I have KDE 3.4 installed with the latest Kopete 0.10 version but noticed since Friday I can't log in to MSN through Kopete as it keeps asking for my password. I've verified on another workstation that's using Windows running MSN Messenger that my password is correct and I can even log in to Hotmail but not with Kopete. Does anyone know if Microsoft has changed either the MSN protocol or MSN server?

That's what the whole of this topic has been about :-)

Basically, you're going to need to compile a new version of Kopete to sort out what MSN did last week. There are instructions on how to do this earlier in the thread.

Why would I need to compile a new version of Kopete when I already stated in my previous post I'm using the latest version? This was downloaded precompiled by Novell through their YaST Source Mirror which included Kopete 0.10. I recently installed aMSN 0.94 and no issue with logging into MSN. I also didn't have to resort to compiling from source code myself. Not that I can't compile from source code I just find it time consuming and iritating since I'm not a programmer.

Dark Knight - you say you are using the latest version, but also that it stopped working on Friday.

So you were using it before Friday.

So it can't be the latest version, which has just been updated to deal with Microsoft's latest changes.

Sheesh.

Have you read the rest of this topic, or did you just jump in with both feet, ignoring everyone else?

Fixed for Debian users

FYI:

For those using Debian sid, it looks like the problem has been fixed with the latest kdenetwork packages, versioned 3.3.2-4. From the changelog:

Quoted


kdenetwork (4:3.3.2-4) unstable; urgency=high
.
* Urgency high for sarge targetted fixes of bugs at severity important.
.
+++ Changes by Adeodato Simó:
.
* Kopete is now able again to log into MSN Messenger accounts, after the
latest change in the Microsoft servers yesterday. (Closes: #309745)
Backported patch from upstream 3.4 SVN branch that introduces a new login
handler stolen from KMess. Enabled nofinal for kopete/protocols/msn, since
otherwise it won't compile.
.
* As a result of the above new login handler, Kopete is now able to log into
MSN Messenger accounts with Hotmail or MSN addresses that have a non-.com
TLD (e.g., hotmail.co.uk), which closes: #306845. (The patch at upstream
bug #96304 is now obsolete.)


For those using the KDE 3.4 debs from Alioth, I've also noticed that the updated Kopete package (3.4.0-0pre2) lets me connect to MSN again.
Running Debian Sid (unstable) w/KDE 3.5.8
Registered KDE user: #946

After updating to the latest version Kopete v0.10 via YaST Source Mirror package "kdenetwork-InternetMessenger" I haven't been able to log in to MSN Hotmail with Kopete. Kopete keeps asking for my password and as myself and others have already pointed out verified is correct as it works with other chat messengers (MSN Messenger on Windows, aMSN Messenger on Linux/OSX) as well when logging in to Hotmail directly from Firefox. I realize people are saying simply install the SVN version but I prefer a stable release not one that should be classified as Alpha, Beta or RC.

As for compiling being a simple process in most cases it's not seen as this due to consumers typically don't have the time, patience or know how to properly compile software. As I've clearly stated I, like a lot of Linux users are not programmers and as such we don't like to play around with code. Great for the programmer in the lab but not for the typical consumer who wants simplicity in installing software. That's why developers create package managers such as YaST in a friendly GUI. We should remember that just because a home user or person in the enterprise uses a Linux distribution it shouldn't mean that they need to do everything from the command line such as compiling software.

Kopete SVN : proxy problem...

Hello,

Like everyone using MSN in Kopete, I had problems. So I've installed Kopete from SVN and now, I can connect to MSN. But since I've installed this version, Kopete and Kmail do not use the proxy setting I've set in Konqueror.

It's very annoying because when I'm at school, I have to use a proxy and I can't retrive my e-mails anymore.

I've tried to remove Kopete and to re-install Kmail/Kdenetworkbut it still don't use my proxy settings.

Can someone help me ?

Thanks.

tried the snv and make fails

I followed the instructions as posted earlier and it worked right down to the make. When I type in make and hit enter I get this...

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.


I am using SuSe 9.2 and KDE 3.4 can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

I really want to get this updated and working again.

We should remember that just because a home user or person in the enterprise uses a Linux distribution it shouldn't mean that they need to do everything from the command line such as compiling software.


Yeah, but we also need to remember that someone somewhere has to create the necessary packages for the package managers to handle. That takes time, people with the appropriate knowledge and tools, and people running the appropriate distro in each case. The price of there being a great deal of choice in Linux is that you can't provide one package which will fit every system.

If MSN decide to change their systems, forcing the programmers of software like Kopete to make urgent changes to their software, you're asking a lot to have not only the Kopete programmers working on those changes, but also every distro provider working on producing updated packages. If you're going to insist that they are stable rather than development packages too, then the distro managers have to wait until something is stable - and that's not immediate.

Bottom line: you can have it quickly, or you can have it produced in a package for your distro. Having both is a problem.

FWIW, my son's girlfriend, new to Linux, and advised only by email (since she's 50 miles away) has the latest Kopete up & running and logging in. It can be done, even by the very inexperienced.

That said, I must agree it's not ideal. (Nor is entering a forum days after someone started it, ignoring every post to date, and re-launching a discussion!) Perhaps someone could write a simple GUI-based utility to sort out directories, and do the .config / make / make install (asking for root password at the appropriate moment) - it might take a lot of the beginners' panic out of these things!

Dark_Knight: Just for the record, you don't have to be a programmer to compile (or even patch) software :D It would take you minutes to learn how to do this, in fact in most cases, it's a matter of issuing 3 commands. If you refuse to be bothered with learning, then you really are forced to take what you are given. I'm no programmer and I use gentoo, so I've compiled everything that I have :)

You're also cheating yourself out of a BIG advantage to using linux if you stay away from the console. It's amazing the tasks you accomplish with a few simple lines of bash.

This is all IMO kinda stuff.. Not trying to start a war. I just think a big part of linux is compiling software.. using the latest contributions from the community.. but, that might be gentoo fanboyism creeping in :D

kopete-0.10.1 does not compile

I've downloaded the tarball kopete-0.10.1.tar.bz2 but it does not compile
I've fixed some stupid syntax problems in the doc files wich prevent the make to complete but the compilation of kopetelistviewsearchline.cpp fails complaining that
klistviewsearchline.h is missing.

I'm running kde 3.2.3

what I would like to have is a simple patch to apply to my current kopete 0.9.2 to fix the MSN problem.
BTW : today gaim seems also unable to connect to MSN.

:-(

Sorry to be annoying.

when I run ./configure

I get the error
checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.3) (headers and libraries) not found. Please check your installation!
For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log.


I have qt 3.3 installed.

I know it's going to be something stupid I'm doing, but please help.. I need MSN working as my family depend on it.. (God I sound hard-up! :-) )

I get this at the end of config.log
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" void std::exit (int) throw (); using std::exit;

configure: exit 1

You also need the -devel packages to compile anything. In this case you should install qt-devel (or whatever it is called in your distribution).


But, I think that it would be easier to install the new KDE 3.4.1 that has the updated Kopete.
