Hi Support, I am hoping you can help me. I had Pidgin on my machine a few months back but could never get it to work so I uninstalled it. Now though I have decided to give it another try.
However I still cannot get it to connect to my Facebook account. Even though I
have set it to no proxy within the accounts.xml file I can see settings for the
proxy setting:
<proxy>
<type>none</type>
<host>dublinsbs</host>
<port>8080</port>
<username>alchemysoftware\annmarie</username>
<password>W0rldR3cord</password>
</proxy>
Note the password which is stored in that file would have been my password a
few months ago when I was trying to get it to work previously with plugin
pidgin-facebookchat-1.67.exe
Note now though I have it set up to use the XMPP. I have attached the
screenshots of my settings.
I know you do not use the registry, and I have tried to find this password in
my cache, but to no avail.
Other errors in the log indicate I am still using a proxy even though I have
set it to no proxy:
(17:33:49) proxy: Error connecting to chat.facebook.com:5222 (Connection timed
out.).
(17:33:49) proxy: Connection attempt failed: Connection timed out.
(17:33:49) jabber: Couldn't connect directly to chat.facebook.com. Trying to
find alternative connection methods, like BOSH.
(17:33:49) dnssrv: querying TXT record for chat.facebook.com:
_xmppconnect.chat.facebook.com
(17:33:50) dnssrv: Couldn't look up TXT record. DNS server failure. (9002).
Can you please tell me what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks,
Ann Marie
