#3 MGTalk cannot connect to Wildfire3.1.0

[Mark McNamee]

Hi,

I have been using MGTalk on a Nokia 6230i in the UK,
connecting to my own Wildwire server (version 2.6.1).
(http://www.jivesoftware.org/wildfire/)
Recently I've upgraded that to 3.1.0, and for some
reason, MGTalk will no longer connect.

No SSL
Port 5222
No status changes on connect.

The error I get from MGTalk is:
---
Connecting...
Init connection to socket://HOSTNAME:5222
Opening first stream
Authenticating
Sending authorization data
Waiting for response
Next authorization step
Opening next stream
---
The GRPS connection then closes.

I suspect the server might have some different defaults
in the new version, which are causing MGTalk to get
confused?

Before this, MGTalk was working superbly! :-)

I get the exact same problem in the 6230i Emulator from
Nokia's SDK.

Since I have not changed any settings in MGTalk, and I
have upgraded the Wildfire server, it's most likely
that something has changed in the server!

I wanted to raise a bug, so you were aware of the
issue, and if you have any free time, perhaps to
investigate.

Cheers,
Mark

Hi,

I have raise a support request on the Wildfire (Jive
Software) forum, for reference it is here:

http://www.jivesoftware.org/community/message.jspa?messageID=132595

I hope between the parties this issue can be resolved, as
MGTalk is a great way of keeping in touch on the move using
Jabber.

Hello,

There are two things to do to fix this:

In NetworkThread

1. Uncomment the connections settings in initConnection
conn = (SocketConnection) Connector.open(addr);
conn.setSocketOption(SocketConnection.LINGER, 0);
conn.setSocketOption(SocketConnection.SNDBUF, 30);
conn.setSocketOption(SocketConnection.RCVBUF, 30);
conn.setSocketOption(SocketConnection.KEEPALIVE, 1);

2. In startSession wildfire and MGTalk can't seem to agree
on the MD5 Digest info. I could not find anyway to turn off
MD5 on wildfire so I commented out the if statement:

if(x.child("mechanisms").hasValueOfChild("DIGEST-MD5")) {
...
}

and just left the plaintext part:

//PLAIN authorization supported by GTalk
server in SSL mode
log("Using plain authorization");
String resp = "\0"+user+"\0"+pass;
writeToAir("<auth
xmlns=\"urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-sasl\"
echanism=\"PLAIN\">"+MD5.toBase64(resp.getBytes())+"</auth>");
log.addMessage("Starting PLAIN
authorization");
x = readStanza();
if(x.getName().equals("failure"))
throw new Exception("PLAIN
authorization error");

FWIW it now works in Openfire 3.3.1+
