My guess is that you are using an old version of the presence plugin. The last modification we made to the plugin and JM 2.2 was to skip the login window. So make sure to be using JM 2.2 or newest and the latest presence plugin.
The port number’‘s not the problem. Although it wasn’‘t in the url that I cut and pasted from the documentation, it was in the url that I was submitting to the server. If I didn’‘t have it in there I wouldn’'t have gotten any response at all.
Here’‘s the HTTP request from my browser to the jive server and it’'s response::
GET /plugins/presence/status?jid=bwinkler@pls-net.org&type=xml HTTP/1.1
Host: jive:9090
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050727 Firefox/1.0.4
I tried to access a user presence by writing the URL in browser. It is OK in Mozilla, but not in MSIE nor telnet to port 9090. I think that additional CRLF in response cause this.
In telnet case, I have to ENTER 3 times, and I got the response. Normally, it only takes 2 ENTERs.
