Yahoo: Invalid Screenname

Hi,

 

since some weeks one of my users always gets the message

yahoo@xmpp.myserver.com (Yahoo!): Error

Invalid screen name.

 

Nothing was changed? I am running 3.3.3 with GATE 1.1.3a

I checked the password and the screenname of the user,

deleted the transport - and added it again - same issue.

 

i tried to login with the users yahoo username und his password

in this yahoo 360° web-crap and it worked fine, so i am sure that the user data is correct.

and the mac yahoo client works with this userdata, too.

 

any idea on howto fix that?

 

thank you & best regards,

 

dave

Re: Yahoo: Invalid Screenname

Are you willing to share said screenname?    Unfortunately, otherwise, I don't have any idea.  (you could also tell me every character that's in the screen name ... anything that's not letters and numbers?   spaces?  symbols?)

Re: Yahoo: Invalid Screenname

the username consists just of letters. like something like dsmith.

could i provide a debug log (where to get it?) to help with this issue?

 

best & thanks for your help.

Oh sorry, go into your admin console, Logs, and enable debug logs.  Then it'll show up in those logs.
