Description Chris Crisafulli 2009-08-21 20:57:54 UTC
Expected Behavior: Once you open empathy. Go to Accounts and create a Groupwise Messenger Account. After close the create accounts, you should be connected to Groupwise Messenger Server without any required further actions on the Users Part.

What Actually Occurs: The Groupwise Messenger account is created, but does not open/connect. If you go back to the accounts area you will see that the Groupwise Messenger account icon indicator is flashing, which alerts that there is an issue with the account not connecting properly.

Discovered Workaround: cp ~/.purple/certificates/x509/tls_peers/<gwmessenger_servername> /tmp/haze-<random_generated_per_session>/certificates/x509/tls_peers

It seems as though when a new empathy session is started, a new /tmp/-haze-<random_generated_per_session>/certificates/x509/tls_peers is created.

The groupwise session certificate needs to by copied from the ~/.purple/certificates/x509/tls_peers directory to the /tmp/haze- directory generated with the connection.

The Current version I am using is from the Ubuntu Daily PPA 2.27.5, but this has occurred in all of the earlier versions that I have tried. This is not limited to the packaged versions from Ubuntu as this occurs in OpenSuse 11 and Fedora too, at least in a virtual environment.

Please let me know if this isn't clear enough or more information is needed.

Thanks for your all of your time and effort with Empathy!

Thanks for your bug report but this is a telepathy-haze issue, not an Empathy one.

See http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17907 about Haze certificats issues.
