Hi,

I can't use portable pidgin because I need to use XMPP with SSL and I get the "Invalid certificate chain" error.
I know this is related to the certificate on the server but I need to have a workaround for this.

Could it be an old version of portable pidgin could work for me?
If so, where can I find and download old versions of portable pidgin?
The only version that is available is 2.6.1 that has this problem.

I hope someone can help me out here.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Running on Windows XP Home SP3 "fresh reinstallation". Started it from my USB-Stick and it worked. Later after a system reboot it crashes constantly after something around a minute. It says it's a problem with "libfontconfig-1.dll". I even downgraded to 2.5.8 with the same result!

Connections: 2x ICQ, 2x MSN, 2x Yahoo, 2x IRC, 1x XMPP

When I disable all connections, it does not crash!

After enabling ANY of the connections it crashes.

If somebody got an idea, let me know. If not I'm doomed!!

The 2.6.1 version (portable and not) has a bug that will prevent proper connection to XMPP service (jabber to some).

This is mentioned in bug #9956 at (http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/9956).

The fix is a newer version of libpurple.dll provided at http://pidgin.im/~nosnilmot/2.6.1/srvfix/libpurple.dll.

As you guys should know Pidgin has been updated to v2.6.1 which includes several new features and improvements. Audio & Video anybody? No WIN Support yet but on the way [well if we waited this long, why not just wait a bit longer lol]

Btw, Thanks John for the rapid release of its portable version.

One of the new features in pidgin is the Theme support. I have known and I've been skinning pidgin with the GTK themes, but my question is; What is the different between the old GTK skinning style and newly introduced way?

It's out....

Thanks a lot.

I've been searching and troubleshooting this for hours, to no avail. No doubt the answer is simple, but it escapes me.

I created a 2gb truecrypt virtual encrypted drive.
I then downloaded and installed Pidgin-OTR 3.2 (from the PidginPortable page here) onto this clean volume.

It reports that all went well, but there is no .exe file to be found. The only things it does create are:

M:\PortableApps\PidginPortable

This directory is empty, except for two sub-directories, which have their own sub-directories:

• -App
  ---Pidgin
  -----Locale
  -----Plugins
• -Other

hello,

im a passionate user of pidgin and like the programm very much.

sadly i always get an error when i try to send or receive a file via my icq account embedded in pidgin. OS is win xp.

here is a pic of the error message:

after displaying this one^^ pidgin crashes

desperately looking for a fix ^^

I've done lots of messing and testing to get this to work, and here's the issue.

I've had pidgin crashing a lot, probably a plugin but I'm trying to debug and find out.

To get pidgin to log, you need to use the following switches: "-d 2>&1 > PATH:\To\debug.log when launching pidgin.

The NSIS launcher somehow doesn't pass these correctly. It will create the debug.log, where you have specified, but it still opens a command prompt window and doesn't write any output to the debug.log.

Hi,

I have the latest PuTTY portable in my USB Stick, and I exported the sessions of my local PuTTY sessions to a reg file. This reg file I moved to \PortableApps\PuTTY\Data\settings\putty.reg

When I open the Portable one, PuTTY read the local registry and load it. I want to load my reg file on my USB Stick instead the local registry.

How I can do this?

Greets!

Not sure if this has happened to anyone else, but when I upgraded from 0.7.19 Rev 2 to the 0.8.1 Miranda Portable no longer loads.

The install completes successfully, but then when I launch the app it crashes immediately.

I've used dbtool to make sure my profile is in good order.
