I just upgraded from beta5 to beta6 (windows build), and am now getting an error message when I start gaim.
"Could not add the buddy 1 for an unknown reason. The most common reason for this is that you have the maximum number of allowed buddies in your buddy list."
It only occurs once when I first start gaim, and doesn't seem to have any effect on my accounts. I tried logging on with a different client to trim some old buddies, but that didn't help, and there was no buddy '1'.
Anyone else getting this?

I have the same issue - looks like it is related to something in ICQ. If I disable my ICQ account I no longer see this message (in fact it comes up every time I enable the ICQ account).

You have an old installed version of gaim that wasn't properly removed.
Uninstall gaim, then delete the "C:\Programme\Gaim" directory and install
the new version.
Worked for me so you can try it i guess.

I uninstalled, deleted the Gaim directory and I still have the error. "Could not add the buddy 1 for an unknown reason. The most common reason for this is that you have the maximum number of allowed buddies in your buddy list."
I run mirandia as well and this only shows up in Gaim 2.0 beta 6.

Its a gaim bug i submitted a ticket on it, no way to fix it i guess but wait for a update...

I think it could have thome thing to do, with this error in the debuglog
"(**:**:**) oscar: ssi: Action 0x0008 was unsuccessful with error 0x0001"
What's the bug number?
Wait a admin just messaged me and told me

I have the same problem, uninstallation doesn't help :-(
I log into icq and Buddy1 one is there as an AIM user..
Same problem here under Mandriva 2007. I deinstalled the old version of gaim and deleted /home/username/.gaim/ and i still get this message.
