[Bug 1377668] Re: pidgin cannot login to XMPP service ("Not authorized")

 

I am sorry, the server mentioned doesn't exist any more. However, I
think improvements in logging - especially in the case of an failure -
shall be done anyway.

Title:
  pidgin cannot login to XMPP service ("Not authorized")

Status in pidgin package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Observed behaviour: I installed a XMPP server (ejabberd) on a machine
  running Ubuntu 12.04. The service can be used on my Android phone
  using "Xabber" without any problems, via the mobile phone network as
  well as in my WLAN. On other machines (my PC running Xubuntu 12.04 or
  my notebook running Xubutu 14.10 Beta) using Pidgin, I always get a
  "Not authorized" error message at login. "sendxmpp" works both on my
  PC and on my notebook. Adding SRV records for _xmpp-client and _xmpp-
  server did not help, also adding "fqdn{domain}" to the config file
  didn't.

  Expected behaviour: Pidgin should be able to login to a XMPP server
  without an erorr message. If there's an error, it should clearly point
  out the problem and not just write that something went wrong and give
  me no idea what I could do to solve the problem.
