Description of problem: When trying to join a MUC, gajim refuses to connect with the "This is not a group chat" message. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gajim-0.14.3-1.fc15.noarch How reproducible: not sure, it works for some MUCs, and does not work for others (even from different F15 hosts to the same XMPP server). Moreover, I can see the problem only on a single private MUC, which I cannot open for testing purposes, sorry. It probably fails on MUCs which the user already has in his roster. Additional info: This is apparently an upstream bug #6906: https://trac.gajim.org/ticket/6906 I have been able to fix the problem the way comment #5 in the upstream report suggests: > I need to comment these lines in src/dialogs.py and src/gui_interface.py : > > # if gajim.contacts.get_contact(self.account, room_jid): > # ErrorDialog(_('This is not a group chat'), > # _('%s is not the name of a group chat.') % room_jid) > # return The later discussion and probably the upstream sources as well contain the proper fix.
I think I'll just update gajim to 0.15 when it's released. Meanwhile you can use a package from f16, it should run on f15 too: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=271920
I have tested gajim-0.15-0.1.beta2.fc16.noarch.rpm from koji, and the problem is still present there. The workaround mentioned above still works.
I reopened the upstream bug.
Upstream is not willing to change it and closed the bug. Don't put groupchats in the roster. https://trac.gajim.org/ticket/6906#comment:23
