Category: win32 Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Ksoft (ksoftfusion) Assigned to: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Summary: Cannot connect to AIM sometimes, getting Socket Error 10038 Initial Comment: I'm running Gaim 2.0.0beta6, and I cannot connect to AIM sometimes. When it connects, it stops and says "-screenname- disconnected: Cannot connect to BOS server (Windows socket error #10038)" about half the time. The other half of the time it works perfectly fine and connects and I can use AIM normally. When this error comes up sometimes I can just click on the error, click the Connect button, and it'll work again. But sometimes it just gives me the error again. Repeated attempts to get it going just make it so I can't connect for ten minutes. I've Googled up and down the internet trying to see if there's a reason, but i can't figure it out. It's apparently trying to do a socket operation on a non-socket, but I don't know how to fix it. Also, for the record, I tried connecting multiple times to AIM using other clients (namely Trillian and Miranda IM) and they seem to work fine; I suspect it's a Gaim specific problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100235&aid=1662033&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
