I can't find anything about my question there. If PidginPortable 2.10.9 is outdated, where can I find actual version?
presuming i understand your q from pidgin
https://www.pidgin.im/download/windows/
as I said above, my 2.10.9 XMPP connections are OK
2.10.10 looks like a security rather than bug fix so i can't say why your XMPP connections aren't working, any solution will be in pidgin itself and nothing to do with the PA implementation
Wm
But when I install pidgin 2.10.9 on pc normally, its work without any errors. It turns out that XMPP does not work exactly in portable version.
no-one is likely to help you when
a) 2.10.10 is due real soon now (being built as I write)
b) you have a working if non-portable install [1]
c) you haven't given enough detail anyway
I repeat, my XMPP connections are fine, maybe if someone else has the same problem they'll help you.
[1] why did you get 2.10.9 from pidgin rather than 2.10.10 ?
Wm
The error occur due to long path to pidgin directory. Pidgin work fine, when I put it to the root directory.
you gain respect for saying that
do you think something in PA should be changed or something in Pidgin ?
Wm
I think its Pidgin feature.
Same problem, as i find on this forum https://portableapps.com/node/25738
that is from 2010 so unlikely to be directly related
Wm
I tried pidgin 2.7.7, its give me the same error.
