Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: win32 Group: 2.0.0 beta 6 >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: James Roper (jamesroper) Assigned to: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Summary: Default Buddy Icon Search does not respect Domain Initial Comment: In Windows, when you log into a computer through a domain for the first time, it creates a home directory for you at C:\Documents and Settings\<username>. If however that directory already exists, ie because a user with the same username but from a different domain has already logged in, it creates the home directory as C:\Documents and Settings\<username>.<DOMAIN>. Gaim seems to be determining the users home directory incorrectly when it tries to open the My Pictures directory when you try to select your own Buddy Icon, if the users home directory is C:\Documents and Settings\<username>.<DOMAIN>, it tries to open C:\Documents and settings\<username>\My Documents\My Pictures. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: SourceForge Robot (sf-robot) Date: 2007-02-27 19:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1312539 Originator: NO This Tracker item was closed automatically by the system.

After it has been looked up once, the last directory used will be the directory that is set when you browse. **This is what is happening to you because we never actually use the "My Pictures" directory - you would have had to browse there previously for it to be the current directory browsing for a buddy icon. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100235&aid=1658616&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
