SASL plain authentication -> No response from the server (smack 3.0.4)

Hi,

 

i have read a couple of threads about gmail authentication (![http://www.igniterealtime.org/issues/images/icons/bug.gif!] SMACK-224 - related) - but it didn't help me unfortunately ..

i'm trying to authenticate with gmx (gmx.at) but no combination of sasl authentication, plain sasl authentication, non-sasl authentication, security mode disabled, enabled, etc. seems to work

 

packets sent:

AHNvbWVfYm9keQBUaGVCZXN0 packets received: PLAIN PLAIN PLAIN PLAIN stack trace: SCHWERWIEGEND: Error while validating account (id: {some_body@gmx.at}) net.sphene.goim.core.exceptions.GOIMException: Error while trying to validate account: No response from the server. at net.sphene.goim.protocol.jabber.connection.JabberAccountConnection.validateAccount(JabberAccountConnection.java:391) at net.sphene.goim.protocol.jabber.ui.wizards.account.AccountWizard$1.run(AccountWizard.java:62) at org.eclipse.jface.operation.ModalContext$ModalContextThread.run(ModalContext.java:113) Caused by: No response from the server.: at org.jivesoftware.smack.SASLAuthentication.bindResourceAndEstablishSession(SASLAuthentication.java:307) at org.jivesoftware.smack.SASLAuthentication.authenticate(SASLAuthentication.java:214) at org.jivesoftware.smack.XMPPConnection.login(XMPPConnection.java:341) at net.sphene.goim.protocol.jabber.connection.JabberAccountConnection.validateAccount(JabberAccountConnection.java:387) ... 2 more any ideas ? i can also post the transcript+backtrace of NonSASL authentication if that helps ? (btw. i have tried it with another jabber client - psi .. it doesn't use SASL - and the main difference seems to be that it doesn't have the 'version="1.0"' in the ]]> tag .. - but maybe it simply uses another auth protocol .. i have no idea about that stuff unfortunately )

 

thanks,

  herbert

What are you trying to do? I use gmx for email, and I'm not aware that they provide a XMPP (jabber) service at all (and I went to look again).

 

You can't send/receive emails with smack.

lol, yeah .. i didn't know it either (although i've never used gmx) - before a user told me that my IM won't work for gmx's jabber server..

but see here: https://stpeter.im/?p=1866

 

or simply ask nc:

kahless@localhost ~ $ nc gmx.at 5222

some_body some_body ]]>

kahless@localhost ~ $

 

so .. my question remains .. am i doing something wrong ? how can i connect to the gmx.* jabber servers with smack ? (PSI can do it, others probably too)

 

should i provide an example code or something ?

 

 

thanks,

  herbert

Hah, you learn something new everyday.

 

Ok, to connect using plain-text and no SASL, I use


// turn off SASL
conConfig.setSASLAuthenticationEnabled(false);
// allow plain text
conConfig.setSecurityMode(
    ConnectionConfiguration.SecurityMode.enabled);

 

And you say you tried it... All that's left is to ask the guys that run the server at GMX...

I still can't find any trace of it on GMX, is it about the MultiMessenger? In which case they might be adapting the protocol to a more proprietary thing...

 

On heise.de, the commentaries mention it only works with new email accounts, not old ones.
