I too am having the same issue.  I get the notorious 'not authorized' message and it seems that no matter what I change I cannot get past that particular error.  I would appreciate any info as well.

is lunchbox the name of your jabber service running on the server or the physical server's dns name?

Well I guess it's progress, I no longer get a 'not authorized' message.... It just hangs and does nothing.  Dang.

okay here is what looks like an error in my debug log

Seems to me I am trying to make an SSL connection over a plaintext connection.  I suppose it doesn't like that.  I DO want to make an SSL connection as I am required to by the company.  Here is my HTML

return {
             &n bsp;  server: "jabber.llbean.com",
             &n bsp;  connectionType:"http",
             &n bsp;  port: "7443",
             &n bsp;  bindPath:"/http-bind/",
             &n bsp;  autoLogin:"false"
             &n bsp;  };

I think my connectiontype and bindpath are wrong.  What would be the correct setting for SSL?  Any other ideas regardless of how crazy will be welcomed.

i believe that's the only way you can link the connection between sparkweb and the openfire server. it's the last line on my opening admin page:

All addresses

5229

Flash Cross Domain

Service that allows Flash clients connect to other hostnames and ports.

Well thanks for the newer config, my error has changed anyway.

I get no messages in my browser anymore it just hangs.  I am at a loss.

I'll just add a second to this as well, ive got the same issue and it happened once i upgraded to 3.6.0a its been working fine up untill that point. Granted I experienced the upgrade database issue that many other did but after the repair it seems everything else is running ok. Anyone have a solution?

I have already tried that config and with the version from the igniterealtime.org. Not working for me. It seems that a big part of users is experiencing that and only a few ones get it working again. Though, it should be working with old socket config too. Daniel said it works fine at igniterealtime.org. Well, it seems we have to wait till next version and revert to 3.5.2. Not me personally. I dont need SparkWeb that much.
