** Description changed: - Binary package hint: pidgin + WORKAROUND: + Change server to login.icq.com + (ssl - off, client login - off) + + --- Pidgin will no longer connect to ICQ. There are various existing bug reports about Pidgin not connecting to ICQ, but they all say something like "turn off SSL" or "turn on clientConnect" to work around it. It appears that none of these workarounds work any more. I have tried every combination of SSL and clientConnect, and Pidgin will not connect to ICQ with any of them: use SSL off, use clientLogin off: "unknown reason" use SSL on, use clientLogin off: "unknown reason" use SSL off, use clientLogin on: "received unespected response from https://api.oscar.aol.com/aim/startOSCARSession: Invalid requested host" use SSL on, use clientLogin on: "received unespected response from https://api.oscar.aol.com/aim/startOSCARSession: Invalid requested host" Turning SSL on or off seems to make no difference at all (why is Piding trying to connect using HTTPS when SSL is off???), turning clientLogin on or off just changes the error message. Please let me know how I can help debug this problem! Are there log files I can provide, debug loggin I can turn on, etc.? - - ProblemType: Bug - DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 - Package: pidgin 1:2.6.6-1ubuntu4.2 - ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-26.48-generic 2.6.32.24+drm33.11 - Uname: Linux 2.6.32-26-generic x86_64 - NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia - Architecture: amd64 - Date: Tue Nov 30 12:34:56 2010 - InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 9.10 "Karmic Koala" - Release amd64 (20091027) - SourcePackage: pidgin
