I’m currently running Spark 2.5.5 on MacOSX but cannot figure out how to get jingle to work.
There’s no icon to allow me to make a call like I see in the user guide.
I have the jingle 1.0 plugin installed.
Does jingle require the use of the openfire server?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
FWIW, I discovered that spark 2.5.5 doesn’t have smackx-jingle.jar so I downloaded the latest smack jars, installed them with the rest of the spark jars, and then made sure to add them to my classpath but still no jingle. I would love to get this working.
When you control click the user you wish to do a voice chat there is a Dial icon. Selecting that and choose Computer to Computer. This will place a call to the users that you selected. There is one catch, that users also needs to have the same Spark client as you to have that service work. Not for nothing, I have not had much luck getting PC users to be able to connect back to my Mac, the application seems to just crap out on me and quit. I wish iChats voice was supported to connect to Spark.
Does jingle require the use of the openfire server?
Jingle is P2P, so the problem should not be found in the configuration of Openfire or the Jabber server of the other contact. Anyway, if you ca’t get it to work you also can try Coccinella.
I´m not sure if there is no server necessary. You can read at the Openfire STUN settings:
STUN is a protocol that lets clients discover their network settings, including firewall and NAT device configuration. Use of the protocol is required for clients to establish peer to peer media sessions.
could that be the reason, why I can´t see dial icons?
but how do I configure STUN just for internal use (also between some sites)?
I couldn´t find step by step documentation for implementing jingle.
In our company we have implemented Spark Openfire server and client.
We are now testing the new Spark 2.6.0 RC 1 in Windows XP to make calls PC to PC but does not work, gives the same error message than “AsciiReign”
“Voice call ended: no half recieve”
