GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 586329
Imported Google account (from Pidgin) not connecting
Last modified: 2009-06-20 11:08:58 UTC
Please describe the problem: Gtalk account imported from Pidgin using the account importer -- opening Empathy returns a jabber network error message. I tried creating a new Gtalk account in empathy -- it connects without an issue. Compared to the account auto imported from Pidgin, the account that empathy created when I selected google talk had these differences: Server: talk.google.com port: 5223 checked: ignore ssl certificate errors checked: use old SSL the account imported from pidgin has: checked: encryption requried (TLS/SSL) server: blank port: 5222 If i add the server name (talk.google.com) to the imported gtalk account from pidgin, I am able to connect, with all other settings intact: checked: encryption requried (TLS/SSL) server: talk.google.com port: 5222 Steps to reproduce: 1. Open Accounts dialog 2. Click import accounts 3. Select Google talk account 4. Try to connect Actual results: I get a jabber network error message. Expected results: Connected to Google account. Does this happen every time? Yes. Other information: Also tracked here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/388522
Can you try again with empathy master please? This should be fixed as of commit 9c1dfe2afbea.
Marking as fixed. Feel free to re-open if you disagree after testing with master. This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
