I have upgraded a few months ago to Ubuntu 8.10. Pidgin is version 2.5.2 Very often, the pidgin account says: "1 account was disabled because you signed on from another location:" (which is possible when I would turn on my other computer; however, it also happens when that computer is not turned on at all since the last time that I connected this Pidgin instance)
This happens to my MSN account, not the Yahoo, XMPP (for my Google account) or AIM. a When reading the reports above, it seems to me that the problem is intermittent with different account types. When I press manually "reconnect" (or whatever that button says), it reconnects. Thanks everybody for the reports. Is there any information that I could give that could help to solve the problem? Unfortunately, I am not skilled enough in programming or compiling, otherwise, I would be happy to help. If somebody can, I am happy to install a version of the reconnect-plug-in, that creates a log file for whenever an account goes off line. That way we could verifiy whether the reconnect-plug-in really detects the disconnection and take it from there. -- Pidgin's auto-reconnect does not always reconnect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/225505 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
