshaking then the login fails with a 'writing error'. I went back and downloaded the gaim+debug version and installed it. Same thing happens. Have a missed something? becky ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Date: 2006-08-10 19:06 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325843 The fact that gaim doesn't work with GTK+ 2.8.x is known and mentioned on the wingaim page: http://gaim.sf.net/win32 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: beckysue (beckysue) Date: 2006-08-10 19:02 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1113491 okay... it is failing with gtk 2.8.18 I'm installing the 2.6.9 rev a version of gtk now. Okay... that works. So the current download with the older gtk lets me log into msn. However, if i use an updated gtk (2.8.18) it causes the msn login to fail. since I need gaim more than the other app, I've reverted back to the older version of gtk. Thanks for the help. becky ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: beckysue (beckysue) Date: 2006-08-10 18:34 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1113491 I just downloaded gaim 1.5.0 + gtk again, and it is the same size as the executable I already installed last week (before the debug). I'm using the gtk that comes with that distribution. I'll install it again this evening and see if it changes anything. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: beckysue (beckysue) Date: 2006-08-10 18:29 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1113491 gtk 2.0 is installed. I just used the download with the debug option for non-beta gaim. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Date: 2006-08-10 10:09 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325843 Is this on Windows? In which case, when you updated GTK+, did you install a 2.8.x version? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: beckysue (beckysue) Date: 2006-08-08 21:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1113491 No sir, nothing abnormal in the password. password has 7 letters (all lowercase) followed by 2 numbers no embedded blanks, special characters, underscores, hyphens, or capitals are used in the password. My brother is using hotmail and the 2.0 beta version and says he isn't having any problem. we both are using winxp and have the same level of updates. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2006-08-07 13:51 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 does this password have a non-ascii character? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=200235&aid=1536121&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
