[Bug 668660] Re: Under Ubuntu 10.10, Empathy 2.32.0.1 cannot sign into Yahoo messenger - Authentication failed.

2010-10-31 Thread sthompso
My apologies, it appears this was due to user-error.

For Yahoo messenger accounts, you must enter only the user-name, not the
full Yahoo ID.   e.g. For Yahoo ID usern...@yahoo.com, it should be
entered as only username in Empathy.

Although this convention is highlighted as the example within the
Empathy Account setup for a Yahoo account, it's a different convention
to what is used in the Yahoo web messenger, which requests the Yahoo ID
be entered as usern...@yahoo.com.


Thanks.

Binary package hint: empathy


Cannot sign into yahoo messenger account with Empathy 2.32.0.1 under Ubuntu 
10.10 x64.  Get the message Authentication failed, however using the same 
credentials works using the Yahoo Web Messenger.

Empathy was able to connect to Yahoo messenger before upgrading from
Ubuntu 10.04.

MSN messenger can connect successfully.
