Re: [Fwd: Pidgin not connecting to Yahoo IM]

Update to Pidgin 2.5.7, and make sure you update both Pidgin and Libpurple.
Also, the pager server you use should be scsa.msg.yahoo.com

 Hello

 I am running Pidgin 2.4.1 on Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 LTS
 I used to be able to access chat for both MSN  Yahoo
 But for some reason now I cannot access Yahoo in Pidgin in Linux but can in
 Yahoo Messaging client in MSWindows

 Would anyone know what might have changed ?
 I have tried removing the Yahoo account in Pidgin  re-adding.I can see
 the account but it is greyed out now
 I have also removed Pidgin altogether from Linux  re-installed but still
 no luck

 Help

 regards
 Rodger

 Hello,

 change the Pager Server (in the Advanced options by your Yahoo account)
 to cs101.msg.mud.yahoo.com.

Changing the pager host was a temporary solution at best.  It is likely
Yahoo eventually got around to disabling all servers providing access to
the old login method.

In the end, upgrading Pidgin to version 2.5.7 or getting a version
backported with the fixes from your package provider is the only way to
fix this issue.

http://pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/ provides directions for obtaining
updated Pidgin packages for Ubuntu releases.
