Do you join the chat room from some other location with the same username perhaps? Is your account getting disconnected and reconnected and you have the chat set to auto-join? Is someone else in the room using that username? Can you tell us what server this is happening on? Can you get the Help->Debug Window output from this error happening (ideally more than once)? The fact that GNOME bogs down when confronted with many many windows is not something we can do anything about unfortunately. -- Ticket URL: <http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/10612#comment:1> Pidgin <http://pidgin.im> Pidgin _______________________________________________ Tracker mailing list Tracker@... http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tracker

This problem has appeared when joining another place with the same username, but not exclusively - Error windows sometimes appear only once in a whole day. I have set the chat room to auto-join and persistent. This happens on conference.jabber.org. I'll try capturing the debug window and see if it happens again. On the subject of bogging down GNOME, I'm not asking for a fix of GNOME. But Pidgin controls the windows it creates, and should be able to do something to ensure it doesn't spawn hundreds of identical windows. How about incrementing an error counter in the window if it already exists? Or creating an error window only if an identical one doesn't already exist? Yes, I'm using my Gmail account for chat. -- Ticket URL: <http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/10612#comment:3> Pidgin <http://pidgin.im> Pidgin _______________________________________________ Tracker mailing list Tracker@... http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tracker

In order to better handle errors like this the window would need to include a list of the times that the error occurred (I can imagine a scenario where the user would need to know when pidgin had tried and failed to join a room, in office scenarios for example). I would imagine a patch to implement a better error handling system would be accepted (in similar fashion to how the buddy pounces, mail notifications, and buddy list authorization requests have moved to better systems in the recent past). -- Ticket URL: <http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/10612#comment:4> Pidgin <http://pidgin.im> Pidgin _______________________________________________ Tracker mailing list Tracker@... http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tracker

Did you at some point change nicknames in that chatroom or anything like that? Is the error referencing the nickname your second connection is using or the one your first connection is using? The Google Talk servers "push" presence to remote servers about every five minutes (which used to cause a horrendous issue with nickname changes, and possibly still does) which could explain why you keep getting the dialog if it keeps trying to push a the duplicated nickname into the room. -- Ticket URL: <http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/10612#comment:8> Pidgin <http://pidgin.im> Pidgin _______________________________________________ Tracker mailing list Tracker@... http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tracker

Yes Did you at some point change nicknames in that chatroom or anything like that? Yes, this morning. Is the error referencing the nickname your second connection is using or the one your first connection is using? The first nickname - Looks like part of the bug is that Pidgin keeps trying to change to the old nickname, because after restarting Pidgin the error message doesn't appear anymore. -- Ticket URL: <http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/10612#comment:10> Pidgin <http://pidgin.im> Pidgin _______________________________________________ Tracker mailing list Tracker@... http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tracker

Did you change from nicknameA to nicknameB on the first connection then join the room as nicknameA from the second connection? If so that would cause exactly this problem and disconnecting the first connection from the server and reconnecting will "solve" it. As I said, this is almost certainly the Google Talk periodic presence push. -- Ticket URL: <http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/10612#comment:11> Pidgin <http://pidgin.im> Pidgin _______________________________________________ Tracker mailing list Tracker@... http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tracker

No, I am using version control for Pidgin settings, so I had the original nickname on the machine that logged in first. Then I logged in on the second machine, got the conflict message, changed the nickname, and still kept getting the same message. Disconnecting and reconnecting the '''second''' message fixed it. -- Ticket URL: <http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/10612#comment:12> Pidgin <http://pidgin.im> Pidgin _______________________________________________ Tracker mailing list Tracker@... http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tracker

I'd assumed it was happening on the first. Same problem, just in reverse. The issue is that Google Talk re-sends the original presence stanza every five minutes, thus hitting the conflict every five minutes. -- Ticket URL: <http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/10612#comment:13> Pidgin <http://pidgin.im> Pidgin _______________________________________________ Tracker mailing list Tracker@... http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tracker
