Cannot authorize my ICQ account

Tue Nov 16, 2010 8:58 am
Today I swithced on my PC. After KDE started Kopete said:
"The password was wrong. Please, re-enter your password for ICQ account"
I tried a few times. No results.
After I went on icq.com and logged in using my current account without any problems.
Last night Kopete worked nice. No packages were installed, no KDE configs were changed.
What's going on?

P.S. Then I tried ICQ7 messenger. It connected OK.

Same problem here, using Kopete 1.0.80

Probably ICQ changed something in the protocol.

I found the bug report:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=257008

The workaround worked for me.

It is already filled by someone:

There is also a decision:
Works for me after I changed the ICQ login server to login.icq.com:5190.

Fix (changing server domain address) worked for me too.
