Problems connecting to passworded Jabber conferences

[wilmer]

There's a passworded conference on a Jabber server I use that bitlbee can't seem to join. When I try to join, no new channel appears, but the backend has connected to the channel as I can see all the XML going by in xmlconsole. Joining a regular channel works fine and joining the channel works fine in Pidgin.

(Re-filing this because I accidentally removed the original bug report when cleaning up a $&^)*$#@$#*&%#@ shitload of spam this morning.)

So this bug report isn't very informative, I'm afraid. Can you give a (stripped) XML dump?

[James Curbo <jcurbo@…>]

Sure, what do you mean exactly? Copy and paste of xmlconsole output or something more specific?

[wilmer]

Hrmm, so I'm not sure why I wrote this. :-) I guess BitlBee somehow doesn't detect the successful join. Indeed an xmlconsole dump *would* be useful, can you send me one?

Sorry for getting back so late, spent some time outside the country/etc.

patch (against 1.2.3) to protocols/jabber/conference.c

I ran into the same thing. Turns out to be a line ordering issue -- the "password" tag must be the body of the "x" tag. The existing code had it as the body of the "presence" tag. Fix attached.

Actually, I already fixed this in bzr a few months ago, indeed the password wasn't put in the right place. The fix may be stuck on my workstation though, with code.bitlbee.org being dead. :-(

Yep, fixed in changeset:devel,447
